Renowned for his extensive experience as a board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Saman has a deep understanding of the facial aesthetic, especially when it comes to the subtleties of the Asian nose. His surgical techniques cater to the individual aesthetic goals of his Asian patients, with an unerring focus on minimizing the risk of complications.
Every rhinoplasty journey begins with a thorough consultation.

We make sure to understand your aesthetic goals, talk through potential risks, and explore the possibility of using grafts, additional cartilage, nasal implants, or other Asian rhinoplasty techniques.
In the Asian rhinoplasty procedure, we make precision incisions and strategically reshape the nasal septum, bones, and nasal tip cartilage. This careful process results in a natural-looking and well-proportioned nose shape. Nasal surgery can also involve the use of grafts or implants and may address functional issues like nasal obstruction to improve airflow through the nasal passages.
If you had a rhinoplasty before and the initial results do not meet expectations, Dr. Saman offers revision rhinoplasty. This dedication ensures that your new nose complements your ethnic features and remains authentic to your Asian heritage.
Asian rhinoplasty is a plastic surgery procedure specifically designed for individuals of Asian descent. It is a specialized area of ethnic rhinoplasty that requires a comprehensive understanding of the Asian anatomy and the facial balance unique to Asian features.
Dr. Masoud Saman, an esteemed Asian rhinoplasty surgeon and one of New York’s top facial plastic surgeons, has an extensive knowledge of Asian rhinoplasty. He brings to the table an in-depth understanding of Asian features and the common requests of Asian rhinoplasty patients.
An Asian nose, characterized by distinct features requires a nuanced approach in rhinoplasty. Its unique anatomy includes aspects such as the nasal dorsum, nostrils, and nasal bones. In addition, thicker skin and wider nostrils, often present in Asian patients, pose unique challenges and opportunities. As a skilled plastic surgeon, Dr. Saman applies precise Asian rhinoplasty techniques, reshaping the Asian nasal bridge and nostrils while preserving the balance and proportionality of the face.
Asian and Caucasian noses are inherently different at the anatomical level. Notably, the Asian nose often features a wider nostril size, a lower nasal dorsum, and a layer of fat that contributes to a rounder appearance. Meanwhile, the Caucasian nose tends to be larger and narrower, with a higher nasal dorsum. These differences necessitate an approach that respects and enhances the natural beauty and unique characteristics of the Asian nose.
Like any surgery, Asian rhinoplasty carries a chance of complications, such as bleeding, infection, and poor healing, which could lead to a noticeable scar. However, these risks are significantly reduced when you choose an experienced Asian rhinoplasty surgeon like Dr. Saman.
Asian rhinoplasty offers substantial rewards, too. It can enhance your natural features, improve your facial balance, and boost your self-esteem.
Before undergoing an Asian rhinoplasty procedure, here are some important considerations:
Asian rhinoplasty requires a surgeon with a nuanced understanding of the unique aesthetic and functional aspects of the Asian nose. Common mistakes include over-reduction of the nasal tissues, overly narrowed nose, and insufficient attention to the overall facial balance.
Asian rhinoplasty is a type of nose reshaping surgery specifically designed for individuals of Asian descent. Unlike a one-size-fits-all approach, this Asian plastic surgery procedure takes into account the specific needs of Asian patients to deliver natural-looking results that complement their aesthetic appearance.
Asian rhinoplasty differs from other nose surgery procedures by focusing specifically on the unique facial anatomy and ethnic features of Asian patients. It often involves building a more prominent bridge, correcting a flat bridge, or straightening a crooked bridge, and refining the shape of the nose to enhance the attractive features of the Asian face.
The recovery period for Asian rhinoplasty, like other facial plastic surgery procedures, varies depending on the individual and the surgical techniques used. However, most patients can return to their normal lives about two weeks post-surgery. Proper aftercare, such as avoiding any strain on the blood vessels in the nose, can expedite recovery.
The cost of rhinoplasty, including Asian rhinoplasty, can vary significantly based on the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon’s expertise, and the location of the practice. For the most accurate cost estimation, it is recommended to consult with a rhinoplasty specialist.
Ethnic rhinoplasty procedures, including Asian rhinoplasty, are often considered among the most challenging types of nose surgery. This is due to the complexity of balancing the goals of rhinoplasty – creating a refined shape and function – while respecting and enhancing the patient’s ethnic features.
The cost of ethnic rhinoplasty is not necessarily more expensive than other types of rhinoplasty. The cost depends on various factors such as the complexity of the procedure, the expertise of the surgeon, and the geographic location of the practice.
Many Asians choose rhinoplasty to enhance the aesthetic appearance of their nose while preserving their ethnic features. They might wish to achieve a more defined or prominent nasal bridge, a narrower nose, or a larger nose that better balances their facial features.
Not taping the nose after rhinoplasty may lead to increased swelling and prolong the healing process. The tape helps to reduce swelling and helps the skin to adhere to the new shape of the nose. It is a common technique used in many rhinoplasty procedures to ensure optimal results.
Patients typically need to take 1-2 weeks off work or school following rhinoplasty. This time allows the body to heal and for any visible swelling or bruising to diminish.
Patients can usually return to most normal activities, including work or school, about two weeks after rhinoplasty. However, more strenuous activities and exercise should be avoided for at least 3-6 weeks to allow the body ample time to heal. It’s essential to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions for a successful recovery.
