Too Much Alar Trim? Help Me Decide? (photo)

November 16, 2012
Asked By:lindaye

I got a 2nd alar trim from a reputable plastic surgeon. i ask him if im a candidate for alar trim and he told me that he will correct it but i think my nose is too small than what i'm expecting from what he said that he will trim it just a little. I cried and He said that it's easy to correct it by using my ear cartillage and skin grafting as well. Today is my second month, Should I undergo in revisioning it again for the 3rd time so i can put back my nose or shuld i just leave my nose alone?
