Do I Need Alar Base Reduction?

Surgeons evaluate the width of the nostrils by drawing an imaginary line down from the inner corners of the eyes. If the nostrils overlap this line, then we consider reduction of the alar width. Although you blacked out your eyes on the frontal view, it does appear that your nostrils are of normal width. Another view that would be helpful is a view of your nose from the base (with the tip of your nose pointed up towards the ceiling). This view allows us to evaluate nostril symmetry. The photos you sent do show a bulbous tip and a dorsal hump, which would certainly improve with hump reduction and tip refinement.

No - based on your photos it appears that you do not have excessive flare of the nostrils nor should you develop this through significant deprojection

ducktales-

 

In general, if your nasal base is too wide, it will be out of proportion to your face.  In your photo you supplied, it does not look like your nose is wide in proportion to your face.  Of course, it's best if you're seen in person by a plastic surgeon, but your photos don't really indicate a nose that's wide in comparison to the rest of your nose or face.
