RESECTION OF THE ALAR BASES OF THE NOSE
The alar bases are the part of the nose located at the bottom of the nostrils, and they determine the width of the nose. It is common for people of African descent to have very wide alar bases, although this can occur in other cases as well. Excessive width of the alar bases can be corrected by a surgical procedure known as “alar base resection”.
In fact, this surgery can be performed under local anaesthesia on its own, but it is most commonly performed as part of a change as part of a surgery for conventional rhinoplasty.
