What Is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a "nose job", is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose. It can change the size, angle, or shape of the nose and improve its overall appearance. Rhinoplasty may also correct structural issues with the nose, such as an obstruction in breathing caused by a deviated septum or nasal valve collapse. This procedure can be combined with other facial plastic surgery procedures for enhanced results.

This can be achieved through various techniques, such as removing excess tissue or cartilage, reducing the size of the nostrils, and making adjustments to the bridge and tip of the nose. There are numerous different techniques used in Rhinoplasty and it requires a thorough understanding and experience by a surgeon to be able to apply the right technique for you. Dr. Franck will discuss which method is best for you based on your desired results and the anatomy of your nose.

What can I expect after rhinoplasty surgery?
Rhinoplasty surgery is a major procedure and requires proper recovery time. Immediately following the surgery, you may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the nose area. You will need to wear a splint for about a week to help keep the structure of your nose intact. It’s also important to avoid strenuous activities such as running, lifting heavy objects, or any activities that could increase your blood pressure. We will provide you with medications to help reduce swelling and discomfort during recovery. Swelling can take several months to subside completely, but most visible changes will be apparent within 6-8 weeks after surgery.
How much does a nose job cost
The cost of rhinoplasty in New York City will often depend on the type of procedure and technique required. Dr. Franck at Kassir Plastic Surgery will provide an accurate estimate after assessing your case during a consultation. In general, rhinoplasty can range from $10,000-$25,000 depending on whether it is a closed or open technique and other factors. The total cost is a combination of the surgeon's fee, the anesthesia cost, and facility fees. One of the most important factors determining the rhinoplasty cost is if it is a primary rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty. Revision rhinoplasty surgery is more difficult and requires more extensive surgery due to scar tissue and the possible need for additional grafts. Dr. Franck, together with the team at Kassir Plastic Surgery, offer financing options, such as CareCredit and PatientFi, to help make your rhinoplasty more affordable.
Can insurance cover rhinoplasty?
In general, rhinoplasty is considered a cosmetic procedure, and most insurance companies will not cover the cost. However, if you have a deviated septum or other medical condition that can be improved with rhinoplasty, then your health insurance may cover some of the cost. It’s important to bring up any functional problems during your consultation with Dr. Franck to learn more about what is and isn’t covered. During your consultation, our team will be able to assess if part of the costs of rhinoplasty can be covered by your health insurance.
