What are my options for lowering nostrils? I am unhappy with them. A non surgical option would be ideal, but open to all.

Asked By:AnnaJane456 in Florida, FL

I had sinus surgery in 2013 where my doctor cleared out my diseased sinuses but also fixed my septum which was worse than an S. My health has never been better but I'm wondering if the surgery might have turned my nostrils up and higher. What are my options to fix this? What does the recovery look like? Can I go under local or do I have to do general? A non surgical solution would be my first choice (not willing to do silikon1000 after researching). Thank you!
