In today’s world, ethnic rhinoplasty continues to grow in popularity, despite being one of the most challenging plastic surgery procedures.
Additional difficulties with Asian rhinoplasty are typically linked to increasing the projection of the nose and defining the tip of the nose. Modern surgical techniques in rhinoplasty make it possible to achieve desired cosmetic and functional results.
What is Asian Rhinoplasty?
One of the most difficult ethnic rhinoplasty surgeries that facial plastic surgeons perform is Asian rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty in Asian patients needs to be carried out carefully with a keen eye and extra care. The anatomy of the nose differs from one ethnicity to another. To perform the Asian rhinoplasty surgery while preserving the unique features of the patient’s Asian ethnicity, plastic surgeons should avoid creating a “cookie cutter” nose. Asian noses are characterized by a low bridge, wider nostrils and poorly defined tip which is bulbous. Also, they have thicker nasal skin. Therefore, these differences in the nose structure can cause Asian noses to look wide and flat. Thanks to Asian Rhinoplasty, these imperfections are improved and a better facial appearance and balance are achieved.
Asian Rhinoplasty Techniques
In Asian rhinoplasty, the most typical change to improve flaws without compromising the unique Asian appearance is to raise the nasal bridge, refine the tip of the nose and narrow the nostrils. In some cases, the septal cartilage might be deficient. Thus, different techniques can be combined with Asian rhinoplasty. Using the patient’s own cartilage from ears or ribs and silicone implants allow plastic surgeons to augment the nose. Open or closed approaches can be preferred according to the patient’s nose structure and needs.
Who Can Get an Asian Rhinoplasty?
Ideal candidates for an Asian rhinoplasty are Asian people who want to enhance the shape and size of their nose, nasal tip and bridge and narrow the nostrils while keeping their unique ethnic identity. If you are also in good health, a non-smoker -or willing to quit during the surgery and recovery process- you might consider Asian rhinoplasty.
Asian Rhinoplasty Results and Recovery
For your Asian rhinoplasty, you will be placed under general anesthesia and the surgery will take 2-4 hours. After the surgery, you can experience some pain and nausea which is eased by medications easily. Following the surgery, you need to avoid smoking, strenuous physical activities, exercise and lifting heavy stuff. The splint that is attached to your nose will be removed after one week. Bruising and swelling will fade over a short time. However, it takes approximately 9-12 weeks to see the final results.
