For many men, the nose is a defining feature, shaping how strength, confidence, and presence are perceived. Male ethnic rhinoplasty requires far more than technical execution alone. It demands cultural awareness, restraint, and a nuanced understanding of masculine facial balance.
At That Face in Chicago, Dr. Omotara Sulyman-Scott, a board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon and board-certified otolaryngologist, is known for her expertise in ethnic rhinoplasty and her ability to deliver natural, powerful results that respect both heritage and individuality. With advanced fellowship training and more than two decades of experience in healthcare, Dr. Sulyman-Scott approaches male rhinoplasty as a precise, anatomy-driven art grounded in proportion, structure, and identity.
Read on to discover how male ethnic rhinoplasty can refine shape while preserving strength.
Understanding Masculinity in Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Male rhinoplasty differs fundamentally from female nasal surgery, particularly when ethnic features are involved. The objective is not softness or over-refinement. Instead, the focus is on maintaining strong structure, projection, and definition while addressing concerns that disrupt facial harmony.
For men of African, Middle Eastern, Asian, Latino, or mixed heritage, this often includes refining nasal width, enhancing bridge definition, improving tip shape, or correcting asymmetry—without erasing culturally distinctive features.
At That Face, every male ethnic rhinoplasty is planned with careful attention to the full facial framework. Dr. Sulyman-Scott evaluates the nose in relationship to the jawline, brow, lips, and midface, ensuring the final result reinforces masculinity and balance rather than diminishing them.
Why Ethnic Considerations Matter
Ethnic rhinoplasty is never a standardized procedure. Variations in skin thickness, cartilage strength, and bone structure significantly influence both surgical technique and long-term outcomes. When these anatomical factors are overlooked, patients may experience results that appear unnatural or require complex revision.
Dr. Sulyman-Scott’s background in advanced facial surgery allows her to adapt techniques that support the nose structurally while achieving subtle refinement. Her approach emphasizes durability, proportion, and cultural integrity, avoiding the overly narrow or westernized appearance that many male patients seek to avoid.
Common Goals in Male Ethnic Rhinoplasty
While each surgical plan is fully individualized, male patients often pursue rhinoplasty to address concerns that affect confidence or facial symmetry:
- Bridge refinement: Smoothing a dorsal hump or enhancing definition while maintaining a strong, masculine profile.
- Width reduction: Narrowing the nasal bridge or nostrils in a controlled way that preserves ethnic proportions.
- Tip refinement: Improving shape or projection without creating an upturned or delicate appearance.
- Asymmetry correction: Addressing crookedness related to genetics or prior injury.
- Functional improvement: Enhancing airflow and breathing when internal structural issues are present.
Each adjustment is approached conservatively, ensuring the nose remains natural, masculine, and fully integrated with the rest of the face.
Precision, Technique, and Long-Term Results
Male ethnic rhinoplasty often requires advanced structural techniques, particularly when working with thicker skin or weaker cartilage support. Dr. Sulyman-Scott is trained in both open and closed rhinoplasty approaches, allowing her to select the technique that provides the most appropriate access and control based on the patient’s anatomy and goals.
Meticulous planning and surgical execution help minimize the risk of revision while producing results that age well and remain consistent with the patient’s natural features.
