Answer: What could make a nose look crooked? What could make a nose look crooked? A nose could look crooked because of a deviated septum, or because of displacement of the nasal bones from their normal position. The former is usually developmental while the latter is usually due to trauma. In some cases it may be a combination of both. At any rate, procedures to straighten a crooked nose include rhinoplasty and septoplasty and in many cases both done in conjunction with each other. If the deviation of the nose is causing asymmetry of the nostrils, there may be partial or full correction of the asymmetry after surgery. However in some cases the nostril asymmetry may be more complicated and require additional procedures.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photos It is hard. to make a proper evaluation without enough photos. If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. However, the asymmetry between your nostrils can be improved with rhinoplasty surgery. Please keep in mind that %100 symmetry is not achievable in any cases. Best Regards!
