How Much Does Dorsal Hump Removal Cost?

Many patients come in for consultations requesting just a hump removal. This is sometimes the case. More often, reducing just a hump can throw a nose out of balance. A qualified rhinoplasty expert can discuss the options in rhinoplasty with you. I like to use computer imaging to demonstrate what hump removal alone can achieve vs. more a more complete rhinoplasty. This is the nose you want to have for the rest of your life, price should be a secondary consideration.

Hello,Unfortunately I cannot answer this question directly. Many factors influence the price of the rhinoplasty like location of the doctor, if the doctor is specialized, revision or primary rhinoplasty, what specific procedures are being done to the nose etc. An average rhinoplasty cost in my office ranges from $8,000 to $15,000. Plastic surgeons want you to shop for a doctor who is going to have the same aesthetic eye as you. Every nose is different, and every rhinoplasty is different. You should look for a plastic surgeon who is an artist and should be a board certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty as 100% of their practice. All the best, Deepak Dugar, MDScarless Rhinoplasty ExpertBeverly Hills, CA 90210

Removing a dorsal hump may disrupt the ligaments fixating the bottom of your bridge to your nasal tip, and if this is not addressed with tip support during rhinoplasty surgery, tip droopiness may occur postoperatively. Estimating a cost of hump removal may be a that of a rhinoplasty fee. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Pricing varies depending on the surgeon and city where they are. It can also depend on the extent of correction required. In Toronto, Ontario, it ranges from $8000-$10000.

Each individual is different. Some folks only need a little surgery, like taking down the hump. One may need cartilage trim. One may need in-fracturing. One may also want to reduce the projection of the nose. Sometimes operating on one part of the nose may effect another part. It is best to see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. Visit with a few of them. Take a look at the before/after photos. Ask your questions. Together, you should be able to garner a plan to achieve your goals. The cost may depend on many factors, including the complexity of your nose, time spent in the OR, the city that you live in.

                  Rhinoplasty
is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic surgery procedures. Prices for
this procedure vary widely and depend on several variables. It’s important to
make sure that your fee quote includes the surgeon’s fee, facility fee,
anesthesia charges and pre and post-operative care. These components may vary
widely depending on the surgeons practice.

                  Generally,
surgeons who operate in dedicated outpatient cosmetic surgery facilities are
able to offer lower facility fees than those who operate in hospital based
practices. Anesthesia fees can vary and this may be related to the use of a
nurse anesthetist verses a physician anesthesiologist.

                  Finally,
the physician’s fee may vary depending on regional differences and local
competition. It’s also important to understand the surgeon’s revisional surgery
policies. Hopefully this won’t be necessary, but revisions occur for a
multitude of reasons. When all of these variables are considered, fees in the
Midwestern United States vary from $4,000 to $7,000. It’s important to remember
that price is an important part of your decision, but
it’s not the only consideration. Make sure your surgeon is board certified and
has a good reputation and experience in performing rhinoplasty. 

Once the hump is removed the nose may need to be fractured to create a normal bridge. Also, you may need other parts done once this is done to be balanced. Cost varies. Choose an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon to get the best result and don't shop price.

This is difficult to say as it depends on the surgeon you see and the area you are in.  It also depends on what needs to be done and how much work it takes.
Rhinoplasty is a procedure that I would focus on who would be the best to do my surgery not who would be the cheapest.  Having said that, I would have to expand and state that any cosmetic procedure should be looked at this way.

A limited rhinoplasty can be anywhere from about $1500 to $3000 in our area, depending upon how much work is done, whether it is an isolated hump requiring osteotomies to narrow the nose after taking the hump down, and whether other work on the nose is required it could be more. This is only an approximate cost and in your area, it might cost more. I hope this information helps.

This depends entirely on how it is done and the type of anesthetic chosen. Costs will vary from $2500 up to $7500 for an isolated dorsal hump removal.
