Introduction
In general, nose surgery refers to rhinoplasty, which can be divided into four types: hyaluronic acid injection rhinoplasty, with a reference price of 2,000–8,000 yuan per session; autologous fat grafting rhinoplasty, with a reference price of 8,000–40,000 yuan per session; cartilage rhinoplasty, with a reference price of 8,000–30,000 yuan per session; and implant rhinoplasty, with a reference price of 5,000–50,000 yuan per session.

In general, rhinoplasty refers to nose augmentation surgery, which can be divided into four surgical methods, with corresponding prices as follows: hyaluronic acid injection rhinoplasty, reference price 2,000–8,000 yuan per session; autologous fat grafting rhinoplasty, reference price 8,000–40,000 yuan per session; cartilage rhinoplasty, reference price 8,000–30,000 yuan per session; and implant rhinoplasty, reference price 5,000–50,000 yuan per session. Factors influencing the cost of rhinoplasty include the patient’s individual conditions, surgical design, and choice of augmentation materials.

Types of rhinoplasty procedures and reference prices:

Procedure Name

Hyaluronic Acid Injection Rhinoplasty

Autologous Fat Grafting Rhinoplasty

Cartilage Rhinoplasty

Implant Rhinoplasty

Reference Price

2,000–8,000 yuan/session

8,000–40,000 yuan/session

Principle

Injecting hyaluronic acid into the nose to improve nasal shape and increase bridge height

Harvesting fat from the patient's own body, processing it, and injecting it into the nose to improve nasal contour and elevate the nasal bridge

Transplanting autologous cartilage to the nose to increase nasal height and refine nasal shape

Implanting artificial materials such as silicone or expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) to shape the nose

Suitable Candidates

Individuals with a flat nasal bridge or lack of facial definition

Those sensitive to pain or preferring to use their own tissue for augmentation

Individuals seeking natural tissue augmentation with high expectations for surgical outcomes

Suitable for various nasal shapes and concerns

Factors affecting the cost:

1. Patient's individual conditions
The patient’s nasal structure, skin condition, and aesthetic goals influence the surgical plan and complexity, thereby affecting the cost. Patients with complex nasal anatomy or requiring higher precision may incur higher surgical fees.

2. Surgical design
Experienced plastic surgeons will create a personalized and precise surgical plan based on the patient’s facial features. Different surgical approaches vary in complexity and duration, thus impacting the overall cost.

3. Augmentation materials
The type of material used significantly affects the price. Common materials include silicone, ePTFE, hyaluronic acid, and autologous cartilage. Differences in quality, origin, and performance lead to price variations. Generally, imported materials are more expensive.

It is recommended to visit a reputable medical facility and choose the most suitable method under professional medical advice.
