LA is the plastic capital of the world.  Nose jobs are one of the most common procedures.  I'm sure you can have your choice of the best frickin nose in the history of the world.  I'm sure that in LA plastic work price = outcome.  Damn sure about that.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

Price does no equal better Dr. Nassif charges almost $30k for a nose job and he work is just standard. For a nose job really do your homework and take your time.

Dr. Pincus is real good, but I know there is a real maestro out there in SoCa I just can't think of his name at the moment.  I shall look for you and pm if I find his name.

I've seen quite a lot of botches from Nassif, IIRC he's only popular for being on some cosmetic show.

Check out Menick, Guyuron, Gruber, Grigoryants etc... not sure of their locations but you should go to a nose job forum and read the posts.

So I had a Consultation about my nose with Dr Mayer in Beverly Hills and he told me its gonna cost $9000 is this a good price or high price? Or whats a good going rate for something like this. My face is already fem the only surgry I need is a more feminine nose.. And I'm done with my face. I already had laser beard removal with great results. But i dont wana inexperienced surgen thats not good with dealing with transgender persons needs.  I just dont wanna over pay. Any experiences out there or stories good or bad. I would like to hear your opions.

Mine on the east coast total price including hospital, anesthesiologist etc using a doc who has done trans work before was ~$5K

Might depend on how major you are doing? I had no bone work done.

Dr Nassif  is one of the world authorities for nose job. He is very good indeed. He is overpriced but outstanding.

From personal and professional experience  I completely disagree.  His revision rhinoplasty is nothing special there are much more qualified surgeons in this field who will give you far better results.  Dr. Nassif is about the money first, if you want to pay over $20k for a standard nose job then go. When I saw him he had no idea of ffs or any of the procedures another piece of information to take into consideration if you are going to him.

    I would personally never go to a doctor who doesn't do FFS. There are two doctors in LA who do FFS: Dr Mayer and Dr Alter, that I know of.
    I was talking about Dr Nassif regular nose jobs. He is good and the thing with him is that his web site shows good and no so good results which talks about his professionalism. The truth is that every doctor has not so good results but very few show them publicly. That talks about his honesty as a doctor and his intention for the patients to get realistic expectation. If he was not good with nose jobs he would not be internationally recognized as world authority for rhinoplasty. Just for a note, Dr Nassif teaches cosmetic surgeons around the world about rhinoplasty and his courses are highly respected and visited by his colleagues.
    If you are talking about rhinoplasty from a professional point of view then you will know that noses are the hardest thing in the facial surgery do be done especially secondary or tertiary nose jobs and very few doctors do them right.
   You said that his secondary rhinoplasty is nothing special. Well, that is something to talk about. The secondary rhinoplasty always has limited options, and maybe that was the maximum.
    His prices are over the roof I agree. But obviously somebody is paying that much money when he is still in the business.

Not to mention the various "gag contracts" he makes patients sign to prevent them from posting negative feedback about him. There's a UK/France doc that does the same called Phi1ippe Ch0ut who was banned from France for fraudulant advertising... he now posts on internet forums pretending to be his own patients, doesn't have as many results as Nassif and doesn't know the law as well.

Also there was a fake FFS video of Gary Alter on youtube... not sure if it's still up, but it had a couple blurry male pix at the start followed by plenty of some cis female stolen from her myspace. Youtube makes false advertising very easy.

You don't need an FFS surgeon for a nose job, you think women don't go into their office asking for more feminine noses? You'd more likely need someone who specialises in thick skin... look for a nose job specialists and it shouldn't cost more than $15k primary or revision unless you have an easy case then go for the FFS surgeon to save on fees.

Exactly. Any decent nose person is going to understand the difference between masculine and feminine noses are. The guy who did mine doesn't "specialize" in this but he has worked on MTF and FTM before.

Clearly you wouldn't want to go to someone who isn't comfortable with the whole trans thing but otherwise, it's not just a small handful of doctors who can do this..

Sweetie,

I'm sorry about your experience with this doctor. I had my first nose job done in Europe and it was a disaster. I had revision done by Dr Z and my nose looks great. I highly recommend him.

Not might be a good Idea to go to someone else if you are having your brow reset.  The doctor doing your brow will have great access to the glabella and  nasion areas which are pretty next to impossible when just doing rhinoplasty.  The perfect match would be the doctor doing your ffs to do your nose.  If you choose someone else better have that doctor coordinate with your ffs surgeon.  ;)
