A member asked:

Can a deviated septum surgery straighten my nose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Crooked nose: A deviated septum can contribute to the appearance of a crooked nose but correcting the septal deviation may not be enough to straighten your nose. Have your nose evaluated by a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
