Question:
I'm 28 years old, I've wanted my nose done since I was 15. When I was young I had a nice straight nose, when I hit my teenage years my nose began to get a so-called "hump" on it. Which runs in my family. Everyone of course says I look beautiful the way I am, and I don't think I'm "ugly", but I hate my nose, and would like to have the hump straightened out and the wide tip narrowed. I just wanted to know how much money I need to do this type of procedure, since I'll probably be paying out pocket. A ball-park figure to get started.
Answer:
A ballpark fee for nasoplasty can be anywhere from $5000-$8000, depending on how much needs to be done. It is too hard to give quotes over the internet; I really need to examine your nose so we can discuss exactly what needs to be done. I can then give you a realistic quote for your surgery. Please set up an appointment with my secretary (912) 351-5050 ext. 102. Thanks, I look forward to meeting you soon!
