Revision Rhinoplasty: Q&A

How Much Does Revision Rhinoplasty Cost?

I am from Phoenix, AZ. How much should a revision rhinoplasty with little bone trimming, and some cartilage removal / restructuring cost in US$ terms? I am a male. While I am quite happy with my nose, I do have some extra cartilage on the left side of my nose more than my right. While I have lived with it all these years, I am contemplating rhinoplasty as I have time on my side for recovery. I hope not to head again for any corrective surgery. It almost seems like if that little extra cartilage can be removed from left side of my nose, I would be just fine. I am quite fine with the tip of my nose.

Revising the nose is a generic term that can mean many different things, from a minor revision of an asymmetry of cartilage to totally redoing the entire nose. Your request sounds relatively simple and would not require an extensive surgical or recovery time. The cost would depend on the amount and difficulty of the procedure and could vary from $4-10,000.

Revision cost

Hello, There is not a lot of difference in price between a rhinoplasty and a revision rhiniplasty of many of the same steps are taken. If cartilage needs to be removed or bone shaved down the revision surgery would be considered a formal procedure and the price would be comparable to the full rhinoplasty procedure. My average rhinoplasty procedure is about 8-9K and revisions may be 1-2K less than that. All the best, Dr Repta

Cost for Revision Rhinoplasty

Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to give an accurate cost for revision rhinoplasty. The fee varies enormously depending upon where you live, the experience of the surgeon, and the cost of the operating room facility. If it is performed in the physician's office as an outpatient ambulatory setting, it is usually less expensive. Certainly, the cost of surgery in Los Angeles or New York would be more expensive than surgery in Orlando.
