This article examines the surgical techniques of rhinoplasty in relation to aesthetic considerations of various ethnic groups. Rhinoplasty in general is challenging, particularly in the ethnic population. When considering rhinoplasty in ethnic patients one must determine their aesthetic goals, which in many cases might deviate from the so-called norm of the "North European nose." An experienced rhinoplastic surgeon should be able to navigate his or her way through the nuances of the various ethnic subsets. Keeping this in mind and following the established tenets in rhinoplasty, one can expect a pleasing and congruous nose without radically violating ethnicity.

Understanding the underlying epistemologies of Indigenous medicine is a prerequisite for this purpose.
