Too large nostrils can generally be divided into two types: one is simply too large nostrils, the other is those where the nostrils are too large and face the nose upwards. Having too large nostrils will not only affect a person's appearance, but also be detrimental to the health of the body. Nostrils will cause many problems with the nose. Those who seek beauty should undergo surgical correction as soon as possible.
1. Nostril contraction surgery. Flattened nostrils require alar cartilage correction, alar ptosis requires alar edge correction, removal of excess alar cartilage and nasal skin and mucous membrane, and nasal alar retraction requires cartilage filling, etc. For patients with hump nose deformity and an oversized nose tip, middle cartilage plastic surgery is sometimes required. If the deformity is congenital or acquired, skin transfer or bone grafting surgery should be considered based on the specific circumstances.

2. Alar resection. Mainly suitable for Asians or black people, it is a method to reduce the size of the nose when the base of the nose is too wide or the nostrils are too large. When the nose is wide, it is mostly due to excess skin on the nose. Alar reduction surgery should remove the skin under the nose and then suture the incision to narrow the nose, which can make the nostrils appear longer. Thereby achieving the purpose of making the nostrils smaller. The incision is left on the line between the nose and cheek, and the scar is not obvious.

3. The surgical method for upturned nose is mainly to extend the length of the nasal septum cartilage. During the operation, an open incision is used to separate the nasal septum cartilage and nose alar cartilage. At the same time, the cartilage below the nasal septum or the ear cartilage is removed as material to extend the nasal septum cartilage. After some auxiliary surgeries, such as rhinoplasty and nasal tip cartilage transplantation, the length of the nose can also be increased and the level of the upturned nose can be reduced.
