Can a nose change years later after an alarplasty?

Question

I am a newly turned 19 year old and I am planning on getting an alarplasty done. Years down the line will they change?

Yes, as we get older our connective tissue becomes loose and nose changes as well. As the tip drops with age the nostrils can look wide. However, they will never look really wide if you had Alarplasty at a younger age.

Alarplasty:
Alarplasty is a very fine and quick procedure that can narrow the nostrils and reduce the flare to soften the appearance. It has other names as well like ‘Weir Excisions’ or ‘Nostril Reduction’. However, it is important to note that asymmetry of nostrils is common and cannot be corrected with alarplasty. Visit the alarplasty website to learn all about it.

Will the results of an alarplasty change years down the road? Perhaps when you are 70 or 80 you will notice a change as the skin ages and the tip may droop a bit. But for the vast majority of your life there should be no discernible change.
