How Much Would a Tip Refinement Cost? (photo)

It is definitely possible to perform a tip rhinoplasty only, and in some cases, the cost will be less than a full rhinoplasty. Septoplasty surgery is generally covered by insurance if the septum is deviated and there are nasal obstruction symptoms, but this does not affect the appearance of the nose in most cases. Any changes to the shape of the nose would be considered cosmetic and not covered under any insurance plans.
All the best,

Your tip is a little full. It would benefit from slight reduction and mostly suturing techniques to modify and re shape the tip. This will improve the overall appearance

The cost of the tip refinement or tip plasty  is approximately half of a full rhinoplasty cost. The tip- rhinoplasty must be paid for by the patient, while the septoplasty is usually billed to the patient's medical insurance once medical necessity has been documented. Co-pays and  deductibles  still apply for insurance related purposes. 

Good morning, thank you for your inquiry about the cost of tip rhinoplasty.

 

To give a broad range, the cost may be anywhere from $4,000 to $6,000.  I don't think sedation or anesthesia would be required as it adds to your recovery and costs.   You can do this under local anesthesia with ease in experienced hands.

 

Best of luck and be sure to get several consults.

You are a candidate for a tip rhinoplaty, which can improve the round, broad tip with flaring of the nostrils. THIS WILL BRING MORE BALANCE INTO YOUR NOSE. This surgery could be performed as out patient under local or general anesthesia and should not take more than 45 minutes. The cost is approximately $ 4000 to $ 5000,
