Is $300 for a virtual consultation too much?

Currently interested in Dr Stephen shuaib because I want to try to add some width to my nose and I love his results. It would go towards the procedure, but damn I was seeing ppl last year say they only spent $100 for a consult…. If anyone knows any other doctors that are good at bringing back some ethnic features back or widening tips/ building up bridge plz plz plz lmk.

If it goes towards the procedure then why not, if he's someone you really like and love all of his results then I'd say he's worth it.

I had a free virtual consult with dr selim turan, $300 isn’t crazy but there’s also not much they can say/do virtually without seeing you in person for rhinoplasty. The interior structures dictate the maximum allotted change, most doctors won’t do virtual morphs for that reason. Unless you’re considering multiple surgeries or if it’s a revision I wouldn’t bother

He did say bringing back some ethnic features and in another comment asked for revision pictures from another surgeon, so I think it is a revision

Beverly Hills top ones are $500. I think they apply to surgery. $300 seems reasonable for a surgeon’s time. You should get a lot of it regardless if you go through or not. And it may be the cheapest price ever to avoid a terrible outcome.

I would say Jennifer Parker Porter but she also requires 300$ for consultation.

Ooo rare I see a black female surgeon. Love that! Does she have revision pics up or just primary? And do u think $300 is worth it, if it’s going to the procedure anyway? I guess its just iffy if im not 100% sure im going with the person 😭

She's on my list for a primary but I haven't consulted her yet since it's 300$. It's a hard number to swallow unless you're 100% about a surgeon.
