Dr. Ali R. Abtahi is a highly skilled surgeon with an extensive training background in plastic and reconstructive surgery, comprehensive aesthetic surgery, and general surgery. His astute attention to detail has been refined through both military service as well as his decade-long commitment to training alongside experts in the surgical arts. Through his artistic vision and sincere passion for plastic surgery of the utmost quality, Dr. Abtahi is dedicated to delivering an elite, personalized experience.

He works one-on-one with patients to develop an individualized treatment plan specific to their unique aesthetic goals. He strives to create elegant results that both he and the patient can be mutually proud of and refuses to compromise his ethical standards to offer unnecessary, ineffective, or substandard surgical or non-surgical procedures.

Rhinoplasty surgery entails multiple parts, and the procedural details depend on the patient’s overall aesthetic goals. The two main components addressed during each surgery are the following:

Functional (how well the nose works):
Sometimes, patients pursue rhinoplasty because of difficulty breathing through their nose. If this is the case, Dr. Abtahi can address obstructions in the airway passage through each nostril. This may include widening an area called the internal nasal valve, resecting portions of the turbinates, or in some instances, correcting a deviated septum.

Aesthetic (how the nose appears):
In many instances, patients may desire a more refined appearance to their nose. For example, patients will often say they don’t like the appearance of the dorsal hump, which is essentially where the bridge of the nose is more prominent than the tip of the nose. If this is the case, Dr. Abtahi can address this and other aesthetic components at the time of surgery.

Any rhinoplasty procedure can address functional issues, aesthetic issues, or both, depending on the reason that the patient has come to our office.

Dr. Abtahi believes the true power of plastic surgery lies in its all-encompassing transformation—one that ignites the spirit, renews self-confidence, and unlocks a natural beauty that radiates from the inside out.

Approximately 70 to 90% of Dr. Abtahi’s patients are candidates for open rhinoplasty. This means that he will make a cut on the underside of the nose in an area called the columellar waist. Once the incision heals, the scar is imperceptible and this allows the surgeon full access to the underlying cartilage and bones of the nose.

10 to 30% of patients may be candidates for closed rhinoplasty, which means the operation can be performed through hidden incisions made inside of the nose. Closed rhinoplasty surgery may be appropriate for a smaller subset of patients which do not require extensive reshaping of their nasal dorsum and tip.

Enhancing facial harmony requires evaluation of the face in several angles. Adding or subtracting volume from one area may affect the balance of surrounding features. For the nose, this balance is achieved with the chin. Chin augmentation is sometimes required for individuals who may have disproportion between the nose and chin, particularly in the side profile. If the chin is too prominent or too far forward, it will make the nose look too short, and vice versa. Another feature is the appearance of the nose with smiling, specifically a plunging tip or significant widening of the nostrils. In these instances, a muscle called the Depressor Septi Nasi (DSN) can be divided to prevent a plunging tip and curling of the lip. The nostril width can also be decreased and dynamic muscles divided to prevent excessive widening with smiling. At the level of the eyebrows, the area between the eyes called the Radix, may also be underdeveloped, contributing to an exaggerated appearance of a dorsal hump. This area can either be filled with cartilage or soft tissue during surgery, and is often the target for filler treatments in “Liquid Rhinoplasty”.

Functional rhinoplasty can be covered by insurance in some cases. However, in very few instances, aesthetic rhinoplasty MAY be covered, most frequently for congenital disorders such as cleft palates that affect nasal appearance. 

Every nose is different and providing a baseline cost is very challenging. Before determing price, Dr. Abtahi really values the opportunity to meet and evaluate his patients to determine their specific goals, review their medical history, and establish a unique plan that will provide the best results. Consults can be conducted in the office or virtually, with more accurate prices provided after the consultation as estimates can vary wideley based on anticipated time in the operating room, the operating room facility costs, and other factors such as the use of cadaveric rib graft. Since procedures are catered to each patient, the price can vary from $10,000 total fees to as high as $30,000 or more.

In addition to the cosmetic component, rhinoplasty can drastically improve the functional airflow through the nose, leading to better breathing. The procedure can also significantly enhance your self-perception and improve self-confidence when taking photos, doing social media, or communicating with others via video chat such as zoom or facetime.

Rhinoplasty results should last a lifetime!
