What can be done with my nose? (born with a cleft pallet)

I was born with a cleft pallet, and I'm looking into rhinoplasty. I've already recieved 2 prior procedures. I've been thinking about this since I was 10, now I'm officially looking into this.

So, what can be done with my nose? I obviously want it more symmetrical, slimmer, and a tad bit smaller. What can be done?

If you have had a cleft lip and palate the nose deformity is very, very complex especially if you have had previous surgery. You must see an expert cleft surgeon preferably, or an expert rhinoplasty surgeon. Do your home work!

A thorough examination inside the nose should be done. Ususally open rhinoplasty is selected. There are several techniques that can be used and your surgen will explain you.

Hello i was also born with bilateral Cleft lip and Palate and im having Septorhinoplasty in exactly 9 hours. I chose to stick with my Surgeon who is a specialist in Cleft Lip as well as rhinoplasty but i would most certainly recommend you choose someone with a history in dealing in Cleft Lip cases; my surgeon highlighted that due to my Cleft Lip the surgery would take up to 5 hours and be a lot more complicated. Im hoping for my nose to be smaller, more symmetrical, slimmer and loss of the droopy nose tip... so fingers crossed for tomorrow. If you want to chat about it or see pictures after recovery then give me an email at im-xray@hotmail.com. Sooo nervous right now, my Surgery is at 7 in the morning so i think im going to do an all nighter on this, there is no way i will be able to sleep.
