Are there Any Doctors Who Specialize in African American Rhinoplasty?
By DHunter on 31 Jul 2011
Ive been wanted to get my small hump on my bridge shaved down and my Tip and Nostrils LESS round and more defined. Boxed off. (NOT Pointy) Currently my nose is very round. I want my face to have a stronger more masculine approach I want my tip and nostrils more boxed off. Are there any Doctors who specialize in nautral Ethnic Reconstronstruction?
Thank you so much for letting us know Lucia. DHunter, did you ever find a doctor?
I am multiracial (black, white and Latina) with an AA type nose and had a rhinoplasty about 5 years ago. I went to Dr. Harold Clavin in Santa Monica California. He did an excellent job; He narrowed the bridge, narrowed the tip but its still rounded, (not pointy)and narrowed the nostrils just a bit. It fits my face so much better. Now people see my whole face and not just " a nose". The majority of my friends didn't don't know I had a nose job, they just thought my face looked prettier. Email me and I'll send you some before and after pics {Edited by RealSelf to protect you from spambots. Please use RealSelf's PM system for your safety.}
Why don't you go on and ask a question, who in NYC specializes in African American Rhinoplasty? You should get quite a few responses. :)
DHunter, paste the link below into your browser because it is better to ask under the Rhinoplasty category, more docs will see it:

Ok.... I found a doc for you in NYC that specializes in African American Rhino.

His website you can connect to from his profile, but it is a major specialty of his. :)
Check out this link too from his sitehttp://africanamericanrhinoplasty.com/
Dr Nassif, also known as Dr. 90210 is in LA and he specializes in African American Rhino but that's a long ways away. Dor Slupchynskyj is known for this in NYC.
Of course! :)
Thanks, Kate!
