Considering Nose Surgery? Here’s What You Should Know

Nose surgery, medically known as rhinoplasty, is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in Canada. It can reshape, resize, or refine the nose for both aesthetic and functional reasons, including breathing issues or post-injury correction.

But before booking a consultation, most Canadians want to know:
What does a nose job actually look like before and after?
How much does rhinoplasty cost—and can I finance it?

In this blog, we’ll explore what rhinoplasty can achieve, show what before and after nose surgery results often look like, and explain how Medicard helps make the procedure more accessible through flexible monthly financing.

What Is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that alters the shape or structure of the nose. It can be done for:

  • Cosmetic reasons (refining nasal tip, bridge, or nostrils)
  • Functional correction (deviated septum or trauma)
  • A combination of both

Common procedure types include:

  • Nose tip refinement
  • Hump removal
  • Narrowing of the nasal bridge
  • Correction for bulbous nose

Nose Surgery Before and After: What to Expect

Patients typically notice a significant difference in both their facial balance and confidence after surgery. Swelling can take time to subside, but the final result is often visible within 6 to 12 months.

Many patients search for nose lift before and after photos to visualize what subtle changes can look like. Whether you’re refining the tip, removing a bump, or narrowing the bridge, photos can help set realistic expectations and guide your consultation with a surgeon.

How Much Does Nose Surgery Cost in Canada?

Rhinoplasty costs in Canada can vary widely depending on location, complexity, and clinic reputation.

Type of RhinoplastyEstimated Cost (CAD)
Cosmetic Rhinoplasty$6,000 – $10,000
Revision Rhinoplasty$9,000 – $15,000
