How much would it cost to straighten my nose? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and sharing your photo. It is understandable that you would like to have information about the cost of surgery as soon as possible. Your plastic surgeon must first complete a thorough evaluation before your individualized surgical plan can be developed. Following this, the fees required for your surgery will be discussed with you. While most insurance plans will not pay for aesthetic nose reshaping, they frequently will cover surgery performed on the internal structures of the nose to improve breathing problems. Your plastic surgeon can discuss this with you during your personal consultation. Best of luck!Dhaval M. Patel Double Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Hoffman Estates Barrington Oakbrook Chicago 

Gabriela,Thank you for your question regarding rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty involves straightening the nose, refining the nasal tip and improving the nasal bump. Rhinoplasty cost varies by city and even surgeon. Within the rhinoplasty fee are the usual hospital charges, surgeon's fees, and anesthesia cost. For a primary rhinoplasty cost can be between $7000 to $8000 in Texas. What is most important is that you consult with a board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon who is a rhinoplasty specialist. 

  The cost of a rhinoplasty is directly proportional to the amount of time it takes to perform the procedure in a formal operating room, time monitored under anesthesia by a physician anesthesiologist, and the surgeon's professional fee for performing the procedure in addition to all of the post operative follow-up appointments for 1 year.  The dorsal hump can be shaved down, the bridge line narrowed in the tip refined with closed rhinoplasty approach, which involves placement of all the incisions on the inside of the nose. Digital computer imaging would also be helpful to understand what your new nose would look like upon your facial features.  Choose your surgeon very wisely since rhinoplasty is quite a difficult endeavor.  Study your prospective surgeon's rhinoplasty  photo gallery and make sure that its extensive.
