A wider range of techniques
Ethnic rhinoplasty requires a wider range of surgical techniques than traditional rhinoplasty.
Duration and anaesthesia
The procedure lasts 2 to 3 hours under general anesthesia.
Steps according to the goals
Depending on the desired outcome, it may include: lifting the nasal bridge to increase projection, removing a hump, reducing wide nostrils and alae, and refining the tip.
Cartilage grafts
Cartilage grafts (from the ear or ribs) are used to reinforce and define the nasal structure.

We favor the open approach for optimal graft precision.

We never use silicone implants due to the risk of complications.
