Had a septoplastia rinoplastia (more septoplasty) on my right nostril as I couldn't breathe through it properly. Just had the surgery and upon checking when lifted my face to check my nostrils, it appears the outside tip of my nose appears bent? Also I was told excess cartilage was to be removed from my right nostril but still appears from the outside wider (sticking out) more than the left cartilage of the nose? Is this all normal for recovery?
