Hello~
your beauty universe! This is Weverse Plastic Surgery :)
Today, regarding the pros and cons of incisional and non-incisional reduction surgery,
Dr. Shim Jeong-hwan will be explaining them to us.
Shall we learn about alar reduction?
There are incisional and non-incisional methods for alar reduction.
There is the incisional surgery, which involves excising the skin and pulling and suturing the remaining alar base,
and the non-incisional surgery, which gathers the alae by making only small incisions inside, passing a thread through both sides of the nasal base, and tying it.
The incisional method has the advantage of providing a more significant and permanent effect.
Because the skin is excised and sutured, the effect does not diminish due to the thread coming loose.
However, because the skin is cut and sutured, a scar may remain.
Therefore, it is important to design and perform the surgery so that the scar is not easily visible.
The non-incisional method has the advantage of leaving no visible scars.
On the other hand, the effect may decrease as the tension of the thread tied inside to pull the alae gradually loosens.
Therefore, the surgery is performed with a slight overcorrection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What methods are there for alar reduction surgery?
There are two methods: incisional and non-incisional. Incisional surgery involves cutting the skin, pulling the remaining alar, and suturing it, while non-incisional surgery involves making a small incision inside, passing a thread through, and tying it to gather the alar.
What are the advantages of incisional alar reduction surgery?
The biggest advantage is that the surgical effect is significant and permanent. Since the skin is directly cut and sutured, the effect of the surgery does not diminish over time due to the loosening of the thread.
Does incisional surgery leave a lot of scars?
Yes, there is a possibility of scars remaining because the skin is cut and sutured. Therefore, it is very important to design meticulously and perform the surgery precisely so that the scars are as inconspicuous as possible.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of non-incisional alar reduction surgery?
The advantage is that there are no visible scars. However, a disadvantage is that the tension of the thread pulling the alar from the inside may gradually loosen over time, which can reduce the reduction effect.
How can the reduced effect of non-incisional alar reduction surgery be compensated for?
It is compensated by performing a slight overcorrection during the surgery. Anticipating that the effect will decrease as the thread tension loosens over time, the alar is gathered slightly more than the target at the time of the initial surgery.
