Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, also known as a ""nose job,"" is a surgical procedure that alters the shape and size of the nose. It includes reducing or increasing the size of the nose, changing the shape of the tip or bridge, narrowing the nostrils, or altering the angle between the nose and the upper lip. Rhinoplasty can be performed for both cosmetic and functional reasons, for example to correct an abnormality or injury at birth, or to improve respiration.

The cost of rhinoplasty can vary significantly based on a number of factors, including the surgeon's experience, the scope of the procedure, and where you live. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of a rhinoplasty in the United States is $5,483. That average cost is only a portion of the total price. It does not include anesthesia, operating room facilities or other related expenses.
