Rhinoplasty—commonly referred to as a nose job—is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in Canada. Whether for aesthetic enhancement, correcting asymmetry, or improving breathing, it’s a transformative surgery that can boost both confidence and quality of life.
But what many patients don’t always plan for is the recovery journey, both physically and financially. At Medicard, we understand that planning for cosmetic surgery goes beyond choosing the right surgeon—it also includes choosing the right financing partner. We’re here to help you feel empowered before, during, and after your procedure.
What Is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose for cosmetic or functional purposes. It can:
- Refine the nasal bridge or tip
- Address nasal asymmetry
- Correct breathing issues (septoplasty)
- Repair previous injury or trauma
Whether your goals are cosmetic, medical, or both, rhinoplasty is a highly customizable procedure performed by certified plastic surgeons or ENT specialists.
Your Rhinoplasty Recovery Timeline: What to Expect
While results can be long-lasting, it’s important to understand the recovery process in full. Here’s what you can expect post-surgery:
Week 1: Rest and Initial Healing
- Swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes are common
- A splint is typically worn for protection and shaping
- Most patients return to light activity or work after 7–10 days
Weeks 2–4: Visible Improvement
- Swelling begins to decrease noticeably
- Nasal breathing improves as internal swelling subsides
- Patients can return to low-impact activities, but should avoid heavy exercise
1–3 Months: Subtle Refinements
- Most visible swelling resolves
- The shape of the nose becomes more defined
- Full results begin to appear
6–12 Months: Final Results
- Swelling fully resolves
- The final nasal contour is visible and stable
- Follow-up with your surgeon ensures everything is healing properly
Rhinoplasty is a journey—and while healing takes time, proper planning (including financing) can make the process smoother and more stress-free.
How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost in Canada?
The average cost of rhinoplasty in Canada ranges from $7,000 to $12,000 CAD, depending on:
- Surgeon expertise and location
- Complexity of the procedure
- Whether it includes functional corrections like septoplasty
- Anesthesia, facility fees, and follow-up care
Because rhinoplasty is often considered cosmetic, it is not typically covered by provincial health plans—making financing a valuable option for many patients.
