A member asked:
Is it possible to correct a crooked nose after a long time?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: It would require an actual rhinoplasty though. When a nose is freshly fractured, it can be reduced and set to close to what it was. After a long time, a surgeon has to freshly break bones of your nose and reset it to correct it.

Yes: Yes. Rhinoplasty is the most complex facial cosmetic procedure. Make sure your surgeon is an ENT surgeon or facial plastic surgeon
