Evaluation and Treatment of Nasal Valve Compromise in non-Caucasian Rhinoplasty

    Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

    Abstract

    The number of non-Caucasian patients with nasal valve compromise seeking functional rhinoplasty is projected to increase in tandem with an increasingly diverse population in the United States. Gaining a deeper appreciation for the variances in nasal morphology amongst different ethnicities will help rhinoplasty surgeons perform accurate preoperative evaluations, optimize functional and esthetic outcomes, and maintain ethnic congruence with surgery.
