Rating: 4.9 (177 reviews)

Living with a nose that doesn’t suit your face can be a heavy burden, as it can overshadow the rest of your features and greatly detract from your self-confidence. If you feel that you have a nose you’d prefer to hide or functional breathing problems are robbing you of sleep, rhinoplasty might be the procedure for you. Often called a surgery of millimeters, rhinoplasty or a nose job is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nasal bridge, tip, or nostrils to provide both functional and cosmetic benefits.

What Are the Benefits of Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is designed to alter the shape and appearance of the nose to the patient’s specifications. This highly nuanced procedure provides different benefits for each patient, depending on their goals. Patients seek improvement to the tip and the bridge, often both in one procedure. The benefits of rhinoplasty in Las Vegas include:

Straightening a crooked nose (bridge and/or tip)
A smaller nose
Improved nasal symmetry
A reduced hump on the bridge
A more narrow and defined nasal tip
Improved breathing with septoplasty
Enhanced facial symmetry and balance

Because the nose is such a central feature of the face, a large or crooked nose is hard to ignore, often dominating the other facial features. After rhinoplasty, Dr. Sina’s patients experience a more harmonious facial appearance, allowing their other features to shine alongside their improved, better-suited nose.

Am I a Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is considered an elective cosmetic surgery, so patients seeking this procedure must be in good health and have reasonable expectations for their results. Patients must also have a healthy self-image before undergoing this procedure. As mentioned, the nose is a central feature of the face, and the slightest changes affect one's whole appearance. Patients who may be suffering from body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), which is categorized as severe anxiety and depression related to one's appearance, are not candidates for cosmetic procedures. In addition to this, candidates for a rhinoplasty:

Have a clear, realistic vision for their nose improvements
Understand the risks and benefits of the procedure
Are in good health
Are nonsmokers or are willing to quit

A consultation with Dr. Sina is essential in determining if you are a good candidate for a nose job in Las Vegas. To schedule an appointment, call Vegas Facial Plastics today or fill out our contact form.

What Are My Rhinoplasty Options?

Rhinoplasty may be cosmetic, functional, ethnic, or revision-based. While many patients undergo cosmetic or functional rhinoplasty as a first procedure, ethnic rhinoplasty focuses on preserving individual characteristics, and revision rhinoplasty addresses concerns from previous nose surgery.

Cosmetic Rhinoplasty

As the most popular form of cosmetic nose surgery, this procedure focuses purely on aesthetic enhancements, such as refining a wide nasal tip, smoothing a dorsal hump, or straightening a crooked bridge. Some patients may have a crooked or misshapen nose that they wish to straighten. More commonly, patients want to reduce the size of their nose, seeking treatment for the bridge, tip, or nostrils.

Functional Rhinoplasty

Functional rhinoplasty aims to improve the patient’s breathing, either by straightening a deviated nasal septum (the internal wall of cartilage and bone dividing your nasal passages), correcting nasal valve collapse, or by reducing turbinate tissue, which removes tissue from the internal nasal cavity to allow more airflow. It is possible for patients with functional issues to include cosmetic improvements in the same procedure.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty

Ethnic rhinoplasty is designed to refine the nose without compromising your natural features or cultural identity. Each procedure is thoughtfully planned to improve harmony and proportion while maintaining strength, support, and authenticity. Treatment may be cosmetic, functional, or a combination of both.

Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision rhinoplasty is designed for patients who are unhappy with the outcome of a previous nose surgery. Each rhinoplasty procedure is carefully planned to refine appearance, support breathing, and rebuild nasal structure.

Dr. Sina will never try to convince a patient to undergo any procedure, as he believes his role is to provide professional advice and care, not to sway a patient’s decisions. Choosing Dr. Sina for rhinoplasty means you will receive the highest level of care and surgical precision, along with control over your choices and results.

Schedule A Consultation

Your Nose Surgery Consultation

Your rhinoplasty consultation is a critical step in the surgical process. During this visit, you’ll discuss your goals with Dr. Sina, including whether your concerns are cosmetic, functional, or both. Rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all vision, Dr. Sina focuses on what is realistically achievable and explains expected outcomes, along with the risks and benefits of surgery.

A thorough nasal examination is performed, including internal structures such as the septum and turbinates. Another important component of the rhinoplasty consultation is to take high-quality medical photographs and use nasal morphing software to mimic what the patient’s desired changes would look like and to make sure that the patient and surgeon are on the exact same page. The morphed images are used as a blueprint during surgery to make sure that the surgical plan is followed precisely.

Equally important, the consultation is an educational experience. Be sure to be honest with Dr. Sina; he will be equally honest with you. If you agree that this procedure is ideal for you, he will walk you through the surgical plan and the recovery period before providing you with a cost estimate.

How Is Rhinoplasty Performed?

Each rhinoplasty surgery will be uniquely planned to meet the patient’s specific goals as determined and set by the patient and Dr. Sina during the consultation. Dr. Sina does not use a generalized, cookie-cutter treatment plan that makes everyone’s nose look the same.

On the day of surgery, Dr. Sina will meet with his patients prior to surgery to review the surgical plan, including the morphed photos, for the final time. This step ensures that he and his patients are on the exact same page prior to surgery. Dr. Sina prefers to perform rhinoplasty surgery using general anesthesia and an open rhinoplasty technique.

In an open rhinoplasty, a small incision is made across the skin between the nostrils (the columella), allowing Dr. Sina to gain the best view of the nasal anatomy.
The next step is typically a septoplasty, where breathing issues are corrected, and vital cartilage is harvested for the cosmetic portion of the rhinoplasty.
Next, Dr. Sina begins reshaping the nose. Bone and cartilage may be reduced, reshaped, or repositioned to help achieve the patient’s cosmetic goals. The cartilage harvested during the previous step is the primary source for the cartilage grafts needed to reshape and support the nose during rhinoplasty.
Once Dr. Sina is satisfied with the on-the-table result of the rhinoplasty, he carefully closes the incisions and casts the nose.

What Is Rhinoplasty Recovery Like?

After your nose job in Las Vegas with Dr. Sina, your nose will have a nasal splint on it, which helps support your healing nose and maintain its new shape. There will be both dissolvable sutures (inside the nose) and non-dissolvable sutures (columella) in place. The nasal splint and the non-dissolvable sutures are removed a week after surgery. Most patients will not need nasal packing, but in some cases where light packing is used, it is removed the next day.

Dr. Sina will provide you with specific instructions—be sure to follow these as closely as possible. With advances in surgical technique and Dr. Sina’s expert hand, most rhinoplasty patients have minimal bruising, even around the eyes. You should be able to return to work after about a week, with restrictions on strenuous exercise for up to three weeks.

When Will I See My Rhinoplasty Results?

Generally speaking, the final results of a primary rhinoplasty are determined at 12 months. However, most people appreciate an improvement in the appearance of their nose as early as one week when the cast is removed. Nearly all patients return to school or work within one week. The typical recovery timeline is approximately:

70% healed at one month
80% healed at three months
90% healed at six months
99% healed at one year

It is important to remember that patients’ noses will look wonderful much earlier than the one-year mark. Most of Dr. Sina’s “after pictures” for rhinoplasty are taken at three months.

Rhinoplasty patients are some of the happiest patients—the results are well worth the wait. After your rhinoplasty with Dr. Sina, experience the confidence and joy of looking in the mirror and loving what you see.

How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost in Las Vegas?

The cost of rhinoplasty varies, reflecting differences in surgical technique, the specifics of the surgical plan, and the surgeon’s experience. Premium plastic surgeons charge more for their services because they can reliably deliver more natural-looking and effective results with a lower risk of a disappointing outcome. With an experienced specialist, you are paying for high-end pre- and postoperative care, the advice and technique of an expert surgeon, and the peace of mind that your treatment is in the best hands. Once you meet with Dr. Sina for your comprehensive rhinoplasty consultation, he will create a custom surgical plan that outlines the techniques used in your nose procedure and provide you with an accurate cost estimate.

To make your procedure manageable, Vegas Facial Plastics offers flexible healthcare financing options (such as Cherry®). During your consultation, our patient coordinator will provide an itemized quote covering surgeon fees, facility fees, and anesthesia with clear monthly payment plans.

What Our Patients Are Saying

I saw Dr. Sina in August 2025 for a rhinoplasty, and I couldn’t have had a better experience. The day of my surgery couldn’t have gone better, the staff working at the surgery center were so sweet and helpful, Dr. Sina is the absolute best and I am so glad he was my surgeon. The surgery couldn’t have gone better and my healing process was so easy. When I got my cast removed I started crying because it was exactly what I wanted. I couldn’t be happier with my new nose

I.D.

I went to see Dr. Sina after I broke my nose. Since I had previously had a septoplasty, I knew this was going to be a complicated surgery. After meeting with Dr. Sina, I knew he was the right person to do the job. He explained to me what he could do and what I could expect. He answered all my questions and made me feel so comfortable. Even the office staff was amazing. I felt like a VIP from the moment I called the office to make an appt. Needless to say, I am so happy with the results. My nose looks better that I could have even expected!

E.O.

My nose looks so natural and harmonious with the rest of my features, and my entire experience was smooth and seamless. I was very impressed by Dr. Sina’s personable and attentive approach. I could tell he’s truly passionate about his work and dedicated to delivering the best possible results. He listened carefully, understood exactly what I wanted, and achieved the look that feels beautifully balanced and true to me.

Rhinoplasty FAQs

What’s the best age to get rhinoplasty?

There’s no one “perfect” age, it depends more on physical development and personal readiness than a specific number. For younger patients, the nose should be fully developed before surgery, which is typically around age 15–17 for girls and 16–18 for boys. Many adults choose rhinoplasty later in life as well, either to refine the nose’s shape, address breathing concerns, or counteract changes that come with aging.

Can rhinoplasty affect how my voice sounds?

Rarely, minor changes in vocal resonance can occur, especially if internal nasal structures are altered. This is usually only noticeable to the patient or people very familiar with their voice.

Can I bring reference photos of noses I like?

Yes, photos help communicate your aesthetic goals, and then Dr. Sina will tailor the design to your facial proportions rather than duplicating another person’s features.

How do surgeons prevent a “pinched” or over-operated look?

Preserving structural support and avoiding excessive cartilage removal are key. Dr. Sina approaches rhinoplasty with a focus on structural support, prioritizing reinforcement over excessive reduction.

Can I combine rhinoplasty with other facial surgeries?

Yes. Many patients combine rhinoplasty with chin augmentation, eyelid surgery, or a facelift to achieve balanced facial harmony in one surgical session, which can also mean a single recovery period.

Is nonsurgical rhinoplasty a good trial before surgery?

Yes, dermal filler “liquid nose jobs” can simulate certain changes (like smoothing a bump) temporarily, helping patients visualize potential results before committing to nose surgery.
