UNDERSTANDING ALAR BASE MODIFICATION

Alar base modification, commonly known as nostril reduction surgery,
is a precise surgical technique designed to improve the width and
proportion of the nasal base. The procedure aims to create better
facial harmony by addressing nostril width and flaring while
maintaining a natural appearance.

SURGICAL GUIDELINES AND AESTHETIC PRINCIPLES

The fundamental principle of alar base modification involves
establishing proportional nostril width. Ideally, the base of the nose
should approximate the distance between the inner corners of the eyes.
When this relationship is disproportionate, surgical intervention can
help restore balanced facial features.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Two primary techniques are employed in alar base modification:

 	* WEIR INCISION (WEDGE EXCISION):
 	* SILL INCISION:

INDICATIONS FOR ALAR BASE MODIFICATION

Patients may be candidates for this procedure due to various factors:

 	* Ethnic facial characteristics
	* Previous nasal trauma
	* Nostril asymmetry
	* Post-rhinoplasty refinement
	* Congenital nasal structural variations

TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Factors influencing alar base modification include nostril asymmetry
caused by structural elements such as columella positioning, septal
deviation, or underlying anatomical characteristics. The goal is
always to achieve a balanced, natural-looking result that complements
the patient's unique facial structure.
