Why is rhinoplasty different for Afro Americans? I mean what is the difference between rhinoplasty for Afro American and other people? I am considering one.
Well, as far as I know Afro-Americans frequently have a very flat dorsum associated with a wide, low poorly projecting tip and thick skin. So, surgery is directed to elevate the dorsum, narrow and project the tip and reduce the width of the ala and cartilage is used from the septum or the ear to build up the dorsum or project the tip.
