My Face Looks Different in the Right and Left Side. My Nose Uneven. Nose is Shifted to the Left Nostril and the Convex? (photo)

We all have facial asymmetry to some degree. A rhinoplasty can help improve the symmetry of your nose. I would recommend seeking the advice of a board certified rhinoplasty specialist. He or she will be able to evaluate your nose in person and provide you with recommendations. Computer imaging software may be used to give you an idea of how the final result of surgery may appear. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck. 

Your photos show several areas of nasal asymmetry.  The first step in evaluating what type of surgery should be done is to consult with one or more rhinoplasty surgeons and review standardized photographs to identify the specific problems with your nose and develop a plan for how to correct them.

Rhinoplasty to make a more aesthetic looking nose that is more symmetrical is possible. This should be done by a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. While the nose is never perfect it can be made much better looking.

Thank you for your question and the pictures. In all faces, there is a certain degree of asymmetry between sides. This is well-documented in scientific studies and is easily seen if you make a composite photo of your own face using two right or two left sides.  That being said, your nose definitely has some asymmetry which can be corrected. The best approach for this, in my opinion, is an open rhinoplasty.  This allows better control of the structural elements of the nose -- cartilage and bone -- through direct visualization. Best of luck moving forward!

      The shape of the nose and the asymmetry can be improved with a closed rhinoplasty.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.
