Best Rhinoplasty (Nose Job) Surgeons in Dubai

What is rhinoplasty, or nose job?

Rhinoplasty, or commonly known as nose job, is done to change the shape of the nose. It is one of the most popular types of cosmetic surgery done in the UAE. A study showed that rhinoplasty sits at no. 2 in its popularity in the UAE, only next to liposuction. 

Rhinoplasty can change your nose size or width; the position of the nostrils; nose profile with visible humps or depressions on the bridge; nasal tip that is enlarged or bulbous, drooping, upturned or hooked; nostrils that are large, wide or upturned; or nasal asymmetry.

What are different types of rhinoplasty?

Two major types are open and closed rhinoplasty. Open rhinoplasty involves making an incision on the fleshy column between the nostrils. As this method allows the surgeon to have easier access and better visibility to the surgery site, it is recommended for revision rhinoplasty to correct previous errors or for cases where structural changes are required. Whereas closed rhinoplasty accesses the surgery site from within the nostril. It does not make a visible external scar and, as a less invasive type, requires less time for recovery. This method is recommended for minor corrections and reshaping cases. 

How to find the right rhinoplasty?

• Finding the right surgeon(s) determines everything

A surgery result does not depend on the reputation of a clinic. Ultimately, it is the expertise of the surgeon that determines the outcome. Nothing can replace the skillful hands of a surgeon who has deep insight into the human body and a patient’s aspiration. 

• Research the credentials, portfolio, and other patients’ reviews of the surgeon(s)

It is difficult for a patient to evaluate the skill of a surgeon. However, there are some standard checklists you should apply to choose the right surgeon. 

First, they should be certified (plastic) surgeons from trustworthy institutions. 
Second, check if they have excellently performed surgery for a similar case as yours. You may check their portfolio online or get it upon request to the clinic. 
Third, search up what other patients say about the surgeon that you shortlisted. Platforms like DrFive.com could be a good starting point for your research. 

• Know your budget and schedule

Most plastic surgeries are elective treatments. In other words, they will not be covered by your health insurance and you need to pay for the entire treatment. Depending on a few factors we will explain below, there are quite a big differences in the treatment costs and you need to ensure that treatments from your shortlisted providers are within your budget.

Don’t forget to determine when you want to get the surgery prior to contacting clinics. Most sought-after plastic surgeons have a very tight schedule and the next available slots may only open up far beyond your availability. Having a clear timeline can prevent unnecessary last minute surprises.

What are rhinoplasty prices in Dubai?

What are the driving factors for the different prices of rhinoplasty in Dubai? 

• Qualifications of the practitioner

Medical groups in Dubai are diverse and numerous. Physicians come from different schools of thought and each gives their own perspective on the best treatment options. Some of these doctors are board certified from the UK, Europe or USA, while others have regional qualifications. All of whom possess a knowledge base with a specific set of training and practical knowledge.

• Brand awareness of the clinic

Treatments from more reputable hospitals will usually be costlier than clinics not widely known to people. Institutions make huge investments to build a trusted brand and we, as the end-consumers, are expected to, in return, pay a premium for that brand. Certain local clinics in Dubai have established a history of providing excellent care to people, and in turn, are more expensive than new entrants in the cosmetic treatment field. 

• Experience of the practitioner

It is quite understandable that you pay more for a service from a more experienced practitioner. For cosmetic procedures, you will usually need to pay more to get treatment from consultants rather than specialists, GPs and other physicians, as they have more expertise and experience in the field.
