5,000-7,000 Rhinoplasty in los angeles possible?

Question

I want to get a bump shaved down and fix my tip since I feel like it's a little droopy. I was wondering if that price range is even possible here in los angeles or a nearby city. And can get the surgery done within the next month since I will be going to school and start a new job.

Edwin F. Williams, III, MD · Answer

Quite honestly, that price range seems a little low for a major city. I've answered this question in a video as to what one can expect taking into consideration anesthesia, operating room, and surgeon's fees. I hope you find it useful.

Hello,You don't want to go to some cheep chop shop where a less then expert/skilled/trained doctor would be working on your nose.  Go see some great surgeons, get your photos digitally imaged, and look into financing.Best of luck!

Toby Mayer, MD · Answer

A excellent experienced surgeon will cost more than an inexperienced surgeon etc. While cost is not always a guarantee for a successful outcome going by price alone will often end up costing you much more having revision surgery. See several experienced  surgeons  Who can evaluate your nose and determine true cost.

Dear ...............Having surgery with a surgeon just because of affordable pricing might get you in trouble and cause significant headaches and problems. Look through your resources and make a list of a few surgeons that you think are good choices based on training, knowledge and experience. Then find out their price range and have surgery if you can afford it at this time. Revisions and complications are much harder to manage.

Robert Kotler, MD, FACS · Answer

You mentioned a range of $5,000-7,000.  Now the one issue that you have to be very
clear on is whether or not that is an “all-inclusive” fee which would include
the surgeon’s care both before and after surgery, and the services and
anesthesia specialist, and the outpatient surgery center or hospital or
doctor’s office facility.  It is very
important that all the costs be enumerated when you have your consultation.  It is hard for me to comment on whether or
not you could have a rhinoplasty for that cost because, again, I am not sure
whether you are looking at the all-inclusive costs or just the $5,000-7,000 as
the surgeon’s fee.

The way to know is to have a consultation and make sure
you get a written quotation which covers all of these services.  The practice will be glad to give it to you.  Before you go, be sure to check out the
practice by visiting the practice’s website, read the reviews by patients, and
be sure to do as much homework as you can before you get to the consultation.  At consultation, you do want to have computer
imaging so you can see the predicted result of the procedure and make sure you
are comfortable with the surgeon’s suggestions. 
Experience and talent and a high degree of specialization are very
important of course.  That is what you
are looking for.  Be sure to bring a
friend or family member to the consultation because a lot of information will
be passed back and forth, and you don’t want to miss anything.  Before you come to the consultation, be
prepared with a written list of questions for the doctor and the staff and, in
this case, you will have questions for the practice administrator who generally
manages the financial aspects of your care.

Best
wishes,

If what you are describing is the actual procedure that is done, then yes it is possible to stay in your price range of $5000.00 to $7000.00.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

It is important to shop quality, not price, since the nose  is the most prominent feature on the face. Getting it done right the first time cost a lot less than going through  a  revision 2 or 3 times. Look for a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who has dedicated a significant component of their surgical practice to the discipline of rhinoplasty, performs them often on a weekly basis, and has an extensive portfolio of before and after pictures in their rhinoplasty photo Gallery. The cost of a rhinoplasty is directly determined by the amount of time it takes to perform the procedure in an operating room, the amount of time monitored by a physician anesthesiologist under general anesthesia, and the surgeon's professional fees for performing the surgery in addition all the postoperative followup appointments.  For many examples and our current price list, please see the link and the video below

You can get your dorsum and tip fixed using an open tip rhinoplasty; this surgery ranges between 7 to 12 K. A consultation is necessary to provide you an accurate price.

Richard W. Fleming, MD (retired) · Answer

Charges for rhinoplasty surgery will vary depending on what needs to be done. Your budget is low but I would consult with rhinoplasty specialists to examine your nose and determine fees. While cost is important to all of us, don't let this be your only parameter; if not done well a revision will cost a lot more.
