QUESTION: WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST OF A NOSE JOB?
There are a number of specific considerations which determine the cost of rhinoplasty, the cost of facelift surgery, or any other cosmetic procedure.
Generally speaking, prices will vary based on geographical region similar to housing prices. The operational costs of an office in Beverly Hills are greater than a similar office in South Dakota, and that difference will be reflected in the costs of cosmetic nose surgery.
The cost of rhinoplasty is also dependent on the unique characteristics of a patients nose as well as the complexity of the procedure. A revision surgery is significantly more challenging and will consequently cost more.
In addition, every surgeon will charge a little bit differently based on expertise, availability and reputation.
Simply looking at national averages may or may not be reflective of an estimate given to you in your specific geographic region. That being said, the American Society of Plastic Surgery collects and reports data. In 2010, the national average cost for a rhinoplasty was $4,306.

It is important to remember that the cheapest option is frequently not the best deal. You only get one nose, you should only trust it to a specialist.
