Are There Any Approaches to Nostril Reduction?
Some nose jobs I've seen seem to have included nicely done nostril reduction. Is there just one approach to achieve such result (which will require external incisions on both sides of the wedges), or are there more approaches?

Nostril reduction is a graduated approach
Nostril reduction is a graduated approach. In my opinion, nostril reduction involves a stepwise approach.

These scars are imperceptible. Next, if the nostrils tend to not only be wide... more

Many approaches, but beware
There are several approaches to nostril narrowing, but beware, nostril narrowing can also cause difficulty breathing and may not be reversible. The often used aesthetic is from caucasians where the base of the nostrils should be as wide as the distance between the eyes. This varies by ethnicity of the patient though. Narrowing the nostril too much may cause significant breathing difficulty and will be very difficult if not impossible to correct.
Nasal width reductions are specific to each problem
Nasal width reduction is used for different problems and thus the techniques are different for the desired result. Problem #1-Very wide base with poorly projecting tip. For this problem increasing tip projection along with medially placed wedge resection works well. The wedge resection is usually well hidden. Problem #2 - Very wide base, poorly projecting tip and rounded nostrils. Same as problem #1, but with added excision inside the nostril to flatten out the rounded nostril
