Asked By:SarahSaxton in London, e1

I am thinking of having a secondary rhinoplasty to reduce my nasal width and was wondering what the risks of scarring were, the risks of uneven nostrils, and how long it is until i can have a natural smile again and its not obvious i have had surgery (ie can return unnoticed to work again). Thanks
