The latest trends in Asian rhinoplasty

Abstract

Rhinoplasty in Asia is becoming increasingly widespread. When taking into consideration the anatomical differences between the features of Caucasian and Asian patients, it is unsurprising that knowledge gained from research on Caucasian rhinoplasty is not always applicable to Asian rhinoplasty. Furthermore, reviews aimed at describing the recent developments in Asian rhinoplasty are rare. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the latest trends in rhinoplasty for Asians by classifying it into three parts: methods, materials, and three-dimensional techniques, hopefully providing surgeons with references to aid in conducting rhinoplasty on Asians.
