The use of augmentation rhinoplasty techniques for the correction of the non-caucasian nose

To refine, enlarge, and enhance the mestizo nose, it is necessary to augment the structural support. The authors report on a series of more than 3000 patients over the last 20 years, exploring the possibilities of autogenous graft for augmentation of the nose. Their series showed minimal resorption of the bone grafts, no loss of volume of the cartilage grafts, and satisfactory long-term results.
