What is the Most Cost-effective Way to Make a Nose Smaller?
I feel that my nose is proportionally very large. What procedure would you suggest as the most cost effective way of making my nose "smaller" either narrowing my nose, or shaving off the bump or both? Thank you!

Surgery to make the nose smaller
The projection of the nose is brought back by multiple different techniques. These include shaving down the bone and cartilage of the dorsal bridge and septum with some tip setback techniques. The overall effect is to decrease the nasal length and projection. Once a moderate amount of hump is removed from the nasal bridge, the sidewalls will have to be narrowed otherwise a square top open roof deformity will result. This is a full rhinoplasty procedure and the average cost in the Seattle...

Rhinoplasty Cost
I understand your concern regarding the proportion of your nose to the rest of your face and the cost associated with obtaining a result that will achieve what you desire. That being said in order to get the best result there is rarely ever going to be a "cost-effective" treatment or a shortcut that will cost less than what is appropriate for that result. This does not mean that you have to pay an exorbitantly high amount for your surgery to get the best result...

Cost Effective Nasal Surgery for Rhinoplasty
The most cost effective nasal surgery, both in terms of financial, recovery, and time costs, is to simulate nasal surgery on the computer with your plastic surgeon.
It is relatively easy to simulate plastic surgery on the computer. Simple digital imaging software can provide before and after pictures of plastic surgery. Some surgeons simulate surgery with patients in-person, while some plastic surgeons recommend a followup appointment to review computer imaging.

Reduction rhinoplasty to make the nose appear smaller
If you have a prominent hump or bump which is making your nose appear larger than you would like, taking that down to create a straighter profile for a man or a slight concavity is typically what most rhinoplasty experts agree makes the nose appear smaller. Typically, the nose will have to be narrowed some at the same time or you will end up with a "flat top" or open roof appearance to the bridge of the nose so both procedures are done to the nose at the same time. In addition,...

Nasal surgery is not just a shave here, narrow there!
Nasal surgery - rhinoplasty - is one of the most complex and often poorly performed surgeries in plastic surgery. The entire nasal structure must be put in proportion or you will get a very weird looking nose that doesn't fit your face. Occasionally a patient may need just a tip rhinoplasty but these are few and far between. If you have not been on a consultation I would suggest going to really understand what is involved in rhinoplasty and possibly have the doctor...
