What Is An Ethnic Rhinoplasty?
There are many different types of ethnic rhinoplasty procedures. Many patients come to Dr. Correa to minimize the appearance of certain aspects that they feel stick out. Dr. Correa helps bring a better balance to the overall facial appearance without looking overly westernized.
While there are fundamental principles of rhinoplasty that apply to all patients, there are specific nuances present in patients of different heritages that are essential for a good outcome. Dr. Correa uses his extensive skill and artistry to perform;
- African American Rhinoplasties: Common complaints among many African American patients include a low nasal bridge, poorly defined tip, and/or overly wide nostrils.
- Asian Rhinoplasties: This procedure often bolsters low nasal bridges and provides more projection to flatter-looking noses.
- Middle Eastern/Persian Rhinoplasties: Dr. Correa helps to address common concerns such as an elongated nose, downward projecting tip, and/or a hump on the bridge of the nose.
- Hispanic Rhinoplasties: Patients of Hispanic descent may have a variety of the above concerns they’d like to address. Dr. Correa strives to bring balance and symmetry to the face by redefining the nose.
For functional rhinoplasties, there may be no need to alter the appearance of the nose at all. Dr. Correa will talk to you about your options at the time of your in-person consultation.
