Ethnic Rhinoplasty

Question:
Is it possible to improve the appearance of an ethnic nose while still retaining some of its ethnic characteristics?

Answer:
Yes!

For many years, the "ideal nose" in rhinoplasties performed in the United States and Europe was based on the Greco-Roman, Caucasian model. Of course, in Asia, in Africa, is South America, and elsewhere, there has long been an understanding of important differences between the traditional "European" aesthetic ideals and the ideals for the beautiful “ethnic” face and nose. 

My approach to ethnic rhinoplasty is the same as my approach to all rhinoplasties – to listen carefully to the patient’s concerns, to listen to what the patient does not like about their nose. Then, I add my expertise and advise, and we work together to arrive at a sound surgical plan. The goal of any rhinoplasty should be a nose that is  harmonious with the face it belongs to!
