Facial structure, nasal shape, and aesthetic nasal preferences vary broadly among patients of African descent who seek rhinoplasty. This variation reflects the broad diversity in this ethnic group and is highlighted by lapses in computer vision algorithms in accurately recognizing black faces. Across ethnicities, patients who seek rhinoplasty have similar goals: a reshaped nose that fits their facial features and enhances their facial beauty. Among patients of African descent, there is a particularly strong desire for maintaining nasal features that are ethnically sensitive and culturally congruent. This article discusses the nuances of managing the lower third of the African nose.
寻求隆鼻手术的非洲裔患者的面部结构、鼻形和美学鼻偏好差异很大。这种差异反映了该种族群体的广泛多样性，并且通过计算机视觉算法在准确识别黑人面部方面的失误而凸显出来。在不同种族中，寻求隆鼻手术的患者有相似的目标：一个与他们的面部特征相匹配并提升面部美感的重塑鼻子。在非洲裔患者中，尤其强烈地希望保留具有种族敏感性和文化一致性的鼻部特征。本文讨论了处理非洲鼻下部三分之一的细微差别。
