Septo-Rhinoplasty - For Indian Female

By SVP on 30 Oct 2012

I wanted to get a septo-rhinoplasty done to improve my breathing, sinus issues and also the appearance of my nose. I am from India and most doctors in Houston TX probably have experience working on Caucasian noses. Every ethnicity has different nose and different general face structure. I am just worried that they will try to fix my nose just like a Caucasian nose. I have seen three doctors until now. I have narrowed down to two, due to their experience in facial plastic surgery and ENT background which will help them fix my breathing and sinuses better. I am just not sure about the Rhinoplasty part and also how to communicate what exactly I need. Any suggestions?

You're smart to want to seek out a surgeon who knows what he or she is doing with Indian noses. Here's a blog post on searching for the right "ethnic nose" PS.
