asked 3 years ago by unevennostrils in los angeles, ca
Latest answer by Richard W. Fleming, MD
Question viewed 646 times
Tags: nostrils

I had a nostril reduction and I had Radiesse at the time. Now, the Radiesse has disappeared, and my nostrils look more uneven. The right side is a lot bigger. How much will it cost to remove a wedge on one side only? Can I get a quote for a doctor with local anesthesia? I am in South California. Thank you.

One side of the nasal base can be changed under local anesthesia. Without pictures it is impossible to estimate the cost. I recommend waItiing 12-18 months after the original procedure to ensure no residual Radiesse is present

Approximately $1,000

A unilateral alarplasty for a nose would cost approximately $1,000. It is important to know that the Radiesse has completely disappeared, and you probably should wait at least a year or two to make sure that indeed all the Radiesse has disappeared before proceeding with any elective surgery on the nose.

Pictures needed

It is not really possible to answer your question without more details. Post a photograph and perhaps you can obtain a reasonable response. Post a close up frontal, base, and side view of your nose.
