  • Dr. Nassif---my nose is very "Asian-like" in the sense that it lacks a bridge (flat nose) and it's bulbous. If you could visit the picture on my channel it could give you some idea... but I literally have no bridge on my nose and I hate it. I would also like my nostrils a bit more narrowed and I would like a slight tip to my nose as well. Do you get a lot of Asian clients with these requests? I'm not Asian but my nose is extremely flat. Also, do you offer financing options?

  • @VictoriaCALL911

    Hello,

    Asian patients typically request augmentation of the nasal dorsum, refinement of the tip while increasing projection and rotation, and narrowing of the nasal bridge. Other ethnicities may also share some of these desires, but ultimately the surgery is tailored to the individual. The goal with the surgery is to enhance one’s own natural features, and will be customized to meet the patient’s needs. We currently use a company called Medicus for financing.

  • Hello doctor do you know of any good doctors like you in Houston tx?? Thaand you and I appreciate your response .:)

  • @banginplaymate Dr. Russell Kridel is excellent. Thanks for the message, and best of luck!

  • Dr.Nassif,

    I have a GIANT african amercan nose. I've been teased all my life for it and I feel like cutting my nose off myself, it's so ugly. How much would a surgery cost for me to have a regular nose? Would I need to have multiple surgeries?

  • @awsomepeep Hello,

    The cost of a primary rhinoplasty ranges from $10,000-$15,000. The goal is to perform one surgery. Everyone heals differently, and in some cases, a minor revision may be necessary to obtain the best possible result. (Around 2%-3% of my patients).This is usually due to an issue with healing. Thank you for the message, and please feel free to send any photos to my office and I would be happy to evaluate them for you.

    Dr. Nassif

  • Dr. Nassif, I have a deviated septum and my nose has big bump and a bulbous base (I got into a fight as a child and as an adult, it kinda grew). If I were to get rhinoplasty, it'd be more for medical reason over cosmetic reasons...however...I would definitely try to have my nose shaped to its original shape. From what your experience, would insurance cover the cosmetic aspect of it or just the medical part? Thank you in advance :)

  • How much does it cost for rhinoplasty? I am 15 years old an unhappy with my nose profile. please let me know ASAP cheers.

  • Thank you :)

  • @banginplaymate I'm in Houston too! I've been looking around for a surgeon I can trust.

  • This girl's nose looked fine before!!! WTF did she do this???
