Description: African American rhinoplasty was performed to decrease the overall size of the nose as well as create more definition. Ethnic rhinoplasty is a specialized technique where Dr. Somenek uses cartilage grafts to add strength and support to the nose while at the same time improving the definition and overall shape. The nasal bones were narrowed as were the nostrils which can be seen on the base view of the nose. Additionally, the nasal tip has improved definition and is more refined while still maintaining the ethnic features of his nose.
