Question:
I am of Chinese descent and want to augment the bridge of my nose for cosmetic reasons. I have read that Asian people look to narrow the appearance of their facial features, not enhance them. Am I part of a serious minority?
Answer:
Certainly not. This is one of the most common requests made by Asian patients. This look is not only desired by many Asian Americans but also throughout China and the Far East. The plastic surgical literature has hundreds of papers written by Chinese and Asian surgeons on different techniques employed to do this on the local population. So go ahead, don’t be shy, you are definitely not alone in your quest for aesthetic improvement.
