Advancements in Nasal Tip Rhinoplasty in East Asia: From Adoption of Western Techniques to Indigenous Innovation

Jia Liu, Jiao Wei, Chuanchang Dai, Bao‐Fu Yu · 2026 · Journal of Craniofacial Surgery

Summary. This paper traces how East Asian nasal tip rhinoplasty evolved from copying Western surgical techniques to developing region-specific innovations. The authors document three phases: initial Western technique adoption, refinement adapted to East Asian anatomy, and current indigenous innovation. They highlight locally developed methods like Dai exogenous extension stents and show how aesthetic standards shifted from imitating Western ideals to establishing culturally distinct beauty standards grounded in anatomical evidence.
