Hi I went to see two surgeons . One of them said he could remove 3 mm of tissue from each nostril; another one said 5 mm can be removed from each. My concern is (since I have frequent sinus and have breathing issue all the time )my nostrils will be over trimmed and will face breathing issue after the procedure .

Answer: Both functional and cosmetic nasal concerns may be addressed at the same operation. Based on your frontal photo, you appear to have flaring nostrils. In that regard, Alarplasty the may be considered to decrease the flare. If you have recurrent sinusitis and difficulty breathing through your nose, This may be something that could benefit from a surgical procedure, depending on your examination. If neither surgeon was able to address your functional nasal issues, consider getting another opinion from another reputable rhinoplasty specialist. I hope this is helpful! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Alarplasty I’m assuming that 3 mm is the width of the price to be removed. That’s a pretty good size and I would stick with that. You can always go back and have it reduced further
