Asian Rhinoplasty: Why Experience Matters (Updated 2024)

Rhinoplasty is popular among plastic surgery procedures. It’s also one of the most technically demanding surgeries. The nose is a complex structure, and it can differ a lot between patients, especially when ethnicity is a factor.

Here in San Francisco, I offer both rhinoplasty and septoplasty, and I have a lot of experience working with Asian Americans. Choosing a surgeon with experience in Asian rhinoplasty procedure is a crucial to obtaining superior results.

How My Qualifications & Experience Affect Your Results

In addition to being certified by 3 distinct medical boards, I completed a 5-year residency in otolaryngology – head and neck surgery. This additional experience offered me a wealth of hands-on learning that has served me well with facial plastic surgery — experience I would not have gained if I had followed a more “traditional” track. My unique background has given me a more comprehensive perspective for facial procedures.

Achieving Overall Facial Harmony

In my practice, I’ve performed rhinoplasty on a diverse array of patients. I particularly enjoy working with rhinoplasty patients of Asian descent, and I’d certainly consider it one of my specialties. When creating my surgical plan, I strive to meet the patient’s desires, of course. But beyond that, I also work hard to make sure the nose complements the patient’s existing facial features, for a result that’s proportional and unique in its beauty.

Correcting Functional Issues

In addition to cosmetic rhinoplasty, I offer functional procedures, such as septoplasty, in my San Francisco practice. Septoplasty alone won’t alter the appearance of the nose; instead, it can improve respiratory function and solve issues related to the anatomical structure of the nose, such as snoring. A deviated septum, nasal polyps, and enlarged turbinates are common conditions that can be treated with functional rhinoplasty. These conditions require an advanced surgeon to create maximum results with minimal scarring.

Schedule Your Consultation

Choosing to undergo Asian rhinoplasty is significant decision. It’s crucial to work with a skilled, board-certified plastic surgeon who can guide you with expert knowledge, set clear and achievable goals, and offer the support you need to feel confident and understood throughout the entire process.
