Self-funding patients
Consultation fees for patients funding their own care are:
| Initial consultation | £350 |
|---|---|
| Follow-up consultation | £250 |
In recognition of the fact that cosmetic rhinoplasty patients may wish to see more than one surgeon before going ahead with surgery, initial consultations about cosmetic rhinoplasty are charged at the follow-up rate (£250). Further consultations before and after surgery for cosmetic patients are free of charge (facility fees may be applicable).
We aim to make the costs of care as simple and transparent as possible. Mr Jacques does not personally charge any additional procedure fees for nasal endoscopy, ear microsuction or other in-clinic procedures.
However, additional fees (known as facility fees) are charged by the hospital or clinic for procedures when carried out as part of your consultation. These fees are set by the hospital and invoiced separately. For example, when nasal endoscopic examination is performed, a separate charge is payable to the clinic itself for use of equipment, depending on location.
If you have any questions about fees, please contact us and a full quotation will be provided.
Rhinoplasty surgical fees
Surgical fees for rhinoplasty and related nasal procedures are discussed individually after consultation. The fee depends on the complexity of your case (primary or revision surgery, grafting requirements, and whether functional airway work is included).
A written quotation is provided before surgery is booked, covering Mr Jacques’s surgical fee. Hospital or clinic fees, anaesthetic fees and any implants or grafts are set by the hospital and billed separately — these will also be clarified before you proceed.
Patients with medical insurance
Mr Jacques is recognised and fee-assured by all major medical insurance providers. If you have medical insurance, please contact your provider for an authorisation number prior to arranging a consultation. Depending on your policy terms, there may be an excess fee or shortfall in reimbursement, which is the responsibility of the patient.
If we agree that you require surgical treatment, it is important to check again with your insurer that this is fully funded.
Part-pay and combined funding
Some patients have insurance cover for the functional (breathing) component of surgery, while choosing to self-fund any cosmetic refinement. Where appropriate, this can be discussed at consultation so that authorisation, quotations and hospital booking are arranged clearly for each part of your care.
Please bring your policy details and any pre-authorisation correspondence to your appointment, or share them with the practice team in advance.
