For a facial plastic surgeon to achieve a harmonious relationship between the face and nose, it is essential to consider each patient's ethnicity and gender identity. Nasal anatomy varies significantly across different ethnic groups, affecting proportion, thickness, size, and resilience. Using Caucasian rhinoplasty guidelines for Hispanic, Middle Eastern, Black, and Asian patients can lead to adverse outcomes and increased revision surgeries. This textbook, edited by renowned facial plastic surgeons, addresses this gap in literature by providing comprehensive coverage of non-Caucasian nasal anatomy and tailored rhinoplasty approaches. It consists of 39 chapters organized into five sections: Principles, Anatomical Considerations, Primary Rhinoplasty, Secondary Rhinoplasty, and Special Considerations. Seventeen chapters focus on specific anatomical and surgical techniques for various ethnic groups, with expert commentary throughout. The text also discusses preservation rhinoplasty, fillers for nonsurgical and revision procedures, psychosocial factors in patients, and the influence of marketing and social media. Insights on potential pitfalls and strategies to avoid complications are shared. Key highlights include contributions from global experts, analysis of ethnic variations, instructional videos, and high-quality case studies, making this a vital resource for improving all phases of rhinoplasty for diverse patient populations
