What is the Rhinoplasty Recovery?

A rhinoplasty is a very delicate, involved procedure and requires several hours to complete. As each procedure is customized, the time in surgery will vary. Recovery involves the following:

  • You will wear a splint on your nose week and packing in nose for 24 hours to protect your new nose.
  • The incision is at the base of your nose in the columella – the thin strip of tissue between the nostrils and will be invisible to the eye once your incision heals.
  • Any facial bruising subsides in about two to three weeks. Bruising typically appears around the eyes.
  • The swelling will subside in about four weeks.
  • Swelling of surrounding tissue disappears in two to three weeks.
  • Full recovery is expected in about four weeks, depending upon your individual healing rate.

During your recovery, you must not bend over, and will be required to keep your head elevated, while awake and during sleep hours. Any discomfort is easily managed with pain medication.

Who is a Candidate for Rhinoplasty

A candidate for rhinoplasty typically includes individuals who:

  1. Have a fully developed nose: Candidates should generally be in their late teens or older when the nose has stopped growing.
  2. Seek to improve the appearance of their nose: This may involve addressing concerns such as a hump on the bridge, a bulbous or drooping tip, a nose that is too large or too small, or asymmetry.
  3. Experience breathing issues: Some candidates seek rhinoplasty to correct structural problems, such as a deviated septum, that cause breathing difficulties.
  4. Are in good overall health: Candidates should be non-smokers or willing to quit smoking before and after surgery, as smoking can interfere with healing.
  5. Have realistic expectations: Ideal candidates understand the procedure's limitations and have a clear, realistic goal for their rhinoplasty results.
  6. Are psychologically stable: Candidates should be emotionally mature and seek rhinoplasty for personal reasons rather than to please others.

Rhinoplasty Cost

A quality rhinoplasty procedure will cost approximately between $5,500 and $10,000. There are different factors that determine the costs involved in such a plastic surgery or cosmetic surgery. The operating costs are different in different states. Hence, costs vary and prices may be higher in some states when compared to the others. Each plastic surgeon or cosmetic surgeon also has his own price. Costs will depend upon your selection. If you choose a premier doctor, costs will be over $5000 for sure, but a less reputable surgeon can complete the procedure for around $3000 – $5000.

The duration of the surgery and your unique body type will also have an effect on costs as anesthesia will be needed based on your special requirements. The more anesthesia required, the higher will your costs be. However, anesthesia costs around $700 on average. Another expenditure you will have to incur is fees for the facility. You will have to pay approximately $800 for using a facility to complete the procedure. The type of surgery you pick also plays a significant role in determining costs. The surgeries alone cost separate amounts of money in addition to the aforementioned expenses.

Types of Rhinoplasty and Costs Associated with them

The basic kinds of rhinoplasty includes a primary open nose job, which costs between $3200 and $6500, while a primary closed nose job costs between $2900 and $5800. A primary septoplasty turbinectomy costs between $3500 and $6500, a secondary open nose job can be completed for around $7000 to $9000 and a secondary closed nose job will cost anywhere between $2700 and $10000. Upon consultation with Dr. Brian J. Parker in Las Vegas, you can figure out the exact costs you will be incurring should you choose to get a nose job done.

Importance of Picking a Specialist to Perform Your Surgery

Cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery are performed by several different surgeons. However, it takes a specialist to excel at the job. Since you will be spending a good amount of money, it is essential that you pick a doctor who has enough experience to ensure a good job. Dr. Brian J. Parker has all the expertise and experience required to change the shape or structure of your nose to significantly enhance your aesthetic appeal.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most complex surgical procedures. If you have decided to go ahead and get a nose job, make sure you do enough research and consult with the best of professionals to understand everything associated with the procedure. It is best to pick a premier surgeon and pay an extra thousand dollars as money is not permanent, but your nose certainly will be. Even if you don’t have enough money for a premier surgeon, wait a little longer, save up and only then go in for surgery. Say, you have, $5000 and a premier surgery costs around $7000, you can always wait for a while to collect that amount instead of choosing a less reputable surgeon who is not a guaranteed deliverer of a quality nose job.
