General information
Plastic surgery of the wings of the nose helps to give the correct size and volume to the nostrils. Both local and general anesthesia can be used. The choice of anesthesia depends on the type of defects and the patient's health.

Procedure for correcting the wings of the nose
To reduce the thickness or width of the wings, as well as to reduce the distance between the nostrils, excision of the skin around the contour of the nostrils and the skin-mucous membrane is used. The incision is made in the fold of the wings, so after suturing the scars are practically invisible. If partial or complete restoration of the wings of the nose is required, excess cartilage is removed, soft tissues around the nose are mobilized, and cartilage transplants are performed, taken from the auricle or nasal septum. If additional tissue is needed, it is transplanted from other parts of the body. In some cases, the wings acquire a new contour only after plastic surgery of the tip of the nose. If the aesthetic defects are severe, the flaws in the wings of the nose are corrected first, and then other necessary manipulations are performed.
