1st & Subsequent Consultations

Rhinoplasty is considered by many surgeons to be one of the most complex and unforgiving of all cosmetic surgeries. Complications can be notoriously daunting to manage. You probably can recall examples of celebrities, who, even with their stature and resources, cannot "undo" a bad nose job. A true Rhinoplasty specialist has full command of, understanding and control over skin, cartilage, bones and nasal function to know what the limits are for each patient. Only then can they tailor the safest approach for each individual for the best outcome. This can only be achieved through years of focused training and experience in nasal function and nasal aesthetics. At The Rhinoplasty Clinic, we seek to understand your requirements, and advise what is safe and achievable. We believe rhinoplasty does not need to be a scary and painful journey. Outcomes should be predictable, reproducible and ultimately, safe and functional. Each of our staff, from receptionists to the medical team understands the special needs and problems of the Rhinoplasty patient. This is to ensure your Rhinoplasty journey is well-informed, safe and as comfortable as possible. At The Rhinoplasty Clinic, we are committed to doing our Rhinoplasties well. Our mission is your satisfaction and peace of mind.

The nasal ala composed of soft tissue at the nostril rim and cartilage at the upper nostril. An alar base joins the upper area with the cheek. The shape, width, and overall size of this area are primarily the cosmetic concern of nose plastic surgeons. One of the common concerns of the patients seeking Alarplasty is their wide/flaring nose. In order to bring greater harmony to their face, many patients opt for nostril narrowing or alar base reduction option. Due to complexity and variability involved int he alar base structure, there are unique challenges associated with the alar base surgery. In the course of a surgical evaluation, the top rhinoplasty surgeons evaluate alar base in terms of symmetry, size, and shape. Other factors may include the thickness of the nose skin, amount of alar base modification required, and its exact shape and location.
