Functional
Rhinoplasty in California
This plastic surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, though some procedures may be done under local anesthesia with sedation. Our anesthesiology team delivers medications through an IV line to ensure the patient remains unconscious and pain-free.
Enlarged turbinates are addressed through various techniques, including:
Dr. Zarrabi carefully reduces the size of the turbinates while preserving their essential functions of warming and humidifying inhaled air.
The cost of functional rhinoplasty in California ranges from $5,000 to $20,000, depending on the complexity of the procedure and the surgeon’s expertise. This price typically includes facility fees, anesthesia expenses, and post-operative care. Unlike cosmetic rhinoplasty, functional nose surgery may be partially covered by insurance if it is deemed medically necessary to address breathing problems. Other factors that shape the final cost include the required techniques, the surgeon’s location within California (with higher prices generally found in major metropolitan areas like Los Angeles and San Francisco), and whether any additional procedures are performed simultaneously.
Dr. Zarrabi provides accurate price quotes during the initial rhinoplasty consultation in our practice in Corona Del Mar. Flexible financing options, such as CareCredit and Cherry, are available.
