Tips:

• Keep in mind if you are just getting the tip of your nose done, your surgery could be slightly lower than the prices given. If your rhinoplasty includes breathing correction, then your cost could be higher.
• In New York City you will find great price variations once you leave the borough of Manhattan. In more middle income areas such as Queens, you could have that $14,000 Manhattan rhinoplasty for $11,000.
• In general, the more experienced your surgeon is, the more expensive your procedure will be. Do not cut yourself short just because of price.
• Having your rhinoplasty done in a hospital rather than an outpatient could increase the cost of your surgery by thousands of dollars.
