should i get alar-plasty in conjunction with tip-plasty or just alar-plasty by itself? one of the pictures from above show my natural nose and the other is how i image it will look from the front with just alar-plasty done.
Answer: Should I get alar base reduction by itself or with tip-plasty? Hello and thank you for the question and sharing your photos. I believe you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. You do have a bulbous tip and alar flaring and will benefit from both tip-plasty and alar base reduction. My best advice is that you discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in performing rhinoplasty. I would ask to see before and after pictures of their real patients. It's important that you trust your surgeon's skills and ability to achieve the results you are looking for. In particular, pay attention to your surgeon's experience with rhinoplasty. Best, Pejman Aflaki, M.D. Johns Hopkins-trained double board-certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Nasal tip proportions and aesthetics To decide regarding to decide regarding the best course of action for you, it is important to appreciate that we see things in comparative fashion. If the alar base is narrowed and the tip doesn't change, the tip with actually look slightly larger. Conversely, if the tip is narrowed and the alar base remains the same, the nostrils will look slightly more flared. You can evaluate in a computer simulation the impact of isolated or combined changes, and this will help you to decide what is the aesthetic balance that you are most comfortable with.

Answer: Alar base reduction Thank you for your question! Based on your frontal picture, it seems like you would benefit from some tip work. It really depends on your goals and what needs to be done in order to achieve balance with the rest of your features. If these things bother you, the best specific recommendations come from an in-person exam with a standardized set of photographs. It may be in your interest to schedule some consults with Facial Plastic Surgeon to get additional perspectives and discuss options in greater detail. Best of luck!

Answer: #alarreduction and #rhinoplasty with #PlasticSurgery Looking at your photos, the look that you wish to achieve can be accomplished by doing an alar reduction procedure. If you are happy with the tip, then this can be left alone. The procedure you need depends on what concerns you about your nose. If you wish to have the tip reduced and more refined then you will need a rhinoplasty to achive this. For optimal outcome, please consult a fully qualified plastic surgeon, who has specialist qualification in plastic surgery 'FRCS Plast' after having being trained adequately in the field of plastic surgery, is registered on the 'Specialist register for Plastic surgery' with the General Medical Council and has been considered competent enough to be a member of the 'BAPRAS' (British Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons) and 'BAAPS' (British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons) at the least.
