Remarkable Care, Exceptional Results
“Researching a plastic surgeon to perform rhinoplasty on an African American person is very complicated. I wanted a plastic surgeon who could change my wide, bulbous nose into something more suitable for my face without changing my cultural identity. Dr. Kulbersh did that for me. He addressed all of my questions and concerns. This was an incredible experience from start to finish; I would like to thank the staff for being so helpful and kind. I am so very happy with my new nose. Dr. Kulbersh is truly gifted. Many thanks!”

Your African American Rhinoplasty Experience
Consultation
The goal of every African American nose job at Carolina Facial Plastics is unique to each patient. Every patient will have different goals to be defined during an in-depth consultation with Dr. Kulbersh.
During this initial consultation, Dr. Kulbersh listens to your vision and expectations, carefully evaluates your nasal structure and facial structure, and crafts a personalized approach that respects the unique qualities of your African American nasal anatomy.
Procedure
When you arrive at Dr. Kulbersh’s Fairview Surgical Suites, his team administers anesthesia, so you will be asleep during the procedure. An African American nose job typically takes at least 2-4 hours. After your surgery is complete, Dr. Kulbersh’s team monitors you to ensure your safety and comfort. Whether you return home or recover in the exclusive Fairview Recovery Suites, Dr. Kulbersh and his team provide detailed aftercare instructions.
Results and Recovery
The initial recovery after African American rhinoplasty takes 1 week. After 1 week, the cast is removed and the nose will look improved but it will be swollen. It will look much better 3 months after surgery, but it will look best 12 months after surgery after full healing. Most patients return to their daily activities within 7 days of the procedure. The Carolina Facial Plastics team will schedule regular follow-ups to monitor and assess your progress.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty FAQ
How much does African American rhinoplasty cost in Charlotte, NC?
Most ethnic rhinoplasties, including an African American nose job, cost between $11,000 and $20,000. However, certain aspects of your surgery can influence the cost, including adding a nasal implant, addressing functional concerns, and the overall expectations of the surgery.
What are the possible complications of African American rhinoplasty?
Due to the unique characteristics of African American nasal structures, such as thicker skin, more fibrous soft tissue, and variations in cartilage and bone structure, specific considerations need to be made. Possible complications include swelling, bruising, bleeding, and scarring. Dr. Kulbersh’s experience helps to minimize these risks, ensuring a smoother recovery and beautiful results.
Does insurance ever cover African American rhinoplasty in Charlotte?
Insurance doesn’t usually cover African American rhinoplasties, as they are cosmetic procedures.
Will my nose look Caucasian after surgery?
No, Dr. Kulbersh knows the importance of preserving your ethnic identity and reshaping your nose to complement your face perfectly. He has a thorough understanding of the African American facial structure, nose types, and aesthetics, and can provide you with natural-looking results.
How can I prepare for an African American nose job?
Dr. Kulbersh advises against the use of specific medications and procedures (such as anticoagulants, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, dental procedures, etc.), emphasizes the importance of staying healthy, and suggests organizing care and transportation after the surgery in advance.
What happens if I have problems after my African American rhinoplasty if I live in another state?
If you live out of state, schedule a virtual appointment with Dr. Kulbersh. He may recommend seeking immediate treatment in your area or returning to Carolina Facial Plastics for a full assessment.
