How much does garlic-shaped nose rhinoplasty cost?
Alar base reduction, nasal tip plasty, and comprehensive rhinoplasty are the three main surgical approaches for bulbous nose correction, with corresponding prices as follows: alar base reduction costs 3,000–10,000 yuan per session; nasal tip plasty costs 5,000–15,000 yuan per session; and comprehensive rhinoplasty ranges from 10,000 to 30,000 yuan per session. Factors influencing the cost of bulbous nose correction include implant materials, surgeon experience, and regional differences.

Factors affecting cost:
1. Implant material: If implants are used during bulbous nose correction to augment the nasal bridge or support the tip, differences in material costs will affect the total surgery price.
2. Surgeon experience: Surgeons with greater experience and higher reputation typically charge more than less experienced practitioners.
3. Regional differences: In first-tier cities, where economic development, living costs, and availability of medical resources are higher, the cost of bulbous nose correction is generally higher compared to second- and third-tier cities.
Prior to undergoing bulbous nose correction, patients should undergo a thorough medical evaluation to ensure they are healthy enough for surgery. It is essential to have detailed discussions with the surgeon about the surgical plan and expected outcomes. After surgery, strictly follow post-operative instructions, maintain wound cleanliness, and seek prompt medical attention if symptoms such as infection, bleeding, swelling, or scar formation occur.
