Should I Fix my Nose? (photo)

Backround: Born a premature baby, tubes in nose when young, had nosebleeds often as a kid, surgery to remove some bump in my nose that caused it around 10-14 years old. What I really dislike is that one nostrol is too large overall, the right one. It bulges out more and has a larger nostrol. Only super noticable when I tilt my head up. Should I fix it? Will I be able to afford it? Will it scar? Is there any good places in Atlanta, Columbus, Auburn? GA and Alabama basically.
