Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

7 months post op
I can tell the different . However I think the alar plasty alone doesn’t give me the result that I want . I am considering getting a tip plasty .
The nostril is slightly uneven . But I am ok with that .

Alarplasty
I have a width fat nose which I hate it so much.
Getting an alarplasty was my first plastic surgery .
Pro:
1.Fast recovery - I didn’t take any pain killer and the I felt fine . My nose was slightly swollen for the first few days . No bandage and split . Very little dry blood.
2. biodegradable stitches . The stitches started to drop after a week. My surgeon told me to rub the incision slightly while I was washing my face otherwise it will take forever for the stitches to drop.
3. Fast surgery
4. You will be able to go to work after few days . To be honest I even started skipping after 2 days !! (Of course I was suppose to rest for a week).
Cons :
1. The difference is very minor . But I am ok with it.
2. “Tight” feeling around the incision for more than a month. After 3 months , I felt normal again.
3. There is “mark” on the induction area after healing ( not visible unless you bite your lips and look very closely ; to be honest no body will look at you your nose like that).
4. Uneven nostrils (see pictures) (only noticeable when u look at your nose from the bottom; again nobody is going to look t your nose like that)
