Additional information
A procedure designed to reduce the width of the nostrils and create a slimmer, more refined nose shape. The goal is to improve facial balance by narrowing wide or flared nostrils while preserving a natural appearance. It is often recommended for patients who feel the nostril area appears too broad when smiling or from the front view. The procedure is performed by carefully reducing and reshaping the alar base to create a more proportionate nasal contour.
