My nostrils are not symmetrical. Should I have this corrected?
Published on by Batniji Facial Plastic Surgery
I had a nose job a couple years ago from a doctor in SoCal who is now retired. I am satisfied with the shape. However the nostrils do not seem symmetrical. Should I have this corrected or just forget about it?
Symmetry is a challenge in facial plastic surgery and most facial plastic surgeons discourage patients from having symmetry as a goal of surgery. Most patients have underlying facial Asymmetries and it is important to appreciate these asymmetries for what they are and that while we may be able to achieve LESS Asymmetry, the goal of symmetry should be discouraged.
