What Is Asian Rhinoplasty?
While Asian rhinoplasty and traditional rhinoplasty are surgical procedures designed to reshape the nose and can address functional concerns, they are typically performed differently in approach and focus. Asian rhinoplasty prioritizes the patient’s cultural facial features and prioritizes preserving and respecting their unique ethnic appearance rather than following generalized aesthetic principles.
As a highly customizable procedure, Asian rhinoplasty emphasizes results that suit each individual’s face and align with their ethnic background. Dr. Mang incorporates his ethnic background to ensure these specific considerations are achieved, providing a culturally sensitive approach to rhinoplasty.
Whether you want minor enhancements or more significant changes, Asian rhinoplasty delivers a transformative experience that aligns with your personal aesthetic goals and respects your cultural beauty standards. Asian rhinoplasty can address many aesthetic and functional concerns while preserving your facial features.

Preparing for Your Asian Rhinoplasty
Before your Atlanta Asian rhinoplasty surgery, it’s essential to be in good overall health. While Dr. Mang will customize all rhinoplasty treatments for each patient, here is some general information to help you prepare.
Follow Pre-Operative Instructions
Dr. Mang will provide pre-operative instructions, which may include dietary restrictions, medication adjustments, and guidelines on avoiding alcohol and smoking. Inform Dr. Mang of all medications and supplements you take, including over-the-counter medications.
Arrange Transportation
As you will be unable to drive after your Asian rhinoplasty, arrange for a trusted friend or family member to take you to and from the surgical facility.
Prepare Your Home
Create a comfortable area at home where you can recover after surgery. Ensure you have necessities, such as medications, ice packs, gauze, snacks, entertainment, and comfortable clothing easily accessible.
Dress Appropriately
Wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing that is easy to put on and take off. Be sure to take off all jewelry and remove nail polish and makeup.
Practice Relaxation Techniques
Engaging in relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or visualization, can help manage pre-surgery anxiety. Staying calm can positively influence your experience.
Schedule Post-Operative Appointments
Confirm your follow-up appointments and ensure you have a clear understanding of what to expect during recovery.
Limit Activities Before Surgery
The day before surgery, try to take it easy. Avoid strenuous activities and get a good night’s sleep to ensure you’re well-rested.
Maintain a Positive Mindset
Keep your focus centered on the benefits of your procedure and the positive outcome you hope to achieve. Surround yourself with supportive friends or family.
What Can I Expect During an Asian Rhinoplasty Procedure in Atlanta, GA?
By focusing on each patient as a whole, Dr. Mang delivers outstanding care to achieve remarkable results. As such, he personalizes each Asian rhinoplasty to preserve each patient’s unique cultural appearance while addressing their functional or aesthetic concerns. Before your procedure, you’ll meet with Dr. Mang and your anesthesia provider. Dr. Mang will review the details of your procedure and answer any last questions you have.
After you are safely sedated, Dr. Mang will begin your highly customized Asian rhinoplasty by creating the appropriate incisions. From these incisions, Dr. Mang will address the underlying structures of the nose to improve its function or enhance its appearance.
For patients with a small amount of cartilage on their nose, Dr. Mang may harvest it from the rib or ear to strengthen or rebuild the nose to the desired shape. Cartilage grafts can also improve the bridge or the nasal tip. For patients with wide nasal bases, Dr. Mang will make a small incision concealed by the alar groove between the nose and cheek to reduce the base of the nose.
After achieving the desired changes to the nasal structures, Dr. Mang will drape the skin over the nasal framework, close the incisions, and then add splints and bandages to cover the nose. Depending on the characteristics of your procedural plan, Asian rhinoplasty procedures typically take one to two hours.
Asian Rhinoplasty Aftercare
As Asian rhinoplasty is performed as an outpatient procedure, you will need to arrange for someone to drive you home and assist you for 24 to 48 hours. Following your Asian rhinoplasty, you may experience discomfort or pressure for 7 to 10 days. You will need to wear internal or external splints for a week to support the new contours and minimize swelling. These splints will be removed at your follow-up appointment with Dr. Mang.
As bruising and swelling are common effects after Asian rhinoplasty, it’s important to keep your head elevated, avoid strenuous activities like exercising, and avoid bending or lifting to minimize swelling. Residual swelling may last up to 4 months.
Plan to take 1 to 2 weeks off from work. Those with physically strenuous jobs may need 4 to 6 weeks off. For the first few weeks, you will be limited to light activities.
How Soon Will I See Results from My Asian Rhinoplasty?
Asian rhinoplasty recovery greatly depends on the characteristics and extent of your individual procedure. It’s important to expect swelling that may last up to 4 months but will subside gradually. Full results may take up to a year, but you’ll see gradual changes and enhancements to improve your facial balance as your nose heals.
With thorough follow-up care, the results from Asian rhinoplasty will permanently enhance the appearance of your nose. To ensure your results, follow Dr. Mang’s post-op instructions regarding strenuous activities, showering, blowing your nose, or putting other pressure on your nose.

Asian Rhinoplasty in Atlanta, GA
Is Asian Rhinoplasty Permanent?
As with any rhinoplasty procedure, after the healing process is complete, the work done will permanently integrate with your nose.
How Is Asian Rhinoplasty Different from Other Types of Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty for Caucasians typically has the opposite goal of Asian rhinoplasty. For Caucasians, the procedure is usually to reduce a nose that is considered too large. Asian rhinoplasty, on the other hand, is meant to enhance the size and shape of the nose. Some techniques that work well for Western noses don’t work for Asian noses and may lead to complications. Also, Asian noses don’t have the same amount of cartilage so some cartilage may be harvested from the ribs or ears. That’s why Dr. Mang uses specialized techniques and an artist’s eye that seamlessly combines Asian physiology and beauty aesthetics to create graceful, natural-looking results.
Is Asian Rhinoplasty Painful?
The first two days after any rhinoplasty procedure can be the most difficult with some patients experiencing mild discomfort and pain. Dr. Mang may prescribe pain medications, however, many patients will do just fine with OTC pain relievers. Some common discomfort experienced post-rhinoplasty can include:
- Bruising
- Headaches
- Swelling or “puffiness”
- Nosebleeds
How Long Does Asian Rhinoplasty Take to Heal?
The initial recovery phase after an Asian rhinoplasty procedure is normally 1 – 2 weeks. After that time, you will be able to begin resuming your daily routine. However, full recovery can take as long as nine months to a year or longer to achieve complete healing.
Will My Insurance Cover Functional Nose Surgery?
Although Asian rhinoplasty to improve your appearance is not covered by insurance, functional rhinoplasty that is medically necessary to improve your breathing may be covered by insurance. If you are considering using your insurance, please tell Dr. Mang during your consultation. We can help you submit any needed information and paperwork to your insurance to process your claim.
Are There Nonsurgical Options to Change My Nose?
To smooth lumps and bumps on your nose, a wrinkle filler (like Juvéderm or Restylane) may be an option. A filler can temporarily correct minor imperfections on your nose, which may help you decide if you want to proceed with rhinoplasty. Nose surgery is better for larger changes, long-lasting results, and to adjust the internal structure of the nose for better function. During your consultation, Dr. Mang can tell you more about nonsurgical nose reshaping.
What Are the Goals of Asian Rhinoplasty?
The primary goals of Asian rhinoplasty are to enhance the nasal bridge, refine the tip, and achieve a balanced profile while maintaining a natural look that complements the patient’s facial structure. Patients often seek subtle improvements, such as a higher, more defined bridge, a more refined nasal tip, or improved nostril shape, without losing their ethnic identity.
Will Asian Rhinoplasty Change My Ethnic Appearance?
No, the goal of Asian rhinoplasty is to enhance your natural features while preserving your ethnic identity. The procedure is designed to make subtle improvements that enhance the overall harmony of the face without drastically altering your appearance. Our team at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery is committed to delivering results that respect and enhance your unique ethnic features.
