Alar lowering,

Reconstruction with nasolabial angle surgery!

After nose surgery, if inflammation occurs and the nose becomes shortened, in cases of contracted nose,

the nasal tip becomes shorter,

and the nose shrinks while showing signs of an inflammatory reaction.

The skin at the tip of the nose may also lift and become firm.

Because both nostrils and the nose shrink asymmetrically,

it can also make breathing difficult.

In such cases, revision nose surgery is necessary,

and a shortened nose may make the nostrils appear abnormally visible.

The surgical method performed at this time is alar lowering.

This is a distinctive surgical method developed by Director Lee Kyoo-ho.

In the case of a nose that needs revision surgery and shows visible nostrils, a nose that looks upturned from the front is commonly called an upturned nose.

If the cause of the upturned nose is a lack of length or tissue at the nasal tip,

it is treated with tip lengthening surgery, which can extend the length of the nasal tip.

If the height of the nasal tip is sufficient and only the alar part

is lifted upward, the procedure is performed as alar lowering surgery.

'Columella lifting' is a procedure that appropriately lifts the central part of the nostril area that has drooped downward.

'Alar lowering' surgery, called bidan nose surgery, is a procedure that reduces the exposure of the alar base, that is, the nostrils.

Since some people decide on revision surgery because of sagging at the nasal tip,

it is best to consult accurately with a nose specialist about the cause of nostril exposure before deciding on proper alar correction.
