Crooked Nose Bridge After Rhinoplasty Normal? (photo)

Even with pictures it's impossible to make a decision about whether or not your nose is going to end up straight. You need to quit agonizing about it and let the swelling resolve.

Thanks for the question. If your surgeon performed lateral osteotomies, which are controlled fractures on the sides of the nose where the nose meets the cheek, it's possible that your nasal bones have shifted to one side or the other. These osteotomies are done very routinely in rhinoplasty and can be used to straighten the nose, narrow the width of the upper part of the nose, or restore a normal shape to the bridge after removal of a hump. The nasal bones take around 6-8 weeks to heal after surgery and during this time, they can be pushed back to the middle in the office by your surgeon. He or she may also have you then perform nasal exercises, in which you push on the nasal bones at home with your finger to keep them straight. Once the bones have healed, straightening them generally requires going back to surgery. Since you have this relatively short window when the bones are still mobile, I would highly suggest that you get in to see your surgeon promptly.
