About This Patient
Male, Age 20
Case Details
This 20 year old college student came to our Palo Alto office with nasal obstruction and a crooked nose. Before heading back to school, he wanted to have surgery to improve his breathing and address the external shape of the nose. It was very important to the patient to maintain a masculine nose but to address some of the asymmetries that bothered him. We performed a septoplasty and Rhinoplasty to address both of his concerns.
He remains very pleased with his result. Most of all he can breathe great through the nose and feels that the change in his nasal shape achieved everything he wanted, leaving him with a natural result that he is comfortable with.
