I have been very unhappy with my nose for years and have wanted rhinoplasty for a while now although I am just confused if you can call my nose Asian or Africa nose. (I'm half Asian, half African). It is wide and almost have no bridge and with no cartilage on the point. I want a thinner nose with ABIT of definition on the bridge. I do not want my nose to be completely different and fake. With that being said, how would you define my nose? and what should l do?
Answer: Rhinoplasty I think that you would be very happy with a rhinoplasty that adds more tip definition and more height to your nasal bridge. This can be done without making the nose look fake or like it has obviously had surgery. You will likely need to have grafts taken from elsewhere in the body, such as the rib. The cartilage from your septum or ear could be used, but I suspect that the septal cartilage and the ear cartilage in your case is not likely to be strong enough to provide good, long-term support. Look for an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon in your area.

Answer: Ethnic rhinoplasty Your concerns are very common. Many patients desire better nasal tip definition and to build up the bridge of the nose to improve definition there as well. These can be performed using your own cartilage harvested either from the nasal septum, ear, or rib, or using implant material, which is also a great option for many patients and can work quite well. Computer simulation imaging is something that I provide for my patients at no cost and can be really helpful to improve communication between the patient and surgeon about what types of changes are possible and desired. Rhinoplasty results should look natural and not fake, and this is totally possible.Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert to discuss all of your concerns in person.All the best,

Answer: Rhinoplasty Candidate Your nose could be improved with rhinoplasty, which would give permanent improvements in symmetry and shape. When you meet with a facial plastic surgeon, he or she will consider your nose in balance with your other features. You can bring the photos of noses that you think would be flattering to your face and these can be discussed. I hope this helps.
