A person’s cultural identity may be defined by many things, including physical appearance. Certain features and characteristics are more generally associated with certain cultures, which can cause some concern for patients who want to maintain their cultural identity while enjoying the benefits of nose surgery. Since rhinoplasty specialist Dr. Edwin Williams approaches each patient as an individual, he can work with any man or woman seeking to re-shape or re-size their nose while remaining sensitive to aesthetics that contribute to their cultural identity. The goal of any nose surgery—whether ethnic rhinoplasty or not—is to not just change the nose itself, but to create a harmonious look overall, complementing the other facial features surrounding it.
