Asymmetrical nose dome & deviated septum. What are my options? (Photo)

Question

Mid 30’s. Never had surgery to my nose. Nose tip assymetry of left dome; more firm & larger than the right side. Bump can be seen from right profile. I have issues breathing out of my right side when stuffed up, my nose veers a little to the right, & I couldn’t fit the covid swab all the way back on this side. Possible deviated septum? I’d like to correct the septum & the assymetry to the tip. I’m in Surrey, BC. What are the options & estimated cost range please?

A rhinoplasty/septoplasty could be performed to correct this.  The procedure takes 2 hours to perform under general anesthesia and cost $7,000.

Best Wishes,

Your up close photos show the asymmetry, however, this is something that would require rhinoplasty surgery to address, in all likelihood. This should be reserved for severe dissatisfaction with the appearance of your nose. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Based on your photos, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. The fullness of the bridge and tip can be reduced some, and the inside can be done at the same time. Be sure to see an expert rhinoplasty surgeon that can do computer imaging at the same time.

Hi , septorhinoplasty correct the septum (function) of the nose then the surgeon carries on with the rhinoplasty to enhance the shape of the nose.It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery 
process.
