Is there really a significant difference between getting rhinoplasty done with a top surgeon in LA or NYC vs getting it done by a well trained surgeon in another state?
Answer: Finding the right surgeon Hello and thank you for your question. It is very important that you thoroughly research your surgeon before committing to surgery. It is a good idea to research your surgeon's educational background, online reviews, before & after pictures, and speak with anyone who you may know who has had surgery with that surgeon. During your consultation, make sure that you don't feel rushed and make sure that you have adequate time with your surgeon and not just their patient coordinator or nurses. If the majority of your consultation is spent with someone other than the surgeon, this is usually not a good sign. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified expert surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.

Answer: Travel for certain things rhino3,The top doctors are all over - it's the individual not the location. But, for a complicated case you may want to find someone who has unique experience. We are a destination practice with about 90% of patients flying in from out of state, but there are good doctor's all over.

Answer: Rhinoplasty - travel or stay regional? Thank you for your question. Excellent points were made by my colleagues Dr. Farrior and Dr. Finn. There are many fantastic surgeons in your area who are capable of delivering beautiful results. Rhinoplasty requires follow up and this most easily accomplished if you select a local or regional surgeon. I suggest that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon with experience in rhinoplasty. Look at their before/after photos, listen to their recommendations, determine the "fit" between your personality and theirs, and make a decision based on these variables. You have many excellent options.

Answer: LA versus NYC versus other states for rhinoplasty? Most rhinoplasty surgeons are usually located in large Metropolitan cities. Look for a surgeon who has dedicated a significant component of their practice to the discipline of rhinoplasty and has a large photo Gallery of before and after rhinoplasty patients.
