Alarplasty Reshape of the Nostrils in Bangkok, Thailand<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Alarplasty is a surgical procedure to reshape and reduce the size of nostrils. A small, wedge-shaped piece of skin is removed to create smaller, narrower nostrils. Alarplasty is a popular procedure combined with rhinoplasty to refine and beautify the nose shape.<\/p>

Rhinoplasty is a general term for any operation designed to change the nose shape and size, such as hump removal, correcting bulbous or droopy nasal tips, or other rhinoplasty surgeries to restore functionality, such as deviated septum; Alarplasty refers solely to the surgery to narrow the nostrils when the nostrils are too wide. Alarplasty involves removing skin from the nostrils and suturing the nostril closed, thereby narrowing the nostrils. The incisions are made inside the nose and are contained to only the nose.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Kamol Cosmetic Hospital offers various techniques for alarplasty are as follows:<\/p>

    1. To reduce an alar flare by alar wedge resection technique is performed by a wedge excision 1-2 mm above the alar facial- groove and then suture, this technique is suited for someone who has a wide alar flare, as picture 1<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Alarplasty is a simple and quick procedure that can transform the face. The nose takes center stage in the face and greatly affects overall beauty and looks. Flared and large nostrils are easily fixed with this surgery, and it often complements a rhinoplasty for a significantly better nose.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
