What Is Alarplasty?

Alarplasty (also called nostril reduction surgery) is a specialized cosmetic procedure that:

  • Reduces the width of the nostrils
  • Refines the shape of the nasal base
  • Corrects asymmetry between nostrils
  • Improves overall nasal appearance
  • Enhances facial harmony and balance

Why Consider Alarplasty?

The nostrils are a central feature of the nose and face. When they are wide, flared, or asymmetrical, they can:

  • Make the nose appear wider than it actually is
  • Draw attention away from other facial features
  • Affect how you feel about your profile
  • Cause self-consciousness in photos and social situations
  • Alarplasty addresses these concerns with a quick, permanent solution.

The Science of Nasal Harmony:

Facial proportions follow certain aesthetic principles. The ideal nostril width should be roughly equal to the distance between the eyes. When nostrils extend beyond this, they can create an imbalance.

Alarplasty works by:

  • Removing a small wedge of tissue from the nostril base
  • Carefully suturing to create a narrower, more refined shape
  • Preserving natural function and breathing
  • Creating permanent, lasting results

Alarplasty benefits: 

  • Narrower, more refined nostrils
  • Improved facial balance and harmony
  • Enhanced profile appearance
  • Natural-looking results – people will notice you look better, not that you had surgery
  • Permanent improvement – results last a lifetime
  • Increased confidence – feel better about your appearance

Who Is the Ideal Candidate?

Perfect for You If You:

  •  Are bothered by the width or shape of your nostrils
  •  Have nostrils that flare when you smile
  •  Notice asymmetry between your nostrils
  •  Want a more refined nasal appearance
  •  Are 18 years or older
  • Do not smoke (or are willing to quit temporarily)

Not Ideal Candidates:

  •  Have active infections in the treatment area
  • Have unrealistic expectations about results

The Alarplasty Procedure: Step by Step

Initial Consultation:

Your journey begins with a comprehensive, confidential consultation with Dr. Jamal Al Deeb:

  • Complete facial analysis – evaluation of your nasal proportions
  • Discussion of goals – what you hope to achieve
  • Physical examination – assessment of nostril width, shape, and symmetry
  • Digital imaging – preview of potential results
  • Realistic expectations – what alarplasty can and cannot do
  • Treatment planning – personalized surgical approach
  • Cost breakdown – transparent pricing explained
  • Questions answered – all your concerns addressed

Pre-Treatment Instructions:

  • Avoid blood-thinning supplements – as advised by doctor (7-10 days before)
  • No smoking – stop at least 2 weeks before and after surgery
  • Stay hydrated – drink plenty of water
  • Eat a balanced diet – support healing
  • Arrive with clean skin – no makeup or products
  • Arrange for driver – someone to take you home

The Procedure: Step by Step

Step 1 – Anesthesia Administration

  • Local anesthesia is applied to numb the nostril area
  • Mild sedation ensures you are relaxed and comfortable
  • You’ll feel no pain during the procedure

Step 2 – Marking

  • Dr. Jamal Al Deeb carefully marks the areas to be reduced
  • Precision markings ensure symmetrical, natural results
  • The amount of tissue to be removed is calculated

Step 3 – Incision

  • Tiny incisions are made at the base of the nostrils
  • Incisions are placed in the natural crease where nostril meets cheek
  • This ensures scars are well-hidden

Step 4 – Tissue Removal

  • A small wedge of tissue is precisely removed
  • The amount removed is tailored to your goals
  • Symmetry is checked continuously

Step 5 – Suturing

  • The area is carefully sutured with fine, dissolvable stitches
  • No suture removal needed – they dissolve on their own
  • The result is immediate narrowing of the nostrils

Aftercare Instructions:

Follow these guidelines for optimal healing:

First 24-48 Hours:

Apply cold compresses – to reduce swelling

Keep head elevated – even when sleeping

No strenuous activity – rest is important

No blowing your nose – avoid for at least 1 week

Take prescribed medications – as directed

Days 3-7:

Gentle cleansing – keep area clean

Avoid sun exposure – protect healing skin

No makeup on incisions – until fully healed
