Images according to the width of the nostril
If your alars are wide, your nose and nostrils will look bigger, and you may look dull and unsophisticated, lacking three-dimensionality and sophistication.
By reducing the width of the nose through reduction surgery, you can create a sleek and sophisticated image, creating a slim nose that matches the proportions and balance of your face.
Images according to the thickness of the nostril
It usually appears along with wide nostrils and a boxy nose. The wide alars are highlighted, and the nostrils are relatively small, making them look stuffy and giving the impression of a fat nose.
Reducing the thickness of alars through alar reduction surgery creates a synergistic effect with bulbous nose correction, creating a sleek and sophisticated image. The nostrils can also be relatively enlarged, reducing the stuffy impression.
Images of drooping nose bridge
In cases where the nostril is saggy, it usually appears along with wide nostrils and a protuberant nose, giving the overall impression of sagging, and when viewed from the side, the columella and nostrils are obscured, making the patient look stuffy and dull.
By raising the nasal wings, the nostrils and columella are exposed when viewed from the side, creating an ideal profile and reducing the stuffy impression.

Alar Reduction
Method
CASE 01
Alar Reduction
External Incision Alar Reduction
A scar may remain due to the incision made on the outside of the nostril, but this surgery is effective in reducing the alars.
Medial Incision Alar Reduction
Diamond-shaped incision is made under the nostrils and narrowed to reduce the size of the alars.
Non-Incision Alar Reduction
Short incision is made inside the nose, the two nostrils are brought together in the center, and the nostrils are narrowed and the tip of the nose is raised by tying them with insoluble thread.
Narrowing the Floor of the Nostrils
If the bottom of the nostrils is wide and the nostrils are extremely wide, additional surgery is required to excise and gather the skin at the bottom of the nostrils.
CASE 02
Alar Thickness Reduction
The skin on the thick part of the nostril is excised to reduce its thickness.
CASE 03
Raising the Wings of your Nose
The sagging part of the skin on the wing of the nose is lifted by excising the skin inside the nostril.
Incision vs. Non-Incision
 |
VS |  |
|---|---|---|
| Incision | Non-Incision | |
| The size of the nostrils can be clearly improved by making an incision below the nostril, but scars may remain, so it is recommended that the surgery be performed by an experienced medical staff. This surgery is recommended for bulbous nose, puffy nose, and uneven nostrils. | definition | A small incision is made inside the nostril, which reduces the burden of scarring, but it is difficult to improve if the nostril itself is large or spread out. This surgery is recommended when the columella is wide and the nose appears big. |
