Alar Reduction Surgery

Alar reduction surgery is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the nostrils to make them smaller or narrower. It's often done to improve the balance and proportion of the nose with the rest of the face. A small amount of tissue is carefully removed from the base of the nostrils to achieve the desired look.
