A crooked or twisted nose is one that appears to be noticeably asymmetrical. In many cases, the cause of a twisted nose in Newport Beach is general facial trauma, such as could occur from a major automobile accident. If you have a twisted nose, you will want to be sure that you are working with a talented surgeon who can carefully perform the necessary rhinoplasty and restore your nose to its beautiful and symmetrical proportions.
Consult Dr. Tavoussi About the Shape of Your Nose
When you come to the OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Newport Beach with a twisted nose, we will begin with a complete consultation to determine the exact cause of your nasal issues and to decide which procedure would best solve your complaint. Dr. Tavoussi will discuss the condition and possible treatments with you while also performing a physical examination of your nose. He may be able to discover old fracture lines that healed poorly or even an asymmetrical septum that is affecting your breathing. You may require a rhinoplasty or a rhinoplasty along with a septoplasty depending on the extent of the problem.
Of course, your twisted nose may not have developed following an injury. Some other causes could include a birth defect, a previous nose surgery, or even a tumor. These issues may have changed the shape and structure of the bone, cartilage, and soft tissues in and on your nose.
Procedures & Treatments for Nose Concerns
If your twisted nose is causing you functional concerns, such as difficulty breathing, you may qualify to have treatment covered by insurance. However, if you wish to have a rhinoplasty mainly for cosmetic benefits, you will probably have to pay for it on your own. You can ask our office about payment plans and other financial options that can help you get the treatments that you need in Newport Beach.
Finally, you should consider whether minimally invasive treatments could correct your twisted nose. If you are only dealing with minor crookedness, Dr. Tavoussi may be able to help you achieve the shape and size of nose that you want using dermal fillers that provide additional volume in soft tissues on the nose to offset any crookedness.
While deviated septums are quite common and can occur in up to 80 percent of people, most individuals do not struggle with highly visible twisted noses. If you are feeling embarrassed over the shape of your nose, contact the OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Newport Beach today.
