I'm a 25 year old woman looking to get an ethnic rhinoplasty. I've seen patients who have gone through surgery with minimal results. I was wondering if you thought this procedure could make my nose more symmetrical and appealing. Also will I be able to have this procedure for under $5000 USD Can BBL and Rhino be done together? Are there risks involved with doing them together?
Answer: Ethnic rhinoplasty Being price sensitive is important. However, what you really want is the outcome you desire. That requires a consultation. You would express your desires and the doctor would provide you the cost. You can also use the RealSelf function that shows you the cost of a rhinoplasty in your location. While cost is important, you do not want to be a re-do rhinoplasty patient.

Answer: Ethnic Rhinoplasty? African American Rhinoplasty Candidate You are right to begin a search for an expert who understands the unique structural challenges of African-American rhinoplasty. African American noses tend to have thicker skin and weaker tip support than Caucasian noses, which means that surgical techniques vary between ethnic and Caucasian noses. It takes special interest and study to understand the facial aesthetics to create a nose that is harmonious with your other features and also respects your heritage. Take the time to find the right facial plastic surgeon and ask them to create digital images of the nose they propose for you and discuss the cost. I hope this helps.

Answer: Ethnic rhinoplasty Dear vernisha23,You can have an ethnic rhinoplasty to make your nose look nicerWith your features and skin type, it is very easy to have a bad result if you go to the wrong personIf you only have $5000 to spend on your nose, I would wait and save more money so you have better optionsYour nose is not going to be a simple rhinoplasty, and if you need a revision, expect to pay 15K plus because revision surgery is even more complicatedAlthough price is important, keep in mind that it is not just the surgeon you are paying for, you need to pay for the surgery center time and an anesthesiologistBest,Dr. Nima

Answer: African American Rhinoplasty Candidate Your nose can be improved with rhinoplasty. The most common things addressed by my African American patients in regards to their nasal shape are: Weak or thin cartilage in the tip of the noseThick skin on the noseA low nasal bridgeWide nostrilsWith over 2 decades of experience in the field of rhinoplasty and a sub-specialty of ethnic rhinoplasty, I use a different set of surgical techniques to achieve a look for that individual patient that maintains their ethnic identity while helping to provide them with the modifications and enhancements they desire. The most important thing you can do on your journey toward finding the right surgeon is to seek out a board certified facial plastic surgeon that specializes in ethnic rhinoplasty. You want to put your nose in the hands of experience and have a unified vision with your surgeon. Cost will vary due to facilities fee, anesthesia fees, etc. I am going to provide you a link to more information about African American Rhinoplasty and a video that also explains the procedure. I hope you find this information helpful as you move forward. Please feel free to reach out to our office in New York City if you have any questions. Sincerely, Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS Double Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Cheap Surgery is High Risk Surgery Hello, You can get a stunning result with an ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeon (or AAFPRS equivalent) who specializes in open structural rhinoplasty. However, you won't find one who is experienced, skilled, and busy for that price. You will find a surgeon to do it for $5000, but you are more likely to have a problem or be unhappy with your result. Best of luck!
