Rhinoplasty as a Component of Facial Feminization and Beautification

Rhinoplasty is perhaps the most challenging and elegant procedure within all of plastic surgery. In this issue of JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery, Bellinga et al provide a general review of their approach to feminization rhinoplasty as it relates to facial feminization for transgender women. I find, however, that feminization rhinoplasty techniques are applicable to all women. In fact, I strongly believe that considering gender cues when performing rhinoplasty can provide a better result than going by typically published "standard" aesthetic measurements.
