What Is a Crooked Nose?

Restore nasal function and a beautiful line, too!

A crooked nose is, quite literally, a nose whose bridge is bent or curved, either from birth or from later trauma. It can cause nasal conditions such as nasal obstruction and headaches, so correction through crooked nose surgery is recommended.

We precisely elevate the periosteum surrounding the nasal bone to fit the size of the implant, then insert the implant so that the periosteum holds it in place. This raises the nasal bridge safely and naturally, without the bridge bending or shifting.

Crooked Nose Surgical Methods

The technique varies depending on whether the curve is in the nasal bone or the septal cartilage, and on its severity.
