What is Rhinoplasty?

For some women who love beauty, when they look in the mirror every day, they will find that their facial features are not as beautiful as they imagined, so they think about what methods can be used to change their facial features. In fact, the plastic surgery industry is still very developed now, especially in foreign countries where ugly girls can be transformed into beauties through plastic surgery. For example, a nose reshaping procedure can make your nose look particularly beautiful. So, what is rhinoplasty?

Alar rhinoplasty is a cosmetic nose surgery that is mainly performed to address defects in the nasal wing area. Common nose defects mainly include thickened nose, drooping nose, collapsed nose, and retracted nose. Once nose defects occur, they will seriously affect the facial appearance.

Indications

1. Alar rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of the nose to make the nose proportions conform to the facial aesthetics;

2. Alar rhinoplasty can change the shape of the nose tip or nose dorsum and improve the appearance of the face;

3. Alar rhinoplasty can reduce and change the angle of the nostrils, nose and upper lip, etc., making the face more harmonious;

4. Rhinoplasty can also correct some congenital or traumatic deformities, allowing people to regain beauty and confidence.

Surgical Procedure

Although some more complex rhinoplasty procedures may take longer, it usually takes about 2 hours. During alar rhinoplasty, Dr. Gao Jing will lift the nose skin from the nasal bone and nasal cartilage, and then sculpt the nasal bone and nasal cartilage according to the patient's requirements, or directly implant a sculpted nasal stent to achieve the desired alar rhinoplasty effect, and finally suture the skin again.

Anesthesia method

Alarplasty can be performed under two methods: general anesthesia and local anesthesia, which mainly depends on the scope of the alarplasty. If general anesthesia is used, the patient will be in a deep sleep during the entire alar plastic surgery and will not feel any pain; if local anesthesia is chosen, the patient will remain awake during the surgery, but the nose and surrounding facial tissues will feel numb and there will be a little pain.

Clinical manifestations and surgical methods

1. For patients with wide nose wings and wide nostrils, partial resection of the nose wing base and nostril reduction surgery can be performed cautiously. The designed incision is located at the base of the nose and the lower part of the nose groove. Under local anesthesia, part of the full-thickness tissue of the nose base is appropriately removed, and then the nostril is pushed inward to narrow it, and layered interrupted sutures are performed. The length of the visible scar after surgery generally does not exceed 1CM.

2. For those with wide nasal wing margins, the free edge of the nasal wing can be partially removed, and the incision can be sutured to the inner surface of the nasal wing after trimming.

3. For those with small nostrils, thick nose wings, or too full upper part of the nose wing groove, a skin incision can be made along the front edge of the outer crus of the nose wing cartilage, and the skin and the nose wing cartilage underneath can be peeled off stealthily, the bloated soft tissue on the surface of the cartilage can be cut off, and then the upper and outer parts of the nose wing cartilage can be appropriately removed; then, a diamond-shaped piece of vestibule skin and nasal mucosa can be removed from the inner side of the base of the nose wing inside the nostril, and the excess fat tissue can be cut off. Finally, the incision on the edge of the nostril and the incision on the inner side of the base of the nose wing can be sutured. The length of the visible scar after surgery generally does not exceed 1CM.
