sorry for insisting but i'm a little anxious.
do you really think it's just a slightly short? when I see other babies' noses, I think my son's is so different.
I am not discrediting your assessment. Please do not misunderstand me. I would love if you could tell me a little more about your experience with similar cases.
Do you think it will have a good ratio between the columella and the other structures of the nose? I ask that, because I currently find his columella disproportionate. So I wonder if the nose structures grow at the same rate, so the columella will remain short.
I know that columella will not impair the functions of the nose. My question is about the shape of the nose itself.
I hope you understand my concerns.
Thanks for your patience.

Brief Answer:
There is no cause for concern
Detailed Answer:
Pardon me for the inadvertent delay in responding. Thanks for providing multiple images. The shortness of columella is nominal to none but it is not dispoportionate. So, there is nothing to worry about. The shape of nose varies from person to person and this is just an individual variation. Numerous other babies have such noses. The shape can also vary as growth occurs. No functional impairment is likely.
