Training and experience along with the proper credentials can help a paying determine a surgeon's capabilities. The head and neck is surgicl real estate laid claim to by any number of specialties. I reemphasize training and experience as hallmarks.

Go to a specialist: Unless the ear nose and throat surgeon specializes in rhinoplasty, i would suggest going to a plastic, or better yet, facial plastic surgeon. Any procedure you consider, you want to go to someone who does as many of your particular procedure as possible. Rhinoplasty, in particular, is a technically challenging procedure and you want to go to someone who does them all the time, not just occasionall.

Depends: Ent doctors will typically address functional problems with breathing. Ent doctors with additional training in facial plastic surgery will address both appearance and function, while plastic surgeons tend to treat appearance. Make sure your doc has experience in rhinoplasty!
