Sara didn’t feel comfortable with her nose. Her friends told her it looked fine, but she was never convinced. She thought the tip looked like it was melting. Sure, her friends laughed, but Sara was serious. She grew more and more self-conscious.

Eventually, Sara decided that she needed a nose job. A nose job, known in medical terms as rhinoplasty, is a popular procedure in cosmetic reconstructions. People unhappy with the shape of their nose can change the shape of many aspects of their nose by undergoing rhinoplasty. Several popular procedures include:

• Changing your nose size
• Reducing the width at the bridge of the nose
• Altering the profile of your nose
• Correcting nostril size
• Creating symmetry for the nose

Sara looked around in the states and realized that a nose job could cost up to $8,000. No way could she afford that. She had been saving for a trip to South America and decided to look there for a quality, experienced and educated cosmetic surgeon. She found more than a handful of excellent cosmetic surgeons in Brazil and Argentina, where she planned to visit. Costs for a rhinoplasty procedure there included surgeon and hospital fees, and anesthesia and prescription medicines (if they were needed).

Sara did her homework and researched several facilities and cosmetic surgeons online at a medical resource and provider’s website. Contacting the doctors was easy, and after speaking to three excellent and highly qualified plastic surgeons in South America, she chose one. Now, Sara looks in the mirror and smiles, and her friends are amazed at the change in Sara’s self-esteem and self-confidence.
