October 16, 2009
Asked By:amatorybabe in Chicago, IL

Hello! I need some help. I really want to get Rhinoplasty done because my nose is extremely long and wide and just messed up. I have a question is it possible to straighten my nose without touching the bone, and there are two huge chunks of cartilage on my nose that make it wide.So, I would like to have a procedure to take care of all of those problems. Also wondering how much will it cost approximately? Thanks!
