Hello~

​

💛your beauty universe! This is Weverse Plastic Surgery :)💛

The vertical wall located in the center of the nose is called the nasal septum.

A deviated septum refers to a condition where this septum is bent.

Those with a deviated septum often experience issues such as nasal congestion, headaches, and difficulty breathing.

​

A crooked nose can occur due to two main reasons: congenital factors or trauma.

In many cases, both the bone and cartilage are bent together.

​

Both a deviated septum and a crooked nose share the common trait of being bent.

Today, we will explore whether a crooked nose and a deviated septum are related.

​

​

Do a crooked nose and a deviated septum always occur together?

We need to understand the nose and the septum from a three-dimensional perspective.

Usually, when we talk about a deviated septum, we mean that the middle part of the septum is bent, narrowing the nasal cavity.

However, when we talk about a crooked nose, we are referring to the externally visible part,

so a crooked nose and a deviated septum do not necessarily have a direct correlation.

​

The externally visible part consists of the nasal bone, the septum, and the alar cartilage.

A nose may appear crooked because the nasal bone is bent, or because the dorsal part of the septum is bent.

​

It is not uncommon to see cases where the dorsal part of the septum is bent, but the middle part of the septum is straight.

​

Also, there are cases where the alar cartilages are severely asymmetrical, making the nasal tip look twisted.

​

Overall, the nose might appear crooked because the facial axis itself is bent and misaligned.

Therefore, we can conclude that having a crooked nose does not always mean it is accompanied by a deviated septum.
