Las Vegas Asian Rhinoplasty

For many patients of Asian descent, the nose plays a key role in achieving facial harmony. At Cara Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, Asian rhinoplasty is performed with exceptional care and cultural sensitivity by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Kahng.

What Makes Asian Rhinoplasty Unique?

Unlike traditional Western rhinoplasty, Asian rhinoplasty typically involves augmentation rather than reduction. Many Asian patients are looking to elevate a low nasal bridge, define a rounded tip, or create a more balanced relationship between the nose and surrounding facial features. Common anatomical characteristics addressed in Asian rhinoplasty include:

A low or flat nasal bridge
A bulbous or under-projected tip
Thicker skin and softer cartilage
A wide nasal base or flared nostrils

Dr. Kahng’s approach is highly individualized, with an emphasis on subtle, harmonious enhancements that maintain ethnic integrity and improve overall proportion.

What Concerns Can Asian Rhinoplasty Address?

At our Las Vegas practice, Asian rhinoplasty is customized to:

Build up the nasal bridge with grafts or implants
Reshape and project the tip for better definition
Narrow the nostrils for improved contour
Balance the nose with other features, including the eyes and cheekbones
Correct structural issues such as a deviated septum or breathing challenges

Each surgical plan is designed around your goals, facial anatomy, and long-term vision for natural, lasting beauty.

Procedure Overview

Asian rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia at our AAAASF-accredited Las Vegas surgical center. The technique used—open or closed rhinoplasty—will depend on the extent of your reshaping needs:

Open Rhinoplasty

Involves a small incision across the columella (the skin between the nostrils), offering maximum visibility and precision for detailed adjustments.

Closed Rhinoplasty

All incisions are hidden within the nostrils, ideal for minor modifications and faster healing.

Cartilage grafts (from the septum, ear, or rib) or synthetic implants may be used to support the bridge and tip. Dr. Kahng uses advanced techniques to sculpt a nose that’s proportionate, durable, and aesthetically balanced.

What to Expect During Recovery

Most patients in Las Vegas find rhinoplasty recovery to be very manageable. Here's what to expect:

7–10 days of initial swelling and bruising
Wearing a nasal splint for the first week
Avoiding glasses, contact sports, and strenuous activities for several weeks
Elevating the head during sleep and avoiding nose pressure

Dr. Kahng and his team will monitor your progress closely and provide detailed aftercare guidelines to support proper healing and optimal outcomes.

Long-Term Results

Final results from Asian rhinoplasty develop gradually over 6 to 12 months, as residual swelling resolves and the nasal contour refines. Once healed, you can expect:

A more defined nasal bridge and tip
Better balance between the nose and facial features
A natural look that enhances your appearance without altering your cultural identity
Greater confidence in both profile and frontal views

Revision Asian Rhinoplasty

If you’ve had a previous nose procedure that didn’t meet your expectations, Dr. Kahng offers revision Asian rhinoplasty to address:

Implant shifting or irregularities
Asymmetry or tip collapse
Breathing issues or internal damage
Over-reduction or unnatural results

Revision rhinoplasty is more complex and demands technical skill and artistic judgment—both of which Dr. Kahng is known for across the region.
