How much would it cost to fix a hook nose? (photos)

Question

I have a hook nose, as shown (also a weak chin but I'm not very worried about that, I'm only concerned about my nose). How much would that cost and how would it be fixed?

These are great questions you are asking.
 The cost of a rhinoplasty is dependent on a few factors in my practice.
 They are:

1) Facility Fee
2) Anesthesia Fee
3) Surgeon’s Fee

I will talk about each of them.

The facility fee is cost paid to the location
where is surgery is performed.  This covers all of the supplies,
instruments, and staff that will take care of you.  This can be an
outpatient surgery center or hospital.

The anesthesia fee is the monies paid to cover
the cost of the medical person suppling the anesthesia and supplies.

The surgeon's fee is paid to your rhinoplasty
surgeon.  It covers all of your office visits before and after surgery and
the surgery.  This fee will change based on the amount of work and
difficultly of the rhinoplasty.  Revision rhinoplasties generally will be
more expensive.

Generally speaking a primary rhinoplasty can
vary from 7,500 to 9,500 dollars.

Rhinoplasty for the large nose with nasal bump and probable bulbous tip etc See a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. You have a short nose and refinement of the tip by an inexperienced surgeon this can often shorten the nose even more. Otherwise you should have a fine result if you choose a surgeon who does natural noses.

Hello potato18,The cost of rhinoplasty is made up of several factors. The cost of the operation can vary widely based on geography, the surgeon's experience and skill, and other factors. Costs can be broken down into its component parts such as the surgeon's (professional) fee, facility fee, equipment fees, and fees for anesthesia. Usually cosmetic rhinoplasty ranges from about $6000-10000. Often times surgeons will charge more for revision surgery as these surgeries tend to be more difficult and complex.From your limited photo, I think that refining your profile by lowering the bridge of the nose to a straight profile.  However, an in-person examination would be best to assess any additional needs.Michael M. Kim, MD

Based on your photo you do appear to be a candidate for rhinoplasty. A far superior result with regard to balance of your face would be achieved with rhinoplasty and a chin implant. However, rhinoplasty alone would create significant improvement in your profile. Costs can range from $5000 - 10000 depending upon your location and the surgeon that you choose. I hope this answer is helpful for you. Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

The convexity or hook in the nose is created by excess cartilage and bone along the dorsal bridge line. The rhinoplasty procedure involves shaving down the dorsal hump, reducing the  nasal bridge line and getting  the nose to be better proportional with the facial  features. For many examples of  rhinoplasty for hump removal and our price list, please see the link and video below

Hi potato18. Costs for rhinoplasty vary depending on the region, surgeon, and complexity of the case. It is very important to find a surgeon with good qualifications, expertise and natural results. Rhinoplasty can be a complex operation and requires expert knowledge to master. It appears based on your profile that your radix may need to be augmented and a small dorsal hump taken down. Good luck in your search. Best, Dr H
