I have $5,000 saved up for rhinoplasty. How much more do I need to save up? I live in Florida. African American descent (Photo)

Rhinoplasty is a very personal experience and it is important to trust your face to a surgeon that has significant experience with African American Noses.  I recommend you seeking a board certified facial plastic & reconstructive and/or Plastic surgeon to discuss the plan and expectations.  I recommend you interviewing board certified surgeons in your area and make the decision based on your connection with the surgeon.  The fee should include Surgeon's fee, Operating room fee and Anesthesia fee.  I would suggest you seeking out the range for the procedure in your area and choose the surgeon that your feel most comfortable with.

Your bridge seems to be fine, if you are happy with it I would not touch the bridge; however the tip needs extensive reduction and very very important it needs grafting (Sheen's), since you have a poorly defined tip and you will be amazed how beautiful you may look with a well shaped and defined tiny tip.

Dear Dollbaby8080,The actual cost of rhinoplasty may depend on whether your insurance would be involved or not and extensiveness of your surgery. Some insurance companies pay for functional portion of your septorhinoplasty surgery. Also bear in mind that anesthesia fee and facility fee are separate charges to your surgeon's fee. Most practices will charge anywhere from $3000-$10,000 for rhinoplasty (all inclusive).

If you are in Florida traveling to Dominican Republic may be a choice to get a Rhinoplasty for your African American Nose.Is unfortunate that your pictures do not allow me to make an evaluation since they should be taken at a close up range from your face, with your hair pull back : front, lateral and under the nostrils views. I do not consider ethical to give you a quote without an evaluation, and also in private.

Thanks for your question. The price of rhinoplasty varies considerably from surgeon to surgeon and depends on a number of factors, the most important of which are 1) surgeons fee; 2) anesthesia fee 3) facility fee. By far the most cost effective way for you to achieve your goals is to find a well credentialed rhinoplasty surgeon who also works with insurance. Many do not, but there are some, particularly facial plastic and reconstructive surgeons. Hope this helps.
