Nostril Stenosis

Description

Nostril stenosis, also known as nasal stenosis or nasal valve stenosis, is a condition where the opening of the nostrils becomes excessively narrow, making it difficult to breathe through the nose. This can feel like chronic nasal congestion or blockage and may cause the nostrils to visibly collapse inward during deep breaths. Common causes include genetics, injuries, previous nose surgeries, aging, chronic sinus issues, or even long-term use of nose piercings. People with this problem often experience symptoms like constant stuffiness, trouble sleeping, mouth breathing at night, and frequent nosebleeds. Addressing nostril stenosis is about more than just appearance—the increased airflow after treatment directly improves overall quality of life and daily comfort. If you’re searching for relief from narrowed nostrils, considering options such as nostril reduction or alar base reduction (alarplasty) in Korea can help restore both function and confidence.
