A female asked:
How, exactly, does a septoplasty fix a deviated septum? Does the surgeon take off some cartilate from the side with the smaller nostril? Actually cut off and move the whole septum? I'm confused and don't really understand the explanations i've read.

I had a septoplasty with turbinate reduction three weeks ago. My septum is still visibly running diagonal and bulging on one side leaving one nostril all but closed. Will this improve, or did the painful operation likely fail?

For plastic surgeons, I have had a rhinoplasty and then corrective septoplasty. Still, my nose is not straight. My septum is not aligned w/ my center lip by mm. Im curious if filler could move the tip of my nose to appear aligned with my Cupids Bow?
