Hi, is there a limit on how many millimeters can your nostrils be narrowed with alarplasty?
Answer: Alarplasty A few millimeters is all that is possible, 2-3, on each side. Any more and you can distort the alar rim and cause asymmetries that are then impossible to correct.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Alar cinch for nostril narrowing this technique is especially useful in non-Caucasian noses. In many non-Caucasian noses, the nostrils are too wide. Simply cutting out a wedge causes the nose to look pinched and unnatural. however, the alar cinch technique results in a much better looking nostril and can achieve narrowing of 2 to 3 mm on either side.

Answer: How Narrow Can the Nostrils be after Alarplasty Hi and thanks for your question. There is not a single measurement for the width of the nostrils that applies to all noses. A good guideline to determine where the nostril should be is to drop a vertical line down from the inner corner of the eyes and the nostrils should be inside this line. You have to keep in mind that this guideline is for a Caucasian nose. This is not the same for other racial groups that have wider, flatter noses. In general, however, you can narrow the nostrils if they are too wide, but not so much that air flow is impeded. I would be happy to show you with computer imaging how the nostrils can be changed.Good luck.
