How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost in London?
The cost of rhinoplasty in London ranges from approximately £12,000 to £14,000.
Pricing can vary depending on the complexity of your case, the type of rhinoplasty performed, and whether it is your first surgery or a revision. As a highly experienced Consultant Plastic Surgeon, Mr William Townley is committed to providing transparent, upfront costs while delivering exceptional, personalised care tailored to each patient’s needs.
What Is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty – commonly referred to as a nose job – is a surgical procedure designed to reshape, refine, or reconstruct the nose. It can address a variety of concerns, from altering the size or profile for improved facial harmony, to correcting structural irregularities that may cause breathing difficulties.
Rhinoplasty can involve modifying the bone, cartilage, and soft tissues of the nose, and is often tailored to achieve both aesthetic and functional improvements. For some patients, the goal is purely cosmetic; for others, surgery may also improve airflow by correcting internal nasal structures.
Mr Townley’s approach to rhinoplasty is meticulous and individualised. He combines advanced surgical techniques with a deep understanding of facial proportions, ensuring results that look natural and complement your other features. Whether performed as a primary procedure or to refine the results of previous surgery, rhinoplasty requires skill, precision, and a thorough understanding of nasal and facial anatomy.
What Types of Rhinoplasty Are Available?
Mr Townley is proficient in several rhinoplasty techniques, each with its own benefits and considerations. The most suitable option for you will depend on your anatomy, your goals, and whether you have had nasal surgery before.
Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is an innovative, state-of-the-art technique that uses energy rather than a hammer and chisel to sculpt nasal bones. Tip refinements are also a key part of any rhinoplasty procedure – and, in fact, require the most finesse – but are not performed with the ultrasonic tool, which is exclusively for bone manipulation. This sophisticated strategy often results in:
- Smoother, more controlled contouring
- Reduced tissue trauma
- Less post-operative bruising and swelling
- Potentially faster recovery
At our practice, pricing for ultrasonic rhinoplasty starts at £12,000.
Septorhinoplasty
A septorhinoplasty aims to address both cosmetic and functional concerns. In addition to reshaping the external appearance of the nose, it can correct a deviated septum or other breathing issues. It is also performed with an ultrasonic technique for bone reshaping and is broadly the same procedure as an “ultrasonic rhinoplasty.” The key difference is that the term “septrorhinoplasty” is reserved for patients with a history of traumatic nasal fractures or severe developmental septal deformities.
Benefits of septorhinoplasty can include:
- Improved nasal symmetry and balance
- Smoother nasal contours
- Better breathing through corrected airflow pathways
Because this procedure is designed to improve both form and function, it is often more comprehensive than a purely cosmetic rhinoplasty. At Mr Townley’s London practice, pricing for septorhinoplasty generally begins at £13,000.
Revision Rhinoplasty
Also known as “secondary rhinoplasty, ” revision rhinoplasty is performed to correct or refine the results of previous nasal surgery. This can involve:
- Correcting structural irregularities
- Addressing residual asymmetry
- Restoring or improving nasal function
- Refining aesthetic results for a more natural appearance
Revision procedures are usually more complex, as scar tissue, altered anatomy, or loss of structural support from prior surgery can make reshaping more challenging. For this reason, it is crucial to choose a surgeon with extensive experience in revision cases.
Moreover, the cost of revision rhinoplasty at our practice typically starts at £14,000. If a rib graft is needed, this will be £2,500 extra.
Factors that Can Influence Rhinoplasty Cost
When considering rhinoplasty, understanding the factors behind pricing can help you make an informed decision. At our London clinic, costs are carefully structured to reflect the expertise of our Consultant Plastic Surgeon, the advanced techniques utilised, and the premium patient experience we deliver.
- Surgeon’s expertise: Rhinoplasty is one of the most technically demanding plastic surgery procedures. Because it can be a life-changing surgery, it is wise to choose a Consultant Plastic Surgeon with years of training and experience.
- Anaesthesia, surgical theatre, and facilities: Costs cover general anaesthesia, operating theatre fees, and any necessary aftercare facilities.
- Consultation and pre-operative planning: Your treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation, facial analysis, and computer simulated imaging to visualise potential results. This meticulous planning stage is essential to achieving a tailored, natural-looking outcome.
- Complementary procedures: In many cases, Mr Townley is able to combine rhinoplasty with other surgical options, such as facelift or eyelid surgery. That said, the incorporation of additional procedures can result in a more costly experience.
- Post-operative care and follow-up: With Mr Townley, your care doesn’t end in theatre. Pricing includes post-surgery follow-up, removal of dressings or splints, and personalised guidance to support your healing journey.
