Can deviated septum surgery help with excessive widening while smiling? (Photos)

Asked By:goombaa in Stallings, North Carolina

My nose is a bit goofy, and ill probably end up getting deviated septum surgery eventually because one side often hurts. But one other thing I've noticed about my nose is how much it widens when I smile, its like there is no rigidity to it. I don't mind a big nose, but it is a little annoying when I smile. Can a deviated septum procedure help this? Or could I fix this issue while also fixing the deviated septum? Oh yeah, I would definitely prefer a permanent fix, not Botox.
