“Rhinoplasty cost may vary from patient to patient depending on a variety of factors, including the complexity of the surgery, whether previous surgery was performed, and if the need to involve other cosmetic procedures, such as alarplasty or septoplasty, to enhance the aesthetic outcomes”
The cost of rhinoplasty involves both extrinsic and intrinsic factors to be accountable to determine the final price, in addition the expertise of a plastic surgeon, specialized in nose job with active membership from the renowned plastic surgery societies, such as RSE (Rhinoplasty Society of Europe), may charge you higher, but ensures the best aesthetic results possible.
Dr. Karishma Kagodu, one of the leading plastic surgeons in Bangalore, South India, stated that it is no surprise that rhinoplasty done in higher cost-of-living states weighs more than the lower cost-of-living states. Still, it may hold your attention that every economic class of people takes an interest in improving their looks with cosmetic enhancements. The cost of primary rhinoplasty surgery at Dr. Karishma Aesthetics starts at around ₹45,000 and may go up to ₹2,00,000, depending on various factors involved in the procedure. The total rhinoplasty cost may include surgery price, anesthesia charge, and operation theatre charges, as well as preoperative and postoperative visits.
Rhinoplasty is a surgery of millimeters because even a single deviation or point mistake can cause a compromised result. However, nose job surgery requires extreme precision and surgical expertise from a plastic surgeon, and choosing an experienced surgeon is crucial. This decision, of course, influences the cost of surgery.
We at KAesthetics interacted with a few patients who had undergone primary rhinoplasty surgery at other clinics or centres. They had been offered the least cost because the procedure was performed by a less experienced plastic surgeon, and ended up with a botched nose job. However, it is a first prerequisite to do some wise searching to select the best rhinoplasty surgeon. Visiting reputable websites and reading some blogs is worth doing. Moreover, achieving the best results and minimizing costs through rhinoplasty can only be met by choosing an expert surgeon, and you do not require revision surgery except in cases of accidental injuries or trauma.
Can I get a rhinoplasty redone if I have a “botched” nose?
As mentioned above, the cost of rhinoplasty is highly influenced by the expertise, experience, and credibility of a plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty surgery. However, if you have had your surgery with an expert surgeon, it is less likely to develop unforeseen events or a botched nose. Even though you have to pay more, it is still a wise and cost-effective decision because you do not need several surgeries to achieve the results you desire, and the case of a botched nose is not a concern in this scenario.
But suppose you have had your initial rhinoplasty go wrong, and you become a victim of a botched nose job. In that case, it can be perfectly corrected with a revision/ secondary rhinoplasty, which an expert nose job surgeon must perform.
Various problems may arise after a poorly done rhinoplasty that are common in patients who have had a low-cost nose job from elsewhere, and the avoidable complications can be seen in many forms, from symmetrical flaws to shape issues to breathing problems.
A botched rhinoplasty raises the request for a revision surgery, and the aesthetic concerns that require correction include:
- Significant asymmetry
- Breathing issues
- Shape issue, i.e., “inverted-V deformity” (collapse of the midsection of the nose due to lack of support), “pollybeak deformity” (the cartilage portion of the hump remains after bony hump removal), and the “open roof deformity” (insufficient movement of bone)
Note: Because the shape issue is more complex to fix, it is crucial to choose the right rhinoplasty surgeon to do your revision tasks.
25% of rhinoplasty cases performed by Dr. Karishma Kagodu are revisions of other surgeons’ operations.
Can I get a rhinoplasty and maintain my natural look?
Of course, if you have had your rhinoplasty surgery done with an experienced nose job surgeon who has extreme artistic skills and outstanding surgical precision, acclaimed widely for delivering the best results, the before-and-after pictures can be the valid proof.
Dr. Karishma Kagodu, the best rhinoplasty surgeon in India, has a philosophy to give their patients the results they love. Your first goal with any cosmetic enhancements is to preserve the family traits or ethnic identity at its best, and even though the correction or enhancement was done, these traits must be beautifully exhibited. In some cases, when the ethnic traits compromise the aesthetics of a nose, it is only corrected with rhinoplasty to achieve the desired results. However, it is still all about meeting the realistic expectations and aesthetic outcomes.
Is rhinoplasty just for looks?
Rhinoplasty surgery is performed for aesthetic and functional reasons, and it receives the most attention for those seeking dual benefits of correcting breathing difficulties and aesthetic enhancements simultaneously. Although the majority of people opt for nose job surgery for aesthetic reasons, some patients who have nasal obstructions require functional rhinoplasty. Functional rhinoplasty is performed to correct deviated septum (bone and cartilage that is shifted to one or both sides of the nose), nasal valve collapse (inward movement of the nasal soft tissue), and turbinate hypertrophy (swollen mucous membranes that take up precious space in the nasal airway). A proper examination is done to evaluate the nature of the obstruction to determine the right technique to meet the desired goals.
