Rhinoplasty in Barcelona

It starts from €6,000. It varies depending on whether it is a primary or secondary surgery, the technique used, the need to correct the septum or breathing function, the use of grafts and the length of the procedure.

At Instituto de Benito, Av. Diagonal, 490, 1º 1ª, in the Sarrià-Sant Gervasi district. The consultation, wound care and all follow-up visits take place there.

At the Diagonal clinic, noses are treated by Dr. David Neagu, a specialist in facial and maxillofacial surgery, and Dr. Javier de Benito, medical director of Instituto de Benito. You are assigned to one of the two from your first consultation, and he is the one who performs the procedure.

The nose is examined inside and out, we discuss which changes are possible and which are not, and the technique is defined. At the end of the visit you are given a written quote.

Follow-up visits with the specialist are part of the treatment plan. They are concentrated in the first few weeks, for wound care and removal of the splint, and are then spaced out.

The nearest metro station is Diagonal, on lines L3 and L5. You can also get here with Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat (L6, L7, S1 and S2) and on buses V13, V15 and H8.

Synapta is the recovery protocol created by Instituto de Benito, aimed at reducing pain and body tension after surgery. After a rhinoplasty it helps with facial tension in the first few days. It is included in the price at the Barcelona clinic, and you can see what it involves on the Synapta page.

A secondary rhinoplasty (one performed to correct the result of a previous surgery) starts from €8,000 and can exceed €15,000 in complex nasal reconstructions. It is more expensive because the tissue has already been operated on, a cartilage graft is usually needed and the procedure takes longer.

Because of four variables: the surgeon's experience, the technique used, whether the surgery is primary or secondary and, above all, which items the quote actually includes. Before comparing two prices, check whether both include the operating room, anesthesiologist, hospital stay and follow-up visits, because that is where the differences usually lie.

A price far below the market rate usually means that there are items left out of the quote that will appear later, or that the procedure is not performed by a plastic surgeon. Always ask for the quote in writing, with a breakdown of what is and is not included, and the name and medical license number of the person who will operate on you.
