Duration
3 hours
Dr. Gary Linkov performs both open and closed rhinoplasty at City Facial Plastics, tailoring technique to each patient's anatomy and goals. Open rhinoplasty uses a small columellar incision for complex reshaping cases, while the closed endonasal approach leaves no visible scarring. Functional rhinoplasty addressing septal deviation, turbinate reduction, or nasal valve repair is also offered. Each consultation includes 3D simulation from eight angles. Surgeon fees range from $5,000 to $25,000 depending on complexity; operating room and anesthesia fees are billed separately.
About this treatment
City Facial Plastics offers a comprehensive rhinoplasty programme under Dr. Gary Linkov, one of a small number of surgeons in New York City with dual board certification in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery. This combination of credentials means both the aesthetic and functional aspects of nasal surgery receive equal attention.
Dr. Linkov performs open rhinoplasty — preferred for complex structural cases — through a small, well-concealed incision along the columella that allows full visualisation of the nasal framework. Closed (endonasal) rhinoplasty, with all incisions hidden inside the nostrils, is used where less structural modification is needed and offers a faster recovery profile. Both approaches support cartilage grafting using autografts, homografts, or alloplastic…
Functional rhinoplasty is performed for patients with documented breathing obstruction: procedures include septoplasty, inferior turbinate reduction, nasal polypectomy, sinus surgery, and nasal valve repair. Functional cases may qualify for partial insurance coverage where medical necessity is established.
