La Peer Surgery Center hosts rhinoplasty procedures performed by several of its affiliated surgeons across the plastic surgery and otolaryngology (head and neck) specialties. Surgeons performing rhinoplasty at the facility include Dr. Babak Azizzadeh — whose facial plastic surgery expertise spans primary and revision rhinoplasty using both open and closed techniques — and Dr. Hootan Zandifar, an ENT and facial plastics specialist with a focused practice in rhinoplasty and nasal reconstruction. The range of rhinoplasty procedures available at La Peer covers dorsal hump reduction and profile refinement, nasal tip definition and projection adjustment, alar base narrowing, nostril reshaping, ethnic rhinoplasty that preserves and refines characteristic features while improving proportion, functional septoplasty combined with cosmetic correction where a deviated septum contributes to nasal airway obstruction, and revision rhinoplasty for patients who require correction after a prior procedure at another facility. Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia in La Peer's outpatient OR, with a surgical time of two to four hours depending on the complexity of corrections required. The AAAHC-accredited setting provides the safety infrastructure of a hospital without the cost and scheduling overhead of an inpatient facility — a meaningful consideration for patients traveling from outside the Los Angeles area or internationally. Post-operative care involves a nasal splint for seven to ten days, restricted activity for two to three weeks, and avoidance of strenuous exercise for four to six weeks. Initial bruising and swelling around the eyes and nasal bridge typically resolve within two to three weeks, with the nose approaching its refined shape at three to four months and final results fully visible at twelve months as residual swelling completes its resolution. Beverly Hills all-in rhinoplasty costs — surgeon fee, facility, and anesthesia — typically range from $12,000 to $20,000 for primary procedures.
