    Your genetics determine the shape and size of the nose you are born with, but you do have options for changing the hand you were dealt. Ethnicity is commonly apparent in the nose shape, from large dorsal humps or wide nostrils, to flatter Asian noses with a minimal bridge. Asian or ethnic rhinoplasty is a popular cosmetic procedure that can alter the shape to a more pleasing shape for the individual. Dr. Rousso is one of the leading rhinoplasty plastic surgeons in New York City, offering beautiful and balanced nose jobs for all ethnic groups.

    There is nothing wrong with an ethnic nose, but in some cases, the features may be overpowering or seem unbalanced. The goal for ethnic rhinoplasty is not to change the ethnic appearance but create a better version that meshes well with the other facial features. For those of Asian descent, the issue is often a lack of a pronounced bridge, creating a flattened appearance. A minor change to give the bridge more height can improve the profile and balance of the face, while still retaining the ethnicity of the nose.
