How much does Rhinoplasty surgery cost?

Total nose job surgery cost might consist of several fees which varies in different countries and different medical centers. According to American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) national average rhinoplasty cost in 2008 was 4,197$. That is a fee to a surgeon only.

The surgeon's fee is affected by these factors:

• Surgeon's expertise, skill and how much he demands
• The geographic area (In USA rhinoplasty costs more than in Europe)
• The time needed and complexity of a nose job

Total rhinoplasty (nose job) surgery cost might increase because of these additional payments:

• The cost of implant used;
• Anesthesia cost;
• Surgery room fee;
• Facilities fees;
• Office (hospital or medical center) stay fees.

Surgeon fee in total rhinoplasty cost has the largest piece. You should find out more about your doctor's expertise and decide whether he is worth the money he is asking for or not. Don't forget to ask your consulting surgeon about all fees you'll have to pay to find out the real cost of nose job (rhinoplasty) surgery.

Be sure to ask your surgeon about board certification, training and experience. Does he belong to a serious board such as American Board of Plastic Surgery or he's one, unknown and just calls himself a specialist? Don't be afraid to ask and examine.

Rhinoplasty (nose job) surgery payment

You can pay with cash or credit card.

If you have breathing problems which are caused by nasal deformities (such as deviated nose septum) you should approach your insurance company to partly refund your surgery.

If you don't have enough money to cover all the cost of rhinoplasty at once you should examine a possibility to pay monthly.
