Question

By the way my nostrils are thin not so thick and whenever I squeeze my nose, I breathe good still

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

It is not possible to make a clinical recommendation based upon a single photo of the base of your nose. I can see that your nostrils appear to flare somewhat. To determine if alarplasty would be right for you, please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists. Thank you for your question! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

It would be helpful to have several photos of your nose and face together to make sure you're a candidate for the procedure. Based on this one very limited photograph, your nostrils do appear excessively wide. An Alarplasty. accomplishes narrowing the base of the nostrils by removing a wedge of skin, and this procedure can be performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure which usually takes about 30 minutes.
