With the development of plastic surgery technology, people are increasingly haggling over the pursuit of beauty. Oriental people have different facial features from westerners, so rhinoplasty has always been one of the hot items in plastic surgery. Nowadays, rhinoplasty is not just about the height of the bridge of the nose. Some patients have their own requirements on the shape of the nose, the width of the alar and the warpage of the nose, and a perfect "seagull line" is necessary.

Do you know what the "seagull line" of the nose is?

The so-called "seagull line" refers to the relationship between the nose and the alar when looking at the nose from the front, that is, the line connecting the nose with the upper edges of the nostrils on both sides. The ideal position of the nose will be slightly lower than the wing of the nose, and the line will spread its wings like a seagull, hence the name "seagull line".

Angelababy, the actress, has always been a model of cosmetic surgery for many women. Her nose is slightly lower than the sides of her nose, so she has perfect seagull lines. Others, such as Fan Bingbing's nose, have a similar situation, so common patients directly take pictures of two actresses and ask doctors to make similar noses.

There are three main ways to shape the alar:

1. If the nostril is not big, the alar is too thick or the upper part of alar groove is too full, a nostril-edge skin incision can be made along the front edge of the lateral horn of alar cartilage.

2. If the alar margin is wide, part of the alar can be removed, and the incision can be stitched to the inner surface of the alar after trimming.

3. If the alar is wide and the nostril is wide, partial resection of the alar base and nostril reduction can be performed. The incision is located at the base of the alar and the lower part of the alar groove, narrowing the nostril, and then stitching in layers.
