Perhaps due to genetic factors, both my father and I have slightly crooked nasal bridges, giving the impression of mild nasal deformity. I would like to ask: Is it possible to correct the nasal bridge?

Hello, a crooked nasal bridge not only affects facial appearance but may also lead to functional issues. Nasal bridge deformities can be congenital or acquired—resulting from external trauma, chronic pressure, or poor lifestyle habits—and can be corrected surgically. For mild cases, autologous fat grafting or implantation of a synthetic nasal implant may be performed at the depressed nasal area. In more severe cases, partial resection or reshaping of the nasal cartilage may be required. The specific surgical approach should be determined after an in-person consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon at a hospital. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
