Nasal Wing Reduction: Is it Possible?

June 1, 2011
Asked By:8428anon in Los Angeles, CA

I wanted to know if it's possible to reduce the prominence of nasal wings/ala? (Please see pic for the specific nose part) I'm not talking about reducing their width with an alar base reduction but rather diminishing their "vertical height" when you consider them from a profile view. Basically, my ala are sort of big/fleshy/vertically tall and I was curious if their height or prominence could be altered so they're as noticeable when you look at me from the side. Thank you.
