Can Rhinoplasty Cost More or Less then Around $6,000-$7,000?

Rhinoplasty prices vary greatly
because the rhinoplasty procedure itself encompasses a wide range of
techniques that can be performed to different extents.Therefore the cost
range is pretty wide from $6000-$12,000. My recommendation is to first
find qualified surgeons   that are board certified by the American Board
of Plastic Surgery or the American Board of Otolaryngology. Find one or
two surgeons you trust, then compare prices between them. Factors that
influence the price include:
1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight
stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctors office?
2. Type of Anesthesia -  IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a
board certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used, or an
RN?
    
 
3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best
trained (and longest) would be a surgeon board  certified by the
American Board of Plastic Surgery, but also consider American Board of
Otolaryngology trained surgeons
    
 4. Length and Complexity of
Surgery - Tip Rhinoplasty only or complete rhinoplasty, open or closed
technique, deviated septum repair,or breathing problems corrected, , how
long, ?etc

In general, primary rhinoplasty costs can range from $5,000 to $8,000, and revision rhinoplasty can cost $10,000 to $15,000.  The extent of the nose surgery also affects the price.

Meet with the doctor for a comprehensive consultation to review your concerns regarding partial versus full surgery.  In addition, all plastic surgeons perform this operation with different levels of skill, and the only way you can determine your surgeon's skill is to see his actual results.  -Ross A.

That seems about right in terms of cost for rhinoplasty performed by a qualified board certified facial plastic surgeon. In my practice, we don't necessarily charge much less just because you are having mostly tip work done. The cost goes toward surgeon experience, facility fees (that will be incurred regardless of how much work is being done), and anesthesia fees combined. Good luck with your decision.

You will be able to find surgeons that will do it for that price range.  In general though, making the tip smaller qualifies as a "full" surgery.  Choosing a rhinoplasty surgeon can be challenging.  My recommendation would be to choose your surgeon first, then work on the price point.  

The fees for rhinoplasty will vary because of the complexity of the procedure. It will also vary from region to region. That fee does not sound unreasonable.

That is a reasonable range for what you're looking to accomplish. I strongly suggest to my patients that they figure out in consultation with a plastic surgeon what the correct surgery is for them rather than partial or full surgery. You can figure that out at your consultation appointment. From your description it sounds like you would benefit from a tip rhinoplasty and possible reduction of the base of the nose. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACS

Charges for rhinoplasty surgery will vary depending on what is done. Doing just a tip typically costs less than a full rhinoplasty. The fees you mention are reasonable for the changes you describe.
