I had an accident 15 days ago and got 22 stitches on the left side of my face. The marks look really bad will plastic surgery help me get my normal skin back? Are there any other options to reduce the scarring?

Yes, plastic surgery (specifically scar revision) can help improve the appearance of scars, but it's crucial to consult with a plastic surgeon to determine the best course of treatment. Other options include laser therapy, topical treatments, and steroid injections, depending on the type and severity of the scarring.

I have a weird issue where there's a lot of fat only in my left chest but my right chest is totally normal. My BMI is fine, I even have visible abs, so it's not a general fat problem. I've tried medicines to dissolve the fat but nothing worked. Could this be a hormonal imbalance? I'm desperate to fix this, even if it means surgery what options do I have?

FNAC of that fat deposit should be done to rule out any malignant disease. If it's only Lipoma, than it can be surgically removed by a small operation. That's it

I'm a model but my nose is long and curved, which affects my confidence. I'm considering nose surgery how can it be fixed to look more balanced? What options do I have?

For a long, curved nose affecting your confidence as a model, rhinoplasty (nose surgery) is a common solution to reshape the nose and improve its overall balance. There are surgical and non-surgical options to consider, with rhinoplasty being the more permanent solution for significant changes, and non-surgical methods like dermal fillers offering temporary adjustments.
