Nose jobs are one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries due to their impact on facial appearance. Beyond aesthetics, rhinoplasty can also address functional issues, such as breathing difficulties caused by a deviated septum. At Stein Plastic Surgery, every rhinoplasty is tailored to fit each patient’s lifestyle, needs, and goals.
What Types of Nose Jobs Are Offered at Stein Plastic Surgery?
Stein Plastic Surgery offers a range of rhinoplasty procedures, including open rhinoplasty (for more extensive changes with an incision between the nostrils) and closed rhinoplasty (scarless, with incisions inside the nose). Other specialized rhinoplasties include ethnic rhinoplasty, preserving unique cultural characteristics, and revision rhinoplasty for corrections after a previous surgery.
How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost?
Rhinoplasty can range widely in cost from $500 to $20,000 based on the procedure type, surgeon, location, and other factors. At Stein Plastic Surgery, primary rhinoplasty costs approximately $9,200-$10,400, and revision rhinoplasty starts at $10,200. Please schedule a consultation to discuss your personalized cost estimate.
How Long is Recovery from a Nose Job?
Most patients can resume light activities within a week. The first three days are marked by most of the swelling and bruising, and by two weeks, many are comfortable attending social events and resuming exercise. Full recovery takes up to a year as the nose settles into its final shape, providing long-lasting results.
What Results Can I Expect from Rhinoplasty?
Dr. Stein, a double-board-certified surgeon with over 26 years of experience, addresses a range of rhinoplasty concerns, such as:
- Large or wide noses
- Prominent bumps on the bridge
- Drooping nose tips
- Deviated septum
During your consultation, you can discuss your goals with Dr. Stein, often using reference photos to clarify your expectations.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Nose Job?
If you wish to change the shape or size of your nose for aesthetic or functional reasons, you may be an ideal candidate. Candidates should be in good health with realistic expectations and, if necessary, be able to stop smoking before the procedure. Teenagers should wait until their nose is fully developed.
