How much will it cost to have my nose straightened, will my eyes be black and blue? If so for how long? (photos)

When your nose is crooked because of trauma, you usually have a great chance of getting it nice and straight. It is important to see a rhinoplasty specialist when doing this so that the inside can be fixed properly at the same time as the outside. The cost will vary depending on where you go, but will average around $6000.

Rhinoplasty to straighten a crooked nose involves a septoplasty, repositioning of the upper lateral cartilages, fracturing the bones and repositioning these as well.  You may suffer from bruising in the cheek area.  Costs range from $5k - $7k.  This procedure should also improve your breathing.  You can also undergo some tip work if desired to give you an optimal result.  

I think you'd be a great candidate for rhinoplasty for the concerns you want to have addressed. You will be a little black and blue around the eyes for about 7 days. The cost varies in all regions of the country, and even within New Jersey. In general the cost is between 4-8k for surgeons fees. Sometimes insurance can cover some of the other work that might need to be done. Facility and anesthesia fees will depend on the functional (breathing / sinus) issues and insurance coverage. Facility and anesthesia fees are dependent on time used for the cosmetic portion.  Good luck! 

Dear itslodoeCost of rhinoplasty varies by region.It routinely takes 3-4 weeks to recover from a rhinoplasty and you are likely to have bruising around your eyes for 7-10 days. Look for an expereinced surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic surgery (or Facial Plastics). Consider more than one consultation to get comprehensive information and make a good decision.

fee range from $5,000 to $8,500. Eyes ecchymosis for up to 3 weeks or less. Seek in person opinions... 

Nasal injury during childhood is more likely to result in a deviated septum or deviated nose, as the nose can then grow crookedly. Rhinoplasty cost varies base on complexity, geographic region, and surgeon. Typical rhinoplasty costs varies from approximately $6000 to $10,000. Your nose can be made straighter and breathing improved. You should expect to have some degree of "black and blue", especially since osteotomy (bone reshaping) is required, in addition to cartilage reshaping. Most bruising within a week or so, while swelling will takes several weeks/months to gradually resolve. If you haven't already, then speak with a plastic surgeon to review options with you.Best,Dr. Chaboki

I think that an exam in person is essential to evaluate a crooked nose. I tell patients that the nose can be straightened but it may not become perfectly straight.

Costs vary based upon the complexity of the surgery, the geographical location of the surgeon and the experience of the surgeon. In your case you are likely to need fracturing of the nasal bones to properly re-position them as well as a septoplasty, to straighten the nasal septum. An exam can help to determine how much the nasal bones and septum are contributing to the deviation. Fracturing of the nasal bones will typically lead to a varying degree of bruising, which will usually resolve by 1-2 weeks following surgery. You should choose a surgeon with experience in nasal surgery and you will most likely be rewarded by a nice improvement in your appearance.  Best of Luck     Dr Harrell

the prices vary. the exam will really help, with the extent of the surgery. in your photo, you look that you have a curve in the middle one third of your nose. also, if you have other areas of your nose that you want improved, that will also affect the price. usually the nasal surgery would range from 3000 to 5000, plus OR charges and anesthesia.
