Ethnic Rhinoplasty

An ethnic nose job is a cosmetic procedure that is performed to change the appearance of the nose in a person of ethnic descent, such as an African America rhinoplasty (African American nose job) or Asian. This type of nose surgery is significantly different from the widely known traditional rhinoplasty that involves nose reduction (taking away bone and cartilage), typically among Caucasian individuals.

Ethnic rhinoplasty involves nose augmentation (adding cartilage and structure) for individuals who are looking to correct a flattened nose, flaring nostrils, or other ethnic characteristics. Candidates for this type of surgery may be of African American background, Asian (Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino) heritage, or Latin American or Hispanic ethnicity.

In ethnic rhinoplasty, the objective is to enhance the appearance of the nose without attempting to alter the person's ethnic features, ensuring that it blends naturally with the rest of their face. The procedure aims to improve the nose's appearance while preserving the individual's ethnic characteristics and facial harmony.
