Could my septum possibly be deviated? (Photo)

I can appreciate asymmetry at the base of your nose in your photographs, and if this is associated with nasal obstruction, you probably do have a deviated nasal septum. Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialist so you could discuss your concerns and have a plan to move forward. I hope this helps and thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Your nose is asymmetrical and you have a concavity on one side. It is possible that you have septal deviation as well. In addition, you may have internal nasal valve collapse. You will need to be evaluated in person. You will more than likely need a rhinoplasty with possible septoplasty.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.
