Nostril Botox in Seoul

Nostril Botox explained

Nostril Botox, called 콧볼 보톡스 in Korea, treats nostrils that widen noticeably when you move your face. It relaxes the small dilator naris muscle on each side of the nose. The change is in movement, not in the resting width of the nose.

How Nostril Botox works

The doctor injects a very small dose into the muscle on the side of each nostril. With less activity, the nostrils flare less when you smile, speak or breathe in hard. It is often combined with nose tip Botox or nose filler for a more refined profile.
