How Much Would It Cost to Narrow and Augment Bridge and Reduce Nostrils?

I had a nose infection when I was younger, so then I had 3 surgeries on my nose, twice to get puss drained, and the third to make it look better. I hate my nose and would like to get rhinoplasty when I'm 18. My nose is kind of flat, and there is basically no cartilage in the middle of my nose. It is also kind of thick and wide. How much would it be to narrow and augment the bridge, and get my nostril size reduced, and shrink my nose in general? preferably under 10k$ :(

How much for Asian Rhinoplasty?

I agree with my colleagues that the costs for augmenting the nasal bridge (I prefer using a straight silastic implant) and the nasal tip (I prefer a conchal ear cartilage graft) with an experienced Rhinoplasty surgeon will likely cost between $7,000 to $15,000 but be closer to $10,000 or more, IMHO. Rhinoplasty costs are determined by the complexity of the Rhinoplasty, the reputation and experience of the Rhinoplasty Surgeon and in some measure by the geographical... more

Cost of surgery

You certainly can have rhinoplasty to reshape your nose. If your infections left you with a saddle and no septal cartilage then you might need a rib graft (I would avoid synthetic implants with your history) and this will raise the cost above a routine rhinoplasty. Find a surgeon with experience in this type of "reconstructive" rhinoplasty. It may cost a little more but will be well worth it in the end. The result is going to be out there for everyone to see forever. more

Asian Rhinoplasty

Hi, Asian rhinoplasty is much like like African American rhinoplasty. Low bridge, wide nostrils and bulbous tip is a common complaint in Ethnic patients. You will probably pay between 6500 to 15,000 depending on your geographic location. Below is a website with many ethnic before and afters. Best, Dr.S.

Nose infection

If you truely have no cartilage in the mid-nose, then you have a saddle nose deformity. Allografts or rib maybe needed for repair. Taking rib will raise the cost. If this is not needed then your area rhinoplasty fees should be close

Cost of Asian Rhinoplasty

Asian rhinoplasty or ethnic rhinoplasty procedures are more complex. This is the center of your face we are talking about. First off, it is important not to bargain shop for something as important as your facial balance and beauty. Procedures that you would require can run anywhere from 7000 to 15000 depending on what your surgeon charges, his level of expertise, how much time he spends refining your nosyrils, shaping your tip and augmenting your bridge. The least expensive route tends... more
