My nose looks different on each side. What can I do to fix this? (Photos)

Thank you for your question. What you’re noticing is actually very common. No human face is perfectly symmetrical. During early development, the two sides of the face form and fuse, which naturally leads to subtle differences from left to right. On top of that, most of us have a dominant eye, which can influence how we perceive balance in photographs and mirrors — it’s one of the reasons people tend to have a “favorite side” in photos.

From the oblique-angle photos you provided, it’s difficult to say definitively whether a nonsurgical option (such as a liquid rhinoplasty using filler) or a surgical rhinoplasty would be the most appropriate. Fillers can be helpful for camouflaging certain contour irregularities and creating the appearance of improved symmetry. However, if the asymmetry is due to underlying cartilage or bone shape, surgery may provide a more predictable and lasting correction.

I’d recommend consulting with a facial plastic surgeon who performs both surgical and nonsurgical rhinoplasty routinely. They’ll be able to assess the structural elements of your nose in person and guide you toward the option that aligns best with your goals.

You’re asking all the right questions — the next step is simply meeting with the right specialist to tailor the plan to your anatomy.

It's hard to tell for sure because there is no frontal view, but often times, a nose looks different from each side because of a little crookedness. From the photos, you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty as the small bump can be reduced and the tip droop corrected. You can't be guaranteed that it will look perfect from every angle, but if you have a rhinoplasty expert do your surgery, it should look much nicer.

Facial asymmetry (and body's) is a natural feature of all humans, that's why you have different profiles, like we all do, don't get fixated on that and do not try to surgically or non surgically correct it, because it's unfeasible.

It’s completely normal to notice subtle asymmetries in the nose — in fact, almost everyone has them. The nose sits at the very center of the face, so even slight differences in bone structure, cartilage shape, or skin thickness on each side can become noticeable under certain lighting or angles.

In your case, what you’re describing could be due to natural nasal asymmetry, mild differences in the cartilage or nasal bone, or even previous swelling or volume changes that make one side appear a bit different.

The best approach depends on how significant the asymmetry is and what kind of correction you’re looking for:

Dermal filler (non-surgical rhinoplasty) – can smooth out small irregularities, subtly even the contour, and balance both sides without surgery. This works best for minor asymmetries or contour dips.

Surgical rhinoplasty – is a more permanent solution if the asymmetry comes from deeper structural differences, like cartilage shape or nasal bone alignment.

Both options can give natural-looking improvements when done conservatively and with attention to balance rather than complete “perfection.” The goal is to enhance harmony so your features look symmetrical in a way that still feels like you.

Based on the two post photos of the side views, I would recommend fillers to attain more symmetry. Best of virtual consult with. Expect fees to range from $500-$1200 and maybe one or two injection sessions
