It's not just the uneven eyes that stress people out. It seems that more and more people are insecure about their uneven nostrils these days.
So today, we will discuss how to address such issues and further explore what an ideal nostril looks like.
What is Nostril Surgery?
The nostrils, being the focal point of the face, can become a source of complex if they are flared, droopy, asymmetric, or excessively large.
In such cases, it’s advisable to undergo surgery to correct the nostrils to their proper position. GNG Nostril Surgery tailors the procedure based on factors like facial balance, skin elasticity, and the size and strength of cartilage to achieve an ideal nose shape. Can Nostril Surgery Be Done Alone? If the nose height and tip shape are appropriate but the nostrils appear wide or excessively large, it is possible to resolve the issue with just nostril reduction surgery. However, in most cases, because the nostrils are accompanied by a lower nose, it is common to perform procedures on the nostrils, nose tip, and bridge at the same time.

Why Choose GNG Nostril Surgery?
Point 1 High-end surgery experience by skilled specialists, providing satisfactory results Asymmetrical nostrils or those with unattractive proportions can be caused by various factors, including the size of wing cartilage, skin elasticity, cartilage strength, and post-surgical complications (like contracture). Given the variety of causes, standard surgical procedures may not yield the desired effects. GNG Hospital is capable of carrying out all surgeries tailored to each cause.

Point 2 Beautiful from any angle-frontal, side, or beneath When viewed from the side, the ideal nostril shape is an oval approximately 2mm wide, while from below, it should resemble an isosceles triangle for symmetry. After a precise diagnosis and planning, the surgery is conducted to find the most aesthetically pleasing proportions that harmonize with the individual’s features, ensuring a nose that stands out beautifully from any angle. Point 3 Scar prevention Most nostril surgeries are performed through incisions made inside the nose, making scars nearly invisible to the naked eye. If an external incision is required, careful suturing is essential to avoid leaving visible scars. Scars form when the tissue at the incision site does not heal properly and merges irregularly. GNG employs meticulous and careful suturing techniques to prevent severe scarring
