Can alarplasty look natural on an "ethnic" nose? (photo)

Seeing a base photo of your nose would help with assessing your concerns, but I can say that alar base reduction using a wedge excision technique typically works very well in reducing excess nostril flare.
The incision line is hidden in the natural skin crease where the nostril meets the cheek.
You can read more about this type of surgery at my web reference link below.

Alarplasty or nostril reduction is very common in ethnic rhinoplasty. The surgeon must discern if the problem is flare or width of the nostril sill. Flare can be corrected with a wedge excision leaving the natural shape of the nostril opening, and often improving the overall width of the base. Consult with an experienced rhinoplasty specialist. Good Luck!

Thank you for your photos though we really need more views to give an intelligent answer. That said an alaplasy alone in the context of the photos that you have supplied might not give you the result you want without further refinements to the nose

An alarplasty can narrow the base of the nose and decrease nostril flare. Please submit a picture of the base of your nose so I can show you where the incisions would be made to achieve a natural result.
