WHY?
Why the Golden Diamant alar lift?

  • 01

    A surgical method that designs the drooping alae to match
    the balance of the face, then excises, raises
    and fixes them, creating a refined
    and beautiful nose!

  • 02

    With over 20 years of surgical
    know-how from Dr. Song Sang-hoon,
    board-certified plastic surgeon,
    the surgical method is varied
    to suit each nose, with an
    individually tailored design

  • 03

    One-to-one tailored consultation
    for fundamental improvement that considers
    the structural balance of the face
    and for natural, harmonious proportions

Refined alae suited to your facial features!
The Golden Diamant alar lift

As explained by a board-certified plastic surgeon

What are ideal alae?

Because facial proportions and nose shapes
differ from person to person, through custom consultation
we consider the shape of the whole nose and its harmony with the face
to create refined alae
at the most ideal proportion.

Ideal alae

Front diagram of the nose — a vertical dotted line set outside the right nostril wing labelled "Flare", the gap between the wing and the line marked "2mm", and below, two dimension lines for "width of the nasal base" and "width between the alae"

Alar width (flare)

The ideal alar condition is met when the flare distance — between the base of the nose
and the outer edges of the nostril wings — is about 4 mm.

In harmony with the proportions of the whole face

The 3 POINTS of Golden Diamant nose surgery

POINT 1 – one-to-one custom alar lift

With a custom chart analysing the strengths and weaknesses of the alae,
a surgical method suited to the characteristics of the nose is chosen
to help you to an alar lift in harmony with your face.

POINT 2 – a natural alar lift that considers facial balance

Rather than forcing the alae upward, we consider the overall balance,
including facial balance and the shape of the philtrum,
to create natural alae.

POINT 3 – custom aftercare

With a systematic aftercare system including custom care and scar treatment,
we encourage rapid recovery after surgery and deliver more satisfying results
with less scarring.

The Golden Diamant alar lift method that suits you

  • STEP 1

    The necessary incision lines are designed on the inner alae, the nasal base and the lateral mucosa,
    and the incision is made delicately.

  • STEP 2

    The incised mucosa is dissected and elevated to secure mobility.

  • STEP 3

    The elevated mucosa is sutured inward and upward with regard to anatomical alignment
    and the aesthetic result.

    *In some cases alar reduction may be combined.

*Side effects such as bleeding / swelling / scarring may occur
*However, whether side effects occur may differ from person to person, and recovery times may vary.

1:1 Consultation (new window)

Golden Diamant stays with you through recovery

Golden Diamant continues to monitor your recovery even after surgery or a procedure is finished.

Where the medical team judges that scar care is needed because of an incision or tissue harvesting, a scar care programme using Fraxel laser and scar-reducing medication is provided up to three times at no additional cost, according to the state of recovery.

If a scar remains after basic care or further treatment is needed, the medical team checks the condition in person and advises on the care required from among more than six lasers, more than four medications and stem cell treatment.

We do not stop at the surgery or procedure; we check the course of recovery carefully and continue the care that is needed.

  1. 01An aftercare kit tailored to each operation is provided
