There are several factors that can effect the cost of your rhinoplasty. The experience of the surgeon, the cost of the operating room and anesthesia fees, and also the geographic location you would like to have the rhinoplasty performed. Most importantly is that you find a surgeon with whom you are comfortable and can demonstrate experience with your particular type of rhinoplasty. Many surgeons offer financing options for their patients. Some financing options are more customer friendly than others.

Rhinoplasty prices vary greatly 
because the rhinoplasty procedure itself encompasses a wide range of 
techniques that can be performed to different extents.Therefore the cost
 range is pretty wide from $6000-$12,000. My recommendation is to first 
find qualified surgeons   that are board certified by the American Board
 of Plastic Surgery or the American Board of Otolaryngology. Find one or
 two surgeons you trust, then compare prices between them. Factors that 
influence the price include:
1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight 
stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctors office?
2. Type of Anesthesia -  IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a 
board certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used, or an 
RN?
    
 
3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best 
trained (and longest) would be a surgeon board  certified by the 
American Board of Plastic Surgery, but also consider American Board of 
Otolaryngology trained surgeons
    
 4. Length and Complexity of 
Surgery - Tip Rhinoplasty only or complete rhinoplasty, open or closed 
technique, deviated septum repair,or breathing problems corrected, , how
 long, ?etc

Pricing varies depending on the surgeon and city where they are. It can also depend on the type of rhinoplasty you want and the extent of correction required. In Toronto, Ontario, it ranges from $8000-$10000. There are financing options available, usually through a third party. We have one provider who offers payment plans from only a couple of hundred dollars per month, making the procedure more affordable to those who are on a fixed budget.

Adam Bryce Weinfeld, MD · Answer

the total cost for rhinoplasty is about $8000. the cost may vary depending on the projected time for the procedure. the fact that the procedure is an "ethnic" rhinoplasty should not have an influence on price.

The cost of ethnic  rhinoplasty does depend on where you are located.  The more rural, the less it is, and in the more urban areas you will find that the costs are higher.  While price is always a consideration, it is more important to check the surgeons qualifications, board status and experience.  Ethnic Rhinoplasty is a complex operation and you have to choose someone who is skilled over a good price.

	That being said, there are several financing agencies available that can help you with funding the operation.  Most surgeons offer this and each one works with different financing companies.  Best to choose your surgeon first and select the financing later.

Hello,
Cost depends on exactly what needs to be performed, and whether or not it is a revision.  Often times there are surgery loans that may be taken out through an outside establishment. Prices can range from $10,000-$20,000. Thank you, and best of luck.

Most offices offer forms of financing. However, you should look for an experienced surgeon woh does very natural ethnic rhinoplasty. That is more important than trying to shop price and having to do it over again.

Steven J. Pearlman, MD, FACS · Answer

Of course what a rhinoplasty costs is important since it is 100% an out of pocket expense. But first you should seek a rhinoplasty specialist so the surgery is done right. This is the nose you are going to have for the rest of your life.
As for financing, most cosmetic surgeons use financing plans, either through national programs or regional banks. Once you identify the best doctors to do your surgery you can inquire about what their financing resources are. As for cost, these vary by region. I know that RealSelf has average fees on this website.

Otto Joseph Placik, MD · Answer

Costs vary tremendously on the extent of the procedure.
Financing can be in-house or out sourced. The latter is more common and typically surgeons will list their participating plans on their websites. Finance terms can differ depending on the months pver which the payments are structured.
There are generally no discounts.
Costs can vary from 3-20,000.

Thank you for the question.In our practice, we use Care Credit as well as other companies; they have been used by our patients with no problems.  They do have different rates so please make sure you get all of the information you need prior to signing up with any financing company.Generally speaking, it is always in patients' best interests to achieve a certain degree of financial stability prior to undergoing elective surgery of any type. Patients should also keep in mind that additional surgery may be necessary in the short or long term, following the primary procedure that is being performed;  this additional surgery may be associated  out-of-pocket expenses. Again, best to achieve a physical, emotional, psychosocial, and financial “stable state” prior to considering elective plastic surgery. Best wishes.
