Signs of a Deviated Nose After Rhinoplasty Requiring Immediate Follow-Up

Summary: After rhinoplasty, if you notice your nose is crooked, asymmetrical, difficult to breathe through, or has prolonged swelling, please contact the clinic immediately for a medical evaluation. Deviation can be caused by natural swelling, surgical technique, or improper post-operative care. Adhering to the follow-up schedule and recommended post-operative care plan at BonBoz Clinic helps minimize complications and ensures a safe recovery of your nose shape.

If you notice your nose is crooked, asymmetrical, or different from expected after rhinoplasty, please contact us immediately for a follow-up examination. This is an indication that the results are not as expected, requiring timely evaluation and intervention.

Signs of a crooked nose to watch out for: After surgery, your nose may look different than before. If you experience any of the following symptoms, you should schedule a follow-up visit immediately:

• The nose is off-center, leaning to one side when viewed from the front.
• The nose is crooked or warped, not forming a straight line from the bridge to the tip.
• The nostrils are asymmetrical, with one side sitting higher than the other.
• The nasal tip is deviated to the left or right relative to the face.
• An unusual sensation or appearance that differs from the pre-operative interactive imaging.
• Difficulty breathing or a feeling of congestion in the nostrils, especially if it only affects one side.
• Swelling, redness, or pus discharge from the nose after the incision has already healed.
