Rhinoplasty at Yujin Plastic Surgery & Dermatology & Stem Cell Research Center
Yujin offers nose surgery, including nasal alar reduction, within its plastic surgery practice led by Dr. Tae-jo Kang.
Define the width concern
If you are considering alar reduction, identify whether your concern is nostril width, tip width or both and ask what the proposed procedure changes.
Confirm your operator
Ask which surgeon performs your nasal procedure and compare that surgeon’s similar cases at clear follow-up intervals.
Discuss your own anatomy and goals
- Would Dr. Tae-jo Kang perform my nasal procedure?
- Would alar reduction address my width concern, or does the tip need a different approach?
- Can I see comparable alar-reduction cases with their follow-up dates?
Before you decide
Ask to meet the surgeon who will operate, review cases with similar anatomy and confirm the proposed changes in writing. Discuss both appearance and breathing, including what the procedure cannot achieve for your nose.
