What is Ethnic Rhinoplasty?

Ethnic rhinoplasty is a uniquely customized nose surgery procedure designed for patients who are of non-Caucasian descent. This advanced form of rhinoplasty involves surgical techniques tailored to achieve one’s individual aesthetic or functional goals while retaining distinct characteristics of their heritage. “Ethnic rhinoplasty” is actually more of an umbrella term for a procedure that will take the specific ethnicity and ancestral features of each patient into account; therefore, the procedure may be referred to as African-American rhinoplasty, Middle Eastern rhinoplasty, Asian rhinoplasty, Hispanic rhinoplasty, or other term based on the individual patient’s heritage. These treatments are essentially standard rhinoplasty procedures; however, they involve a surgical approach that is particularly sensitive to the aesthetic preferences of patients who would like to ensure they can achieve their overall goals without sacrificing features that are unique to their ethnicity.

You are a candidate for ethnic rhinoplasty if you are in good general health. Non-smokers are preferred candidates.

Personalized Procedure

Your Ethnic Rhinoplasty Procedure

In a rhinoplasty procedure, your doctor rearranges your nasal cartilage and bone structure to provide your desired results. All individuals are unique. There is no standardized procedure for ethnic rhinoplasty. Depending on the extent of revision desired, your doctor may take cartilage from deep inside your nose or from your ear. In addition, cartilage from your ribs or other bones may be used for extensive correction. Rhinoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure, meaning you can go home later the same day of your surgery, although in some cases, hospitalization may be recommended for a day or two.

Love your new look.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty Results

As the swelling fades, your long-lasting final results will begin to emerge. There will still be some changes that happen over the coming months as your nose adjusts and settles into its new shape, based on the look you’ve chosen for yourself. While your nose will continue to age along with the rest of your body, the changes you’ve made as part of your ethnic rhinoplasty are usually considered permanent.

Maximize your results.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty Recovery and Aftercare

Expect some swelling and bruising—along with some slight bleeding and drainage—for up to two weeks or more. Any dressings, splints, and stitches used in your surgery can typically be removed within a week. While most patients can go back to work or school in a week, you should avoid heavy physical activity for a month. Dr. Godek will provide you with detailed recovery instructions. Remember that even minor changes in your nasal structure can often make a dramatic difference in your “look.”

Ethnic Rhinoplasty Frequently Asked Questions

Will insurance pay for my rhinoplasty?

If your surgery is performed to treat a medical problem, such as breathing difficulties, your insurance may cover all or part of the costs. But if your rhinoplasty is a purely aesthetic procedure, insurance will not pay.
