I went for a consultation in Atlanta, GA for an alar base reduction. The doctor mentioned weirs, sills and coapt suture. I was quoted $4000 just for the surgery, not including any other fees like anesthesia. I have found that the typical price for this type of procedure is anywhere between $2000 - $3000 (from research and other doctors). The doctor I saw is triple board certified in plastic, reconstructive and laser surgery.....if that makes a difference. Is this price unreasonably high?

Answer: Alar Base resection and Cost Cost for any surgical procedure vary from doctor to doctor. It sounds like you may not feel comfortable with the surgeon. I would suggest having a few more consultations before you proceed. In addition to cost there may be variations in technique.

Answer: Is $4000 too high for an alar base reduction surgery with a triple board certified plastic surgeon? The fees for Cosmetic Surgery vary from Region to region, Practice to Practice, experience of a Surgeon, etc.. No, $4000 is not to high at all.. Keep in mind the costs include surgical fee, facility fee, Anesthesia provider fee.. Remember that a Board Certified PS has 15 years or more of training and hopefully additional years of experience. But changing the Alar Base may require other changes to create the bets looking nose. The cost of course will go up
