Hello, this is Cocoline.

How to reduce wide nostrils

The nose, which is the center of the face, is an important area that determines a person’s impression.

Just like a person’s personality, the shape of a nose also comes in many different forms.

Cocoline hump nose

A hump nose can be identified by the bridge of the nose, and a crooked nose can be identified by a bent nasal bridge, right? A bulbous nose refers to a nose with a thick, rounded tip.

Then what do you call a nose with flaring, wide nostrils?

??

The names given to different nose shapes are simply classifications made to make the form easier to recognize. It would be more accurate to say that there is no single fixed nose shape.

Nose shapes generally included in these categories

A nose with a raised bridge and a thick tip is not called a “hump-bulbous nose” or a “hump-bulbous nose.”

Bulbous nose, Cocoline

Depending on the two main features, it is called a hump nose or a bulbous nose.

A nose with flaring, wide nostrils is not separately classified and given its own name.

Depending on its shape, it is simply referred to as wide nostrils.

Wide nostrils

This area, called the nostril wing or alar, is the rim area of the nostrils.

When the nostrils look flared or wide, they can make a person’s impression seem somewhat unsophisticated.

If the width of the nostrils is wider than the space between the eyes, nostrils surgery can be considered

Correcting flared nostrils can give a slimmer and more refined impression.

At Cocoline Plastic Surgery, wide nostrils are corrected through methods that approach from inside the nostrils or from the outside.

During the surgery, incisions are made and then sutured. Cocoline can achieve effective nostril reduction without extending the nostril incision line to the outer side, while maintaining the shape of the nostrils. This can help reduce concerns about scarring.
