i am half japanese & half caucasian but have a typically asian nose. my first surgery was at age 17 & of course he did a poor job since he was not used to my type of nose. nevertheless, it was an improvement over my former nose so i lived with it for over 10 years! i happened to be consulting with dr. richard ellenbogen regarding breast implants & since he specializes in revision breast & nose surgery he was able to show me very quickly how my nose could be improved. i was somewhat wary but he was so friendly and had 26 years of expertise that i just put himself in his capable hands & had both my nose & breasts done at the same time. he is in the los angeles area where there are many of us asians so you should definately check him out. i'm very pleased with the results - it looks very natural & is organic to my face. i was afraid that he was going to make my nose to small or caucasian but it really suits me well. you should note however that most asians do require an implant for our bridge due to our particular bone structure. he wanted to use cartlidge from the ear but due to the earlier surgery there wasn't enough left over. needless to say i am very happy with the results!

I have been visiting www.nose.co.krfor along time, check out some of his results he seems to have listed every single surgery on his site as he updates every 2 days which suggests he is doing alot of surgery some of his surgical results are truly amazing hes based in korea and has very good prices compared to western surgeons |

Thanks all for your help! I am glad that you are happy with the job Dr Rick E did for you, but I am in NYC, and was looking for a doc in the area whom someone could recommend....
