Hooded Nostrils

Description

Hooded nostrils, also known as an "overhanging alar rim," "droopy nostrils," or "dropped rim," describe a condition where the outer edge of the nostril (the alar rim) curves downward and extends below its ideal position, often giving the nose a shadowed or covered look in profile. This concern—medically referred to as a hanging ala or overhanging ala—can make the nostrils appear smaller or less balanced, and is more common in certain ethnicities such as Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African populations. Many patients seek correction of hooded nostrils to achieve a more refined, symmetrical look and to boost their confidence. In South Korea, advanced surgical techniques like the "sail excision" or specialized alarplasty are commonly performed to gently lift and shape the drooping rim, producing natural-looking, balanced results with minimal scarring. If you are considering treatment for overhanging nostrils or a hanging ala, Korean clinics offer world-class expertise and technology to help you achieve your aesthetic goals safely and effectively.
