I know that a lot of AA noses tend to have a sort of swooped bridge with a wide tip. But my nose has a very romanesque, humped prominent bridge with a broad nasal tip as well. My nostrils are thick and my tip spreads when I smile. The cartilage in the tip of my nose also feels very bumpy and malformed; complete with creases as well, as if i have been pressing it in an upward manner. I don't want these things to be like this but don't know how a nose job would look or turn out
Answer: African American Nose AA noses usually fall into a category of platyrrhine or flattened nasal shape. In order to have shape to the nose you have to have strong architecture. Therefore these noses need cartilage grafts or implants to give them shape and to look thinner

Answer: #AfricanAmericanMaleRhinoplasty Many African American men get rhinoplasty surgery and are happy with the result. There is no reason you could not be one them by choosing your surgeon wisely.It sounds like you are unsure of exactly what you want changed and are afraid of losing any masculine features. You need to have a frank open discussion with your surgeon as to what bothers you and what you want changed. Then you need to go over the options available to you before you pick any specific options. Computer imaging of an after surgery result will likely make you more at ease going forward with surgery and also help you choose which options you want performed at surgery.I hope you realize that this format of posting questions and receiving answers lacks the face to face direct communication required for you to make an informed decision regarding your surgery.My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship in order to know if this assessment is valid.

Answer: How would rhinoplasty look on a black male? What you described can frequently be cosmetically improved with a rhinoplasty no matter what one's ethnic background. A natural appearing result should be in harmony with you other facial features.Keep in mind, that following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you what to do without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of the proposed operative procedure with you may not be in your best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California
