Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgery to change the shape of your nose. It can be performed for functional or cosmetic reasons, or a combination of both. It is a complex procedure that should only be carried out by an experienced surgeon. Dr Jeremy Hunt has been performing rhinoplasties in Sydney for over 20 years and has helped many people achieve the nose of their dreams. Whether you need to reduce your nasal hump, alter the nose bridge, change the nose tip or adjust the size of your nostrils, he can help you get the results you want.
What type of doctor is best for rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasties are performed under general anaesthesia at a fully accredited private hospital. Generally, they take three to four hours to perform and patients are fine to go home the same day. Before the operation, you will have a consultation with your surgeon to discuss your goals and expectations. This is a relaxed, informative discussion where you can ask questions. You should expect to have more than one consultation before deciding to undergo Open Rhinoplasty surgery.
You should also note that the cost of rhinoplasty can vary depending on your surgeon’s experience and training. Surgeons who perform a more basic rhinoplasty without carefully reconstructing the natural supports of your nose will be cheaper, but their results may not last as long or look less “natural.” In contrast, surgeons with extensive experience in performing rhinoplasty surgeries are likely to charge higher rates for their services.
