Rhinoplasty

Dr. Roy David performs primary and revision rhinoplasty at his San Diego practice, with published all-inclusive pricing of $6,500–$12,000. The procedure is tailored to each patient's ethnic background and facial proportions, addressing concerns including dorsal humps, bulbous or over-projected tips, wide nasal bases, and breathing impairment caused by a deviated septum. Dr. David holds dual board certification in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery and otolaryngology–head and neck surgery, giving him specialist expertise across both the aesthetic and functional dimensions of nasal surgery.

Rhinoplasty at Ora Plastic Surgery San Diego (Golden Triangle Plastic Surgery and Medical Spa) is performed by Dr. Roy A. David — one of a small number of surgeons nationwide holding dual board certification from the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS) and the American Board of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery. This credential reflects specialised training in both the cosmetic architecture of the nose and the functional anatomy of the nasal airway, making Dr. David well positioned to address the full spectrum of rhinoplasty cases: aesthetic reshaping, functional correction of breathing disorders, and the more technically demanding field of revision rhinoplasty. The practice publishes transparent all-inclusive pricing of $6,500–$12,000 — an unusually clear pricing structure for US plastic surgery — with the fee covering the surgical fee, a board-certified anaesthesiologist, the AAAASF-accredited operating facility, and twelve months of post-operative follow-up including any minor touch-up procedures required within that window. Rhinoplasty technique selection is guided by the complexity of the planned structural changes and the patient's anatomy. The open approach, involving a small transcolumellar incision connecting bilateral marginal incisions, provides direct visualisation of the nasal framework and is preferred for cases requiring significant cartilage modification, tip reshaping, or grafting. The closed endonasal approach keeps all incisions inside the nostrils and is appropriate for more limited modifications. Commonly addressed aesthetic concerns include reduction of a dorsal bony or cartilaginous hump through rasping or osteotomy, refinement of a wide or bulbous nasal tip through suture techniques or conservative cartilage reshaping, correction of asymmetry, and reduction of wide alar bases. Functional concerns — including a deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and collapsed internal nasal valves — are addressed concurrently where present, and may qualify for partial insurance coverage with appropriate documentation. Revision rhinoplasty cases are accepted at the San Diego practice; consultation includes a thorough assessment of prior surgical changes, remaining structural support, and available grafting material. San Diego patients are advised to allow seven to ten days of social downtime, with residual tip swelling typically resolving over nine to twelve months.
