Nasal flaring occurs when the nostrils widen excessively during expressions or breathing. Botulinum toxin can gently relax the involved muscles, reducing the flare for a more controlled and balanced appearance. This quick treatment enhances nasal symmetry. Results appear within days and last several months.

Excessive nasal flaring can be a natural trait or become more pronounced during expressions such as laughing, speaking, or deep breathing. For some individuals, this movement creates an unbalanced or exaggerated appearance, drawing attention to the nostrils. This occurs due to the overactivity of the Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi (LLSAN) muscle, which controls both upper lip elevation and nasal flaring.

At Haus of Ästhetik, we offer a non-surgical solution using botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox®) to relax the LLSAN muscle, reducing excessive nasal flaring while maintaining natural facial expressions. This subtle refinement creates a softer, more balanced nasal contour without affecting breathing or function.

How Does the Treatment Work?

The LLSAN muscle runs from the side of the nose down to the upper lip and is responsible for lifting the upper lip and widening the nostrils. In some individuals, this muscle is naturally overactive, causing excessive nostril flaring even at rest or becoming exaggerated during speech or laughter. Botulinum toxin injections relax the LLSAN muscle, limiting unnecessary nasal expansion while preserving normal nasal function.


Benefits of Targeting the Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi Muscle

• Reduces excessive nostril flaring, especially during expressions like laughing or speaking.

• Enhances nasal symmetry, creating a more balanced, refined appearance.

• Preserves natural expression, ensuring the nose still moves naturally without exaggerated widening.

• Non-surgical alternative to improve nasal proportion without rhinoplasty.

What Does the Procedure Involve?

• Small, precise botulinum toxin injections are placed into the LLSAN muscle on both sides of the nose.

• The procedure takes approximately 5–10 minutes and requires no downtime.

• The injections are quick and use ultra-fine needles, with minimal discomfort.

• No anaesthesia is required, and normal activities can be resumed immediately.

  • Treatment Duration:

    5–10 minutes

  • Pain Level:

    animal Discomfort.

  • Downtime:

    There is no downtime, though mild redness or swelling at the injection site may occur temporarily.

  • Results Seen:

     Initial results appear within 5–7 days, with full effects visible at 10–14 days.

  • Longevity:

    The effects typically last 3–4 months, after which repeat treatments are required to maintain results.

Who is Suitable for This Treatment?

This treatment is ideal for individuals who:

• Experience excessive nostril flaring, particularly when talking, laughing, or breathing deeply.

• Want to enhance nasal balance and symmetry without affecting natural expression.

• Are looking for a subtle, non-surgical alternative to rhinoplasty.

• Prefer a temporary, adjustable enhancement that can be refined over time.

Our expert practitioners will assess your nasal structure, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals during your consultation to determine whether this treatment is right for you.


Limitations and Considerations

• Temporary Results – Effects last 3–4 months, requiring maintenance treatments for prolonged results.

• Precision is Essential – The LLSAN muscle plays a role in upper lip movement, so precise dosing is necessary to prevent unwanted changes to expression.

• Not a Replacement for Surgery – While botulinum toxin can reduce nasal flaring, it does not alter nasal structurelike rhinoplasty.

Long-Term Benefits of Regular Botulinum Toxin Treatments

• Muscle Fatigue & Reduction in Bulk – With repeated treatments, the targeted muscle becomes weaker over time due to reduced activity, leading to a gradual slimming effect in areas such as the jawline, trapezius, and masseter muscles.

• Prevention of Deep Static Lines – Regular use of botulinum toxin reduces repetitive muscle contractions, preventing wrinkles from becoming permanently etched into the skin and resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

• Increased Longevity of Results – As the underlying muscles adapt to reduced movement, many clients find that they require fewer units over time or that results last longer between treatments.

• Gradual Muscle Wastage (Atrophy) – Over time, the muscle experiences atrophy (a decrease in size and strength), leading to longer-lasting results and a reduced need for frequent treatments in some cases.

• Enhanced Facial and Body Contouring – In areas like the jawline, trapezius, or masseter muscles, consistent treatments reduce bulk and refine the contour, creating a naturally sculpted and balanced aesthetic.
