How would I describe this type of rhinoplasty to a doctor? (Photo)

When you consult with your surgeon, I believe it is sufficient to state that you do not want your radix to be raised. If you're dorsal it nasal implant is fashioned and positioned properly, there should not be a problem. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Thank you for that excellent question. I have been performing ethnic rhinoplasty, including Asian rhinoplasty, for over the last five years, exclusively using rib cartilage with muscle fascia. The primary reason for this choice is its near-perfect biocompatibility and the ease with which it can be adjusted to meet the patient's desires. With non-biological materials, although surgeons can make some modifications due to their predefined sizes, these adjustments are irreversible and often result in a higher radix. I have had many revision patients whose main reason for seeking surgery was a high radix. My recommendation for all augmentation rhinoplasties is to use rib cartilage; it's cheaper, safer, and very easy to adjust according to your wishes!
