Ethnic Rhinoplasty

This text contains guidelines, operative techniques, and postoperative management for rhinoplasty of the non-Caucasian nose. Starting with the basics of Black, Hispanic, and Asian nasal anatomy, the book goes on to encompass preoperative nasal evaluation and surgical planning. The author demonstrates his techniques, including those for nasal septum and turbinates, nasal dorsum and bridge, alar rim and nasal base reduction, and the nasal tip. Close to 200 clinical and operative illustrations - 50 in full colour - are backed by important protocols for revision rhinoplasty as well as for the management of risks and complications. It should be of interest to plastic surgeons wishing to add non-Caucasian nasal refinement techniques to their office practice.
