I am a little over two weeks out from nasal valve repair and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. My nasal valves were crushed during a fall in 2009 and Dr. Alford had to remove ear cartilage from my right ear to completely repair them. I followed his recovery plan and had almost no pain, only minor bruising and very little swelling. And I love the look of my new nose! My only regret is that I didn’t see him sooner. I highly recommend Dr. Alford! He is amazing!
