I am African and my nose is something I really want to change. My nostrils are so wide and flat. I feel so uncomfortable when I look into the mirror. Can I achieve a better result with Rhinoplasty ? How much does it cost? plus can I maintain my ethnicity and will the result be permanent ?
Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate, some advices: Thank you very much for the questions.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, After having analyzed all the info. and photos provided to us, i recommend you perform an Open Full Rhinoplasty, includding narrowing of the nasal base and nostrils, with nasal bones treatment (controled fracture) and alar + triangular nasal cartilages re-shaping.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Answer: Can Nose be 'Fixed'? Yes, your nose can be improved more to your liking. Your concerns are actually quite common and there are a number of techniques available to create a nasal appearance more to your liking. Results are typically permanent. Costs vary from region to region, the complexity of the procedure and the experience of the surgeon. That said, I would put the qualifications, experience and 'bedside' manner of the surgeon at the top of the list rather than pricing. Best of Luck Dr Harrell

Answer: Keeping a natural ethnic look is possible with an experienced specialist A properly trained and experienced rhinoplasty specialist should absolutely be able to come up with a surgical plan that both addresses your concerns and honours your ethnic heritage. It's very important that you find a facial plastic surgeon who has experience in African-American rhinoplasty and who can show you before and after pictures of patients with similar ethnic backgrounds and the outcomes achieved. The cost of rhinoplasty surgery depends on the need, the location, and the experience of the surgeon. Although it is possible to have revision rhinoplasty if you are unhappy with the results, an experienced surgeon should be able to achieve the outcome you are looking for to last the rest of your life. Our clinic has a VECTRA 3D imaging system, which simulates the expected results so you can preview what you will look like as the result of a rhinoplasty.
