What can be done to correct alar retraction? (photos)

Asked By:missmartinelle in Los Angeles, California

Hello! I’m quite sad about the alar retraction on my left nostril. I was told it could be fixed 1 year post op with ear cartilage, but I hate waiting that long. I am not having this issue on the right side. How would you fix it? Could it be fixed with a closed revision?
