Rhinoplasty should reflect who you are
Rhinoplasty can look fake or artificial and we too have seen some which don't seem to fit. This can be very important in and Asian rhinoplasty. The bridge can be lifted and the tip shaped, though it is important to balance the result with your face and ethnicity as a whole.

The Asian rhinoplasty when performed in a conservative fashion is an excellent way to change the nose without making it look overdone. It is important to have good communication with your surgeon, computer imaging, and recognize that the surgeon has performed many Asian rhinoplasties with augmentation so as to understand what you are getting yourself into.

Go to someone who does a lot of Asian noses.
I'm telling you this as a surgeon who doesn't do a lot of Asian noses. There are intricasies of the Asian rhinoplasty that experience helps. Check around in your community and see who has the most experience. Ask to see pictures of the surgeons work. Hopefully he or she will have someone that looks like you in the preop picture so you can get some idea of what you might look like post op.
