The shape and size of the nose can have a significant impact on the appearance and symmetry of the face, and because of this, some patients feel a lack of self-confidence and shyness to socialize. Whether it is due to genetic factors or childhood accidents such as a broken nose, there are many different reasons why a person may be unhappy with the appearance of their nose. In this case, people can resort to rhinoplasty to help reduce or enlarge the size of the nose, or shape it because it seems to be the ideal and quick way to get a symmetrical nose shape. However, most patients wonder about the cost of rhinoplasty and how to get the best service for a lower price.
Getting the perfect rhinoplasty requires several basic factors in order for the operation to be done safely, regardless of the prices that can make you think a lot. Imagine that there are a lot of solutions to get a perfect process at a reasonable price, but this proposal is not feasible in countries with high income and expensive life.
That is why the majority of patients these days resort to countries such as Turkey to perform the operation, because the cost of rhinoplasty is highly competitive and the skill of plastic surgeons is considered as one of the best in the Europe and has a prestigious global ranking.
Based on this, if you want to get a rhinoplasty and the cost of the operation is high in your country, or you are seeking to find a plastic surgeon who meets your needs, going to a country like Turkey will be a very correct decision.
This special article will guide you about the techniques of rhinoplasty and all the prices of the operation in the best countries in the world in which it is performed, and how to choose a good service provider that suits your budget, as well as you will find an impartial comparison between prices in different regions.
How to compare the cost of rhinoplasty among the most popular countries
Comparing the cost of rhinoplasty in another country can be a challenge worth taking on, as you’ll need to consider exchange rate fluctuations when pricing your procedures. But on top of that, you should also calculate the total cost of completing your formalities abroad. So, in addition to the actual cost of the surgery, also inquire about the various other costs that you will be responsible for, such as:
- Consultation fees before and after the operation
- Costs of analysis work and laboratory procedures
- Medication costs before and after the operation
- Anesthesia costs
- Aftercare fees
- hospital costs
- Surgeon’s fee
- Miscellaneous fees such as bandages and others
Also because you will be traveling abroad, you will need to factor in the cost of getting to your destination, as well as the cost of accommodation and transportation while you are there. But imagine that we at the Turkish Way Center offer price packages that include everything you care about in terms of the cost of airline tickets, accommodation and transfers. Because what we care most about is the patient’s comfort, and we know very well that he will be busy and worried about the operation, so we try as much as possible to assume these responsibilities on his behalf and leave him fully focused on the operation.
Different countries will charge different amounts of money for the same procedure, and this can help you narrow your options down to the correct destination for your needs. For example, while a rhinoplasty in Turkey will be in the region of $2,000, it costs more than $5,000 in Hungary, and you can also find some doctors offering their services for more than $12,000 in the United States or Britain.
These prices are the average cost of rhinoplasty in each country, and may change at any time as the service market changes. It may also not include additional fees associated with the procedure, and may not include personal travel costs. However, some countries that are trying to attract patients provide integrated medical tourism services that include all costs, such as our Turkish Way Center.

The cost of the initial consultation before rhinoplasty
Everything you can find in the best centers in Turkey that offer free consultation before rhinoplasty. This consultation will determine your candidacy for the procedure and determine which technique will suit your treatment. The department of rhinoplasty and facial plastic surgery is supervised by Dr. Onder Tan, a world -renowned plastic surgeon who is now considered one of the most amazing surgeons who deliver amazing results to all the patients we accept in our center.
The doctor fully supervises the operation staff and performs the surgery personally. This is not all, but he also advises the medical staff about the patient’s suitability to perform any of the rhinoplasty techniques and determines all the technical and operational aspects of the operation.
Rhinoplasty is referred to as a procedure to create symmetry on the outer surface of the nose and regulate the internal breathing movement. This process requires resorting to a certified and experienced plastic surgeon in this field so that he can give a natural appearance to the nose as it has not been touched before. This process restores balance to the facial features and the nose, which plays a very important role in achieving this balance.
Rhinoplasty for a patient who intends to reduce, enlarge, or modify the angles of the nose in an outpatient clinic or an accredited center such as Turkish Way begins with a very important step, which is the initial consultation.
The doctor must study in detail all the problems that the patient suffers from in the respiratory system so that he can perform the required procedure without causing any defect in the nasal functions. The patient’s anatomical structure largely determines the success of this operation in accordance with the doctor’s skill, which is of importance, so that the procedure depends entirely on him.

Many clinics and beauty centers charge a large fee for the initial consultation, which in some places can reach more than $500. This value increases the total cost of rhinoplasty, which makes many beauty centers not include this value in the price details. However, there are many centers that are committed to transparency and provide a detailed description of all items of the price of rhinoplasty, which is a must-have ethical matter.
But you will also find some centers and hospitals that offer free initial consultations for patients, whether online or offline. This consultation mentions all the details of the operation and shows pictures before and after rhinoplasty so that the patient understands what he will look like after the operation.
At Turkiyaholidays Center, we offer our patients an initial online consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist, which provides the patient with an opportunity to check the suitability of the operation for his condition and view the details of the rhinoplasty price. It will not stop there, as soon as the patient arrives at the center, another free consultation takes place on the ground.
This consultation is concerned with anatomical pictures of the patient, presentation of a detailed treatment plan, and discussion of any concerns the patient has with the plastic surgeon and the assisting team.
Rhinoplasty prices vary according to the case
Rhinoplasty has the ability to adapt to each patient’s goals and needs, so the procedures themselves can vary widely based on individual needs. However, it generally starts with the same step which is anesthesia, but there are two types of anesthesia methods available for rhinoplasty which are general anesthesia or intravenous sedation.
General anesthesia is given by an anesthetic mask or through an intravenous injection, and will put you completely asleep until the procedure is completed. As for intravenous anesthesia with local, it is different as your doctor will first numb your face with local anesthesia and then give you a strong sedative through an IV line, which will make you feel light sleep, and you may not remember many events.
The cost of closed rhinoplasty
The closed rhinoplasty method derives its name from the fact that all surgical reshaping procedures are done inside the nose, without any visible incisions appearing on the face. Incisions are made along the inside of each opening, called marginal incisions, and are made in an arc that follows the curve of the cartilage. Then, through the nostril, another incision is made between the underlying bony cartilage and the upper lateral cartilages called the interosseous incision. Through these incisions, both the tip and bridge of the nose can be reshaped without external scars.
In the case of limb reshaping or structural rhinoplasty, the surgeon makes borderline incisions and intercostal incisions. Once the procedure is completed, the underlying cartilage can be pulled out of the nostril and reshaped. A great deal of nose tip shaping can be achieved with the closed approach, especially if the surgeon has experience with the technique.
In the case of bridge reshaping, the intercellular incision is the most important because it allows access to the middle and upper parts of the bridge of the nose. Through this incision, the skin of the nose is lifted from the underlying cartilage and bone to allow for reshaping. Once this is done, a spacer is placed to keep the skin elevated while the surgeon treats the bone and cartilage. This can be done through both nostrils. The closed approach is very successful in reducing the height of the nasal eyelid. It is used in osteotomy operations, in which the nasal bones are carefully and skillfully broken in order to narrow or straighten the bridge.
The closed technique can produce very successful results, but most surgeons agree that this method is more difficult because they can’t see what they’re doing as well. The surgeon basically operates blindly and this is not impossible, but it is certainly difficult. Choosing a surgeon experienced in this technique to get the best results is of course more expensive than the open technique. Therefore, most cosmetic centers charge more for closed rhinoplasty. At the Turkish Way Center, the type of procedure does not matter as long as the patient’s condition allows. However, in most cases, closed rhinoplasty is about 30% more expensive than open rhinoplasty.
The cost of open or external rhinoplasty
The open, or external, approach to rhinoplasty reaches the inside of the nose via a small inverted V-shaped incision across the bridge that connects the nostrils. With the addition of some internal slits, the nose skin can be completely folded back, almost like the hood of a car.
This gives the surgeon a much better view of the internal structures of your nose. With this expanded view, the surgeon can assess almost the entire nasal framework. This allows it to be as symmetrical as possible in the procedure, as the entire nose can be visualized at once, rather than with separate incisions as in the closed technique.
Once the nasal cartilage is exposed, the surgeon can reconstruct the entire area by reduction, reduction, reshaping and suturing. Cartilage grafts from other parts of your body may also be used to maintain the shape and appearance of your nose. Results tend to be more predictable this way. However, an important downside is the prolonged swelling of the nose. Although this technique costs less than the closed nose technique, it provides more predictable results due to the clarity of vision in front of the doctor’s eyes. Mostly, the cost of closed rhinoplasty is lower than that of open rhinoplasty, because the effort required by the doctor is less.
The cost of correcting the nasal septum
It is a special surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated nasal septum. The septum is the structure of bone and cartilage that separates your nose and extends to the center of your nose. When it shifts to one side or the other it can narrow the nostril and cause breathing problems. During rhinoplasty, your septum is straightened and repositioned at the center of the nose. This should correct any airway and breathing problems and will often treat chronic snoring.
This is achieved by lifting the lining of both sides of the septum through small incisions inside the nose. Through these small incisions, the surgeon can remove part of the septum, and realign it so that it is straight. Once the septum is in place, nasal splints may be placed inside the nose to aid healing, and the lining of each side of the septum is replaced. Threading may be used to help the lining heal properly. The cost of correcting the nasal septum is less than the complete rhinoplasty, and it can be performed in one day, depending on the patient’s condition.
| Technology | lower cost | higher cost | Duration of stay |
| Closed rhinoplasty | $2,400 | $5,000 | 3 days |
| Open rhinoplasty | 2000 dollars | $4,000 | 4 days |
| Correction of the nasal septum | $1,800 | $2,800 | tow days |
| Nose augmentation | $2,200 | $3,600 | 3 days |
Cost of revision rhinoplasty
The procedure for rhinoplasty is different for everyone and problems can occur in any area of the nose, including the upper third, middle third, or tip of the nose. Your secondary rhinoplasty should be tailored to address any problems arising from the first surgery.
Secondary rhinoplasty can be performed with local anesthesia or general anesthesia. The surgery may take longer than the initial rhinoplasty, and the procedure may take up to four hours. In contrast, primary rhinoplasty takes 1 to 2 hours.
During revision rhinoplasty, the goal is to restore both structure and function. In some cases, the surgeon may try to re-establish symmetry by adding or removing cartilage. If needed, additional cartilage can be taken from the nasal septum, ear, or one of the ribs. In general, it’s easier to fix problems when not enough cartilage is removed during the initial surgery, because the surgeon can go back and take away more cartilage. Often, revision rhinoplasty involves adding cartilage to open up the airway or to re-shape and proportion.
In rhinoplasty, incisions can be made on the inside of the nose or closed rhinoplasty, or on the underside of the nose between the nostrils in open rhinoplasty. Separated rhinoplasty has less traumatic properties to the tissues. Whereas the surgeon only exposes the areas that need correction, whereas the open approach involves a broader dissection and more separation and reattachment of the supporting structures.
The closed approach may be safer if you have scar tissue from previous nose surgeries, but some surgeons prefer the open approach for the obvious exposure it offers, or to better understand and visualize complex cases. Don’t choose a surgeon because he performs a specific technique and it’s best to look for someone who explains the procedure well and logically, and who you ultimately trust.
The cost of secondary rhinoplasty may be greater than the primary rhinoplasty, as it imposes on the doctor many problems that have been previously tampered with. Therefore, the doctor will be forced to follow certain and limited steps that cannot be deviated from. In some cases, secondary rhinoplasty is less expensive than the primary operation because it addresses some minor problems that do not require much effort by the surgeon.
On average, you will have to expect a cost that starts from $1,500 and may go up to $4,000, depending on the condition you suffer from. The Turkish Way Center provides revision rhinoplasty at very reduced costs to all patients from the Middle East. It is possible to perform the operation at a lower cost if the patient is in the initial operation at the center.
