The nose is the organ located in the middle of our face and is considered the most important component of facial beauty. It is one of the first organs that catches the eye in personal communication and at the first encounter. In fact, we do not want our nose to be the organ that attracts attention at first glance. In personal communication, the eyes, not the nose, should come to the fore at first glance. Our century's understanding of beauty requires this. This conclusion was reached as a result of surveys conducted with thousands of people.
The nose has a certain proportion on the face (the golden ratio) and a straight axis (drawn from the root of the nose between the two eyebrows to the tip of the nose). It does not stand out as abnormal if it has an imaginary line), is of average elevation, has no arch or is slightly curved (in women), has no protrusion on the right or left, and is of a size compatible with the face. However, if the tip of the nose is droopy or the nostrils are so upturned that they look excessive, if the nasal axis is tilted left and right, if it descends crookedly from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose, if there is a depression in the middle of the nose, etc. etc. At first encounter, the nose, not the eyes, attracts attention, which is an aesthetically unpleasant situation.
The crooked nose should be evaluated according to the surgically corrected nasal axis. Accordingly, the nose may be straight, crooked to the left in the form of (), crooked to the right in the form of ), or crooked to both sides in the shape of an S. This may be due to structural disorders caused by both cartilage and bone, caused by the cartilage in the middle section of the nose and the curvature of the bones forming the roof of the nose. Crooked nose may be due to genetics or due to trauma. There are two types of trauma here: heavy traumas that cause sudden changes such as an accident or a blow, or microtraumas throughout life, from infancy to adolescence, which can cause small bleedings in the bones and cartilage of the nose that cannot be noticed on x-rays or tomography, and the curved development of the nose.
The crooked nose has a special place in nose plastic surgery. Here, the surgeon must be able to make the diagnosis well, plan the necessary interventions well and do what is necessary. Otherwise, the nose may not straighten completely or may become crooked again. Nasal embryology and physiology can only be known by a well-trained ear, nose and throat physician. The nose should remain as it is physiologically and genetically developed. He resists this during the surgery and wants to return to his old self after the surgery. One of the tricks here is that even if the nose becomes straight during the surgery, if the memory of the nose cannot be reset, the nose will sooner or later take the shape it wants again. This is only possible with fully made bone incisions and fully shaped cartilages.
