brand story
Bringing Your Dream Beauty to Life
Realize,
truly yours.
This is not simply a surgery to reduce the width of the nose,
but a pursuit of delicate and natural changes
that enhance overall facial harmony and impression.

By thoroughly analyzing each individual’s nasal shape and facial structure,
we design nostril lines that blend naturally and beautifully—never excessive.

With the meticulous techniques of experienced specialists
and refined suturing methods designed to minimize scarring,
we deliver results that bring lasting satisfaction over time.

Inner Incision vs Outer Incision
What’s the Difference?
Inner Incision
Inner Incision Method
Suitable when the lower nostrils appear wider than the upper ones, but the outer alar wings are proportional.
Outer Incision
Outer Incision Method
Recommended when the nostrils are already proportionate in size, but the outer alar wings are longer.
Synergy of Inner & Outer Incision
Permanent Reduction Effect
Alar Incision
Dual incision from both inner and outer alar sides
Suturing
Reducing and tightening the nostrils with sutures
Why does RISE remove sutures on Day 3?
The alar area has highly developed sebaceous glands.
If sutures remain for more than 3–4 days,
they may leave noticeable scars.
To prevent this, RISE removes sutures on Day 3.
What makes RISE different?
To make daily life more comfortable and free,
RISE uses transparent sutures
for the outer closure.

Which Alar Reduction is Right for Me?
Alar reduction is not just about narrowing — harmony with the face is key.

Since the causes of wide-looking nostrils vary,
a customized design is needed that considers
nasal structure, proportions, and even changes when smiling.

Through accurate diagnosis, we help you find
the ideal line for a natural and balanced impression.
Alar Reduction
Wide Nostrils
Nostrils that appear wide from the front
are refined with skin excision and cartilage fixation.
Alar Reduction
Nostrils Flare When Smiling
When nostrils widen while smiling,
the inner structure is adjusted considering muscle movement.
Alar Reduction
Asymmetrical Nostrils
Nostril asymmetry is corrected
by addressing both proportion and movement.

Alar Design
Design Planning
By analyzing facial shape, proportions, the distance between the eyes, and the width of the alar base,
we design the most ideal alar line.
Incision and Suturing
Incision and Suturing
Incisions are made both internally and externally to bring the alar tissue inward, then sutured for a balanced shape. Transparent sutures are used, allowing a quick return to daily activities.
Stitch Removal
Recovery & Stitch Removal
Since the alar area has well-developed sebaceous glands, sutures are removed on the 3rd day to minimize scarring and promote faster recovery.
3D-CT Scanner
Precise Diagnosis with 3D-CT
Before Surgery!
Using state-of-the-art 3D-CT, we diagnose
internal structures and functional issues not visible externally.
Evaluation of Autologous Tissue
By analyzing internal structures, cartilage position, and skin layers, we accurately identify underlying issues.
Assessment of Functional Conditions
We examine conditions such as deviated septum and nasal valve collapse, and improve both function and appearance.
We provide customized plastic surgery solutions tailored to each individual’s unique facial structure and features.
