the scar from alar reduction does improve over time, but no scar ever completely goes away. It can be improved by laser and covered with makeup.
Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.

You want to wait for six months in most cases so you are dealing with a stable situation. steroid injections can be done at the six week mark if they are starting to look thickened.

As others have said, it is likely that you will require some type of procedure on the nasal bones to bring them in. This is all about keeping proportions. You need to think about the nose as one unit and not break it down too much. I would even say your current nasal ala match your nasal br...
It appears from your photos that you would benefit much more and likely be happier with the result of changes in not only your alar base and tip, but your profile and your bridge. Your bridge can be improved without a radical change and be left looking natural and unoperated upon. Meet with an ...
