The size and shape of your nose are determined by your genetics and often related to your ethnic background. Certain ethnic groups have specific nose traits that may be undesirable to individuals. Ethnic and Asian rhinoplasty options can reshape the nose to address specific traits that impact the aesthetics of the nose and facial balance. At Maia Plastic Surgery, we offer Asian rhinoplasty and ethnic nose jobs at our clinic in Tysons Corner, VA.

Some individuals of Asian descent have flatter bridges on their noses. This is a common trait, but it is not always a welcomed appearance. Asian rhinoplasty often focuses on raising the nasal bridge to enhance the nose height. This can create a more desirable profile and achieve facial balance. Some Asian nose job surgeries may include reshaping or resizing the nostrils if they appear too wide or flared. The goal is to create an Asian nose that blends beautifully with the face and compliments the eyes, mouth and other features.

Ethnic Nose Job Surgery

Asians are not the only ethnic group that have specific nose traits that may be undesirable. Middle Eastern, African and many other ethnic groups have nose traits that may detract from facial balance. Dr. Munique Maia at Maia Plastic Surgery is a board-certified plastic surgeon with many years of experience working with patients from many different ethnic backgrounds to achieve their desired appearance.
