A Crooked Nose Can Happen After
Rhinoplasty Too
There is an old adage among surgeons that “The only surgeon who has no complications is the surgeon who does not operate.”
Sometimes after a well-intended rhinoplasty surgery, the nose may have a bit of crookedness where there was no apparent crookedness before. The answer to that surprising fact is that typically when one has a rhinoplasty, the bridge is lowered as the hump or bump is removed. When one lowers the bridge of the nose, it may be discovered that the internal support of the septum is crooked. If the surgeon did not either recognize this crookedness or did not deal with it adequately, the end result may be that the nose is crooked. Now there is a remedy for that. If it is minor, it can be improved by injecting the concave part of the crookedness with a filling injection. But that is limited to those cases where the nose is not already wide. More commonly, it would require a 20-minute touchup whereby entirely through internal incisions, the crooked septum which is now playing a part in the appearance of the nose is straightened.
