Rating: 4.9 (146 reviews)

An asymmetric nose can appear crooked or off-center, affecting the harmony of your facial features and sometimes even impairing nasal function. Through Scarless Nose® Rhinoplasty, you can achieve a more balanced, symmetrical look without external scars.

What Is an Asymmetric Nose?

Nasal asymmetry may be subtle or quite noticeable, manifesting as a twisted or off-center tip or bridge. This can occur naturally or develop after an injury. Asymmetry may also affect airflow, leading some patients to seek aesthetic correction and functional improvement.

Some common causes include the following:

Genetics: Natural variations in cartilage and bone often result in asymmetry.
Trauma: Any significant blow or fracture to the nose can cause misalignment.
Deviated Septum: A crooked septum can distort the nose externally.
Previous Surgeries: Scar tissue or incomplete alignment in a prior rhinoplasty can leave the nose asymmetrical.

Transform Your Profile

Led by Dr. Deepak Dugar—a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon with a legacy of specialized training—The Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty Center™ is a global destination for closed rhinoplasty. Patients trust Dr. Dugar’s advanced, scar-free techniques to deliver beautiful and functional results.

How Scarless Nose Rhinoplasty Can Help

Using a closed approach, Dr. Dugar accesses and refines the nasal bones from within, making precise internal modifications. By reducing or repositioning the bony framework, he narrows the bridge to better harmonize with the rest of the face. The Scarless Nose® method ensures these adjustments remain hidden inside the nostrils—there are no external scars on the columella.

Am I a Good Candidate for an Asymmetrical Nose Procedure?

You may find yourself an ideal candidate for this refined procedure if the following resonate with your experience or aesthetic desires:

You are in good overall health
You do not have significant underlying conditions (e.g., severe bleeding disorders, uncontrolled diabetes) that could affect surgery or recovery
You are a nonsmoker or can refrain from smoking for the recommended duration
You wish to address a wide nasal bridge without external incisions
You have realistic expectations and are prepared to follow pre- and post-operative instructions

What to Expect During an Asymmetric Nose Rhinoplasty

Once under general anesthesia, Dr. Dugar makes internal incisions and carefully adjusts the nasal framework. This can involve trimming cartilage, repositioning the septum, or making subtle changes to the nasal tip. The surgery typically takes one to two hours, depending on the complexity of the asymmetry.

Recovery and Results for an Asymmetrical Nose Rhinoplasty

As you begin your recovery, know that every stage is part of the process. Here’s what to expect as you heal:

Mild Swelling: Swelling and light bruising may occur, subsiding significantly within the first two weeks.
Supportive Splint: In some cases, a small external splint is placed to maintain proper alignment during the early healing phase.
Improved Symmetry: As swelling decreases, the nose appears more balanced, enhancing overall facial harmony.
Breathing Benefits: Correcting asymmetry often relieves obstructed airflow, improving nasal function.

Asymmetric Nose Rhinoplasty FAQs

Can uneven nostrils be corrected, with an asymmetric nose procedure too?

Yes. If one nostril appears larger or higher, Dr. Dugar can address this issue internally while maintaining a scar-free result.

Is it normal for the nose to look swollen or asymmetric right after surgery?

Yes. Swelling can temporarily distort the nose. Final symmetry becomes more evident as healing progresses.

How soon can I see family or friends?

Once the majority of bruising and bandaging are gone, most patients feel comfortable being around others within a week or two.

What if I also need a septoplasty when I get the asymmetric nose procedure?

A septoplasty to correct a deviated septum can be performed concurrently, improving both appearance and function in one procedure.

Will I need revision surgery later?

If performed by an experienced specialist, most patients find their results long-lasting. Revision rates vary, but Dr. Dugar’s expertise greatly reduces the likelihood of needing further surgery.
