Is alar base reduction and alarplasty the same or different? How to fix nostril height and width to match other (photos)

March 15, 2022
Asked By:DRayRay in Miami, Florida

Post op one of my nostrils is wider and taller than the other. Would one of the listed procedures fix this for me? I am worried I would be able to fix the wider issue but not the taller issue. Since most B&A pics of alarplasty seem to make nostrils less wide but still the same height. Basically, how do I fix width and height of it? Last, how do I know if I already have or need an alar rim graft on the smaller one?
