5 months post septorhinoplasty. Hello! I have a few concerns. My tip goes to my left (it didn't before), my surgeon says he doesn't think it will improve much now. He did a teostrut to the left of my septum. I can feel the graft and it is not central. What doesn't help is that the right side of my tip seems to be lacking cartilage and I think I also might have valve collapse on the right side. What do you think caused these issues? How could this be improved? Thank you for your advice.

Hi @laniiii138459! Nostril asymmetry will not likely improve with steroid injections. A revision rhinoplasty may be necessary, but I would wait at least 12 months for all swelling to subside. Best of luck!
