How Is African American Rhinoplasty Different?

African American patients often have unique characteristics when it comes to nose structure, including:

Wider nose
Shorter nose
More prominent columella (the cartilage strip between the nostrils)

A unique angle between the nose and lip structure
Thicker skin and tissue at the nose and face

Wider nasal tip
Wider and longer nostrils

In African American rhinoplasty, the goal is not to create a "one-size-fits-all" nose but rather to enhance and define the nose in a way that complements the rest of your features. Dr. Leong’s expertise allows him to create subtle changes that enhance your facial balance without compromising the natural beauty of your heritage.

His approach focuses on respecting your natural features while improving overall facial harmony.

The Creation of Facial Balance: Dr. Leong's Approach

Dr. Leong’s advanced techniques focus on creating a harmonious look that complements your other features.
