Answer: Why does it cost way more to have revision rhinoplasty? In our practice, revision rhinoplasty usually takes longer to perform than primary rhinoplasty due to the fact that additional cartilage grafts may be required to be harvested from the ear, or the nose. Since the cost of a rhinoplasty is directly determined by time in the operative room and time under anesthesia, it will naturally be more expensive, since it takes longer to perform. For more information, many before-and-after examples of revision rhinoplasty and our current price list for primary and revision rhinoplasty, please see the link and the video below

Answer: Why is revision rhinoplasty more expensive Revision surgery is commonly more expensive due to a number of factors. The main reason is that revision surgery, of almost any kind, is more difficult and time consuming than primary surgery. There is more scar tissue, less original structure, and usually a new problem which was created by the initial surgery. There is also a smaller population of qualified revision rhinoplasty surgeons around when compared to surgeons who are performing primary nasal surgery. Best of luck

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your excellent question. In general, revisions are more expensive because the cases are significantly more challenging, and the dangers of incorrectly addressing the issue are greater. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
