Nose Job (Alarplasty)

Refine Your Profile with Natural-Looking Results

A nose job is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to refine the size, shape, and proportions of the nose, creating better balance and harmony with the rest of the face. Whether reducing the width of the nostrils, refining the nasal tip, correcting a dorsal hump, or improving overall nasal contours, the procedure is carefully tailored to enhance your appearance while preserving your unique facial characteristics.


At French Aesthetic Medical & Surgical Clinic, Dr. Albane Bienaime combines advanced surgical expertise with an artistic approach to create elegant, natural-looking results that complement each patient's individual facial features.


What Is a Nose Job?

A nose job is a highly specialised procedure that reshapes the nose to improve both its appearance and overall facial balance. It may involve refining the nasal bridge, narrowing wide nostrils, reducing nostril flare, reshaping the nasal tip, or correcting asymmetry.


For patients seeking nostril reduction, a small amount of tissue is carefully removed from the base of the nostrils to reduce their width and create a more proportionate appearance while maintaining natural facial harmony.



Every procedure is individually planned to achieve balanced, long-lasting results that suit each patient's anatomy and aesthetic goals.

What Concerns Can a Nose Job Treat?


A nose job can improve:

  • Wide or flared nostrils
  • A broad nose
  • A prominent nasal hump
  • A drooping or bulbous nasal tip

  • Nasal deformities following injury or trauma

During your consultation, Dr. Bienaime will carefully assess your facial anatomy, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for you..

The Procedure

A nose job is typically performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the complexity of the procedure.

For nostril reduction, small incisions are strategically placed within the natural creases where the nostrils meet the cheeks, allowing excess tissue to be removed with minimal visible scarring.


When additional reshaping is required, the nasal structures are carefully refined to achieve a balanced, natural appearance.


Every procedure is customised to the patient's anatomy to ensure harmonious and long-lasting results.

Recovery and Results

Recovery is generally straightforward, with mild swelling and tenderness expected during the first few days. Most patients can return to normal daily activities within a short period.



As healing progresses, the nostrils appear more refined and proportionate. Final results become increasingly visible over the following weeks as swelling subsides and the tissues settle.
