How much is Alarplasty? (Photo)

Please do not select your rhinoplasty expert based upon price.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA...

When you change the position of the Alae  the way you have shown you will also change your nasal tip as well as the look of the rest of the nose. That's why this procedure is rarely done as an isolated procedure. It is combined with a rhinoplasty to make everything match. See a very experienced surgeon for the best results.

Alarplasty, alone, is a simple procedure that can be done as an outpatient in the office under local. This keeps the cost down as there is not facility or anesthesia fee. My office charges $1000-1500.   I would caution you against going with the absolute cheapest as technique and design of alarplasty is extremely important. There can be a domino effect that affects both your breathing and how the rest of your nose looks with just isolated Alarplasty. Please see an experienced board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consult.
