  • Title: Alar Base Reduction and Alar-Columellar Relationship.
    Author: Choi JY.
    Journal: Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am; 2018 Aug; 26(3):367-375. PubMed ID: 30005792.
    Abstract:
    Nasal base modification can improve nostril shape and orientation, reduce alar flaring, improve nasal base width, correct nasal hooding, improve symmetry, and create overall facial harmony. For the correction of alar rim deformities, careful examination, consultation, and analysis and consideration of the condition of the skin are essential. Understanding the ala and surrounding tissue, supporting the lower lateral cartilage, and selecting the proper technique produce functionally and aesthetically good results.
