Deformed Nose Causing Low Self Confidence, Cartilage Seems To Have Fallen. Treatment Options?S

This is very hard for me to explain. I used to have a perfect nose until I was about 14. I've always suffered from many allergies, so I was always blowing my nose, well... now it's deformed. I absolutely hate it, my confidence has gone down completely and I see it getting worse (I'm 19 now). This is not a problem of the bone, but of the cartilage, it seems to have fallen down (especially on my right), and created a very strage bump (underneath of where it fell). I just hate it and want to know the solutions, you will probably say surgery, but I'm scared theres no way to fix this specific problem since it's so rare (I've never seen it before).
