Botox for the Nostrils | YAYOI CLINIC

Depending on the dosage and injection site, Botox injections into the sides of the nose can sometimes make facial expressions look unnatural or make it difficult to smile; therefore, this procedure is not simply a matter of weakening muscle movement.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we take a holistic approach: rather than focusing solely on the nostrils, we carefully assess the overall balance of your facial features—including the mouth and tip of the nose—before performing any procedures. Whether you wish to “make the widening of your nostrils less noticeable when you smile” or “create a sleeker appearance around your nose,” we aim for a natural result by carefully adjusting the injection sites and dosage to meet your specific needs.

Several muscles are involved in the movement of the nostrils. Therefore, it is important to determine which muscles to target based on the specific symptoms you are experiencing.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we inject the appropriate amount into the necessary areas while observing your facial expressions and muscle movements when you smile.

Levator labii superioris alaeque nasi: Restricts the movement that causes the nostrils to flare outward when smiling

Nasal Dilator Muscle: Reduces movements that make the nostrils appear larger

Lower Nasal Septum Muscle: Prevents the tip of the nose from drooping, creating a more refined appearance

By making precise adjustments to match each person’s unique facial expressions and the movement of their nostrils, we aim to achieve a natural look while avoiding excessive changes.

Since Botox injections for the sides of the nose are administered in the delicate area around the nose, many people are concerned about the pain.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we use a proprietary formulation developed by BIANCA CLINIC in Ginza, Tokyo, to provide pain-free Botox treatments designed to minimize discomfort during the procedure. By performing treatments with as little discomfort as possible, we’ve created an environment where even those who “dislike injections” or “are nervous about trying cosmetic procedures for the first time” can feel comfortable receiving treatment.

The procedure takes only about 10 minutes, depending on the volume injected, and involves relatively little downtime, making it an ideal treatment for those who want to naturally enhance the appearance of their nose while minimizing disruption to their daily lives.
