Ethnic Rhinoplasty Boston & Worcester, MA

As the central focal point of a person’s face, the nose can draw a great deal of attention to itself when out of balance with the rest of the features. While in the past plastic surgeons tended to implement a cookie-cutter approach that Westernized each patient’s results, today, doctors understand the importance of customizing their procedures to help preserve and honor the client’s unique ethnic and cultural heritage.

Dr. Fechner in Boston and Worcester performs ethnic rhinoplasty for patients of many different backgrounds, refining the nasal tip, bridge, and nostrils while safekeeping idiosyncratic beauty.

What is ethnic rhinoplasty?

The shape of your nose is not only influenced by your genetic heritage but also by the environment in which you were born and raised, including its climate. However, regardless of one's background, dissatisfaction with nasal appearance can significantly impact self-confidence and overall quality of life.

Ethnic rhinoplasty is a cosmetic procedure designed to honor cultural diversity while addressing the patient's aesthetic desires. For example, it allows for the refinement of a dorsal hump without compromising the nose's ethnic identity. This delicate balance demands both precision and artistic skill, qualities that Dr. Fechner possesses. With his expertise, he will develop a personalized treatment approach that respects your heritage while enhancing your natural beauty and allure.
