The Cost of Rhinoplasty in Tijuana
Rhinoplasty is an extremely complex procedure
Rhinoplasty at Tijuana Rhinoplasty is a complex form of plastic surgery that creates permanent changes in the framework of the nose to improve aesthetics and function.
Rhinoplasty is universally considered to be one of the most complicated cosmetic surgeries. Therefore, it is not something that you want to leave up to chance by choosing an unskilled or unprepared surgeon.
Unfortunately, when most rhinoplasty candidates start researching their procedure and potential surgeon, they cannot always see past the dollar sign.
Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Edgar Eduardo Santos, hopes that candidates find a way to consider the factors that go into the price you are paying.
Prices
The cost of primary rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty varies significantly depending on the specifications of the procedure:
Primary Rhinoplasty : $4,000 – $5,000 USD
Revision Rhinoplasty: $5,000 – $6,000 USD
Rhinoplasty Cost Factors
The overall cost is a representation of the surgeon’s training, expertise, and surgical history.
Several factors contribute to the price of your rhinoplasty.
Anesthesia
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. This type of anesthetic means that you will be completely asleep for the procedure and will not remember any aspect of it.
This is the deepest level of sedation. Therefore, your anesthesia must be administered by the highest level of trained professionals.
At Tijuana Rhinoplasty, we only use board-certified anesthesiologists.
Surgical Techniques
Rhinoplasty manipulates the bone and cartilage in the nose to change nasal aesthetics, ease breathing, or perform a combination of both. There are several techniques and several types of nose surgery.
These differing techniques affect the cost of your rhinoplasty.
There will be a difference between a rhinoplasty that is used for reduction purposes and one that is performed for augmentation.
When a nose is reduced in size (or treated for nasal humps or wide nostrils), the bone and cartilage is shaved down or removed. There may be an additional cost for that technique.
When a nose is augmented, a graft is required. This graft can be created from your cartilage—usually by borrowing cartilage from the nasal septum, the ear, or the ribs, or it is constructed with another material like an implant.
This extra material comes with an additional cost.
