My nose lays to the left (as does my septum) and I have been planning to get that fixed for as long as I can remember. However, recently I noticed one eye is higher than the other. If I were to fix my nose, would attention be drawn to my uneven eyes? Or would the difference be negligible?
Answer: Septoplasty Septoplasty will only address the mid wall partition inside and not the sidewalls of the nose. Thus it usually will have none to minor effects externally. If there is a significant deviation externally, it will best be addressed by a septorhinoplsty.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Septoplasty for breathing, rhinoplasty to straight and narrow the nose A septoplasty is performed in the back of the nose to improve airflow dynamics when there's twisted bone and cartilage blocking airflow. A septoplasty is performed for medical necessity, and will not change the shape of the nose. A Rhinoplasty procedure can accomplish narrowing and straightening the external portion of the nose to make it more straight and symmetrical. Both a septoplasty and a rhinoplasty procedure can be performed at the same time, however expect to pay for the cosmetic rhinoplasty yourself.

Answer: Does a deviated septum surgery change my appearance? A septoplasty will not change your outward appearance. All of the work is done from the inside. If you combined the surgery with rhinoplasty to straighten your nose, it will change your appearance slightly. It has nothing to do with uneven eyes, and shouldn't draw any attention to that. Be well!

Answer: Facial asymmetry Everyone have asymmetries to their facial features. I think if you had your nose straightened, this would help to harmonize better with your facial features. I don't think your eyes would become a new issue that is more noticeable. Best of luck.
