I’m of mixed Asian heritage and I was wondering if I should go to someone who specializes in Asian nose surgery or if a mainline plastic surgeon would be fine. I’ve read there are certain anatomical differences that make Asian nose surgery more difficult then regular surgery. I’m looking to have my nose slimmed and brought up slightly. I have a slight septum deviation but it’s almost entirely cosmetics.

Answer: Consult with a specialist An Asian rhinoplasty specialist will be able to comprehensively address the issues you have with your nose.One thing to keep in mind though is that there is a limitation to the amount of tip refinement you can achieve (how small/narrow) because of the thickness of your skin. While there are a variety of approaches and techniques employed by various surgeons, it is up to you to do your due diligence to find a rhinoplasty specialist experienced in Asian rhinoplasty in order to achieve the best results possible. Using autologous grafts (tissue and cartilage from your own body) will provide the safest and most permanent results.Consult with 2-3 of these surgeons in person and determine your comfort level with their approach, demeanor, and before and after results. Good luck.

Answer: Should I look for a nose specialist? It's important to look for a rhinoplasty specialist, Since nasal surgery is one of the most difficult procedures performed correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery. Study your prospective surgeon's before and after rhinoplasty photo gallery which should be extensive and reflective of their work. Board certifications, ratings, reviews, and testimonials are also important. It's also important to have realistic expectations upon what you're trying to accomplish. Digital computer imaging may be helpful in the communication process.
