Is 4500 Dollars Enough for a Nose Job?

Question

I've been thinking about getting this done for a LONG time because I've always hated my nose but i don't know if I'm willing to spend more than 4000-4500 to get it done because there aren't even any guarantees that i will like results. what if i hate it more after?

Sam Rizk, MD · Answer

Though there is no exact reasonable cost for a
nose job, this assessment seems a bit on the unrealistic side of the spectrum.
The cost of surgery is not just surgeon’s compensation; the cost also includes
fees associated with anesthesia and the facility in which the surgery is
performed. My best advice would be to consult a couple other surgeons to get a
more informed idea about the cost of a rhinoplasty in the geographic location
in which you live.

Dear DiamondDogs1974,

	
		Although price is a consideration when contemplating a rhinoplasty, it should NOT be the deciding factor
	
		The most important factor is the surgeon who is capable to meet your goals
	
		If you need to wait to save up for a surgeon that you like, then you should wait, or look into financing
	
		This is a permanent change to a feature that is in the middle of your face, you have to be careful who you choose for the job
	
		If you think a primary is expensive, revisions can run 50% more expensive and are usually done by more experienced surgeons; it is something you want to avoid


	Best regards,

There is a wide range of rhinoplasty costs depending upon the city in which you live and the surgeon you choose. With that said, $4500 is a relatively low cost for a surgeon's fee, facility charge and anesthesia cost. The best place to start would be to consult with a few rhinoplasty experts to determine whether you like and trust them and whether their costs are within your budget. Unfortunately, most rhinoplasty experts are likely to charge 50-100% more than what you're looking to spend. I hope this information is helpful.

No sure I understand your question but research for an experienced plastic surgeon in your area.  At the time of your consultation a cost estimate will be presented.

The fee for rhinoplasty will vary from region to region. It may vary from $5-25,000 depending upon who you go to and where they practice and the extent of surgery that is necessary.  Good luck.
