Wide nostrils contribute to the appearance of an oversized nose that doesn’t fit the face, especially for patients of ethnic descent. A wide tip can be related to a wide nasal base or due to a broad, bulbous tip. Several nostrils reduction techniques are available to slim wide, flared, or thick nostrils using reduction rhinoplasty techniques in NYC & NJ.
Stop complaining and drawing attention to your wide nostrils—schedule your consultation with Dr. Monica Tadros, a top-rated double board-certified plastic surgeon and the expert nostrils reduction specialist in New York and New Jersey.
Difference Between Nostrils Reduction and Rhinoplasty
Alarplasty, also known as a wide nostril nose job, is able to change the width of the nostrils, while a rhinoplasty can modify the appearance of the entire nose. Rhinoplasty surgery is performed with the use of general anesthesia, while an alarplasty can be done with local anesthesia. Rhinoplasty surgery involves trimming away cartilage, shaving down bone, or removing unnecessary tissue. During the alarplasty surgery, our best surgeon in NYC & NJ only makes incisions to the alar region of the nose and does not touch cartilage or bone.
Preparation Before Wide Nose Surgery
Dr. Monica Tadros makes the treatment personalized to every patient. In order to get a full understanding of the patient’s expectations and evaluate both the inside and outside of the nose, a minimum of half an hour is needed. It is highly important to know what to expect in order to make the entire process more pleasant and satisfying and also achieve desirable effects. NJ nostril reduction surgeon Dr. Tadros normally discusses the functional and cosmetic expectations in a detailed way for the purpose of making sure that all the patient’s questions are answered. Apart from that, your insurance might cover some of the expenses depending on your personal insurance plan.
Nostrils Reduction Procedure
An alarplasty is a surgical intervention aimed at reshaping the nostrils. People with wide or prominent noses often benefit from this type of surgery, which reduces the shape and size of the nostrils. This surgery involves the removal of a wedge of the wing of the nose to modify the nostrils’ size. During this surgery, a specialist administers local anesthesia and performs incisions on the inside or outside of the nose in the alar area. The next step is removing a certain amount of tissue. Once removed, the incision is sutured, which narrows the span of the wide nostrils. This process does not involve touching cartilage and bone, making the recovery process easier.
