Different nasal sides after 2 rhinoplasties, can this be fixed? (Photos)

Question

I’ve had two rhinoplasties in the past and I am not satisfied. It’s been a while now since my revision.My left nasal wall is concave and flat compared to the right side where its more elevated. I didn’t have this issue prior the surgeries. The deformity occurred after my first surgery and the doc ignored me. My revision doctor didn’t manage to address it either. It’s very visible for me and makes me depressed. I feel like I am the only person in the world with the issue. Can this be fixed?

Based on your photos, you appear to have a pleasing nasal appearance. I do see an indentation along your left nasal sidewall, just above your tip, and your right nostril margin appears to be a drop higher than your left. Depending upon your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections maybe considered for permanently filling in this indentation and for lowering your right nostril margin for improved frontal nasal symmetry. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photos your nose seems like crooked to the one side even after 2 rhinoplasty. For get rid of this image and gain more straight, elegant and natural looking nose I recommend you revision rhinoplasty surgery. Best Regards!

William Portuese, MD · Answer

There's no perfect nose, and rhinoplasty can give some improvement, usually in the 85 to 95% range. Never 100%. You can consider placement of either a cartilage graft or a fascia graft to that area to try to make it look more symmetrical. A third rhinoplasty procedure is going to be less predictable than your first, so it's important to have realistic expectations.
