What is Alar Reduction Surgery?

Alar reduction surgery is a procedure designed to narrow the nostrils and reduce the width of the nasal base. This technique is ideal for individuals with wide or flared nostrils that can detract from the overall appearance of the nose and face. By carefully removing a small amount of tissue from the sides of the nostrils, our surgeons can reshape the nose for a more refined and proportionate look.

At VVLY Plastic Surgery, our surgeons tailor each alar reduction surgery to the patient’s unique facial features, ensuring that the results enhance the natural beauty of the face without compromising its overall harmony.

The Alar Reduction Surgery Procedure at VVLY Plastic Surgery

At VVLY Plastic Surgery, the alar reduction surgery is performed with precision and care. Here’s a breakdown of the process:

1. Consultation: During your consultation, our surgeons will assess your nose and discuss your aesthetic goals. We will take detailed measurements and determine the most appropriate surgical approach for your unique anatomy.
2. Procedure: Alar reduction surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the procedure. The surgery usually lasts between 30 minutes to 1 hour.
3. Incisions and Tissue Removal: The incisions are made on the inside of the nostrils, so there will be no visible external scarring. The surgeon carefully removes a small amount of tissue from the sides of the nostrils to narrow the nasal base.
4. Stitching and Recovery: After reshaping the nostrils, the incisions are closed with dissolvable stitches. Most patients can return home the same day.

Recovery After Alar Reduction Surgery

• Swelling and Bruising: Some swelling and bruising around the nostrils and under the eyes are common, but they will gradually subside within a few days to weeks.
• Follow-Up Appointments: After your surgery, we will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and ensure your nose is healing as expected.
• Return to Normal Activities: Most patients can return to work or light activities within a week, although strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks to ensure proper healing.
