Asked By:Fitmom421 in New York, New York

Hi!! I am not sure if I have the right terms but I believe the are I am referring to is called the Alar Cartilage. One side on my nose has a lot more then the other make me look totally different from one side and crooked from the front. I am aware I have a very slight deviated septum as well. As you see looking at the picture the right side/nostril is larger. How complicated is it to get this reconstructed? How is recover? and is the an expensive procedure
