What procedure would be best for nasal valve collapse?

zz_aa
I have a nasal collapse and deviated septum which means I cant breath on both sides. The first surgeon I saw wants to undertake a rhinoplasty with rib cartilage. I decided to get a second opinion as I was this meant I will have a bigger nose. The second surgeon has recommended a septorhrinoplasty use the cartilage from the septum. Its difficult to know what to do where you have two surgeons suggesting such different approaches (and cost). How do you go about making the decision?
