Abstract
Non-Caucasian patients seeking rhinoplasty often have similar goals as their Caucasian counterparts. However, surgeon sensitivity to ethnic variations and patient desires are crucial to a successful outcome. This article presents some of the commonly encountered issues seen in non-Caucasian rhinoplasty, including minimal modification, augmentation materials, and complications with infected and extruded implants.
