I would like to know if I can get a nose job done if I had a surgery before on my nick and it became a small keloid. Would keloid occur on my nose if I get rhinoplasty? My nose kinda has a thick skin and from the sides they look kinda rounded and also The tip if kinda low. From the front they look really big and they make me really uncomfortable and have no confidence. I would like to know if I would get scars of keloid if I get rhinoplasty. And what would the price would be?

Answer: Rhinoplasty Dear laila99, Thank you for your question. I tell all of my patients that scars are like real estate, as they are all dependent upon location. Rhinoplasty incisions, if cared for appropriately usually end up inconspicuous after a few months. Although not impossible, it is unlikely that you will form a keloid scar on your nose following surgery. As far as pricing goes, I suggest doing research on Board Certified Operating Surgeons in your area, although the average price ranges from about $7,000 to $11,000. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate Dear laila99, if you get a surgery, there are no guarantees that you won't get keloids, especially if you developed them earlier. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
