Hello, I have had an indented line/curve down the middle of my nose my whole life. It is only really noticeable in certain lighting but it has always bothered me. I would like to know if this is some kind of deformity or just the genetic makeup of my nose (my mother's nose shape is similar, but not as indented). I have never seen anyone with my type of nose before. Is there anything non-surgical that can be done to correct this? Or if surgery is required, how extensive would it be?
