Common Medical Reasons for Rhinoplasty / Nose job:

If a rhinoplasty surgery is performed for medical reasons, such as birth defects, deformities caused by an injury, or correcting breathing, the insurance companies typically reimburse the cost of the procedure. However, it is necessary to talk to your insurance carrier and plastic surgeon before undergoing rhinoplasty for medical reasons to avail the benefits.

  1. Deviated septum/ Chronic sinus problems: Deviated nasal septum can cause chronic sinus problems, including sinus congestion and nasal allergy. A deviated septum can present at birth as a birth defect (occurring during fetal development) or due to injury during childbirth. Deviated septum is a condition when the thin wall that separates your right and left nasal passages — is displaced to one side. The condition can cause breathing problems, snoring, congestion, difficulty breathing, infections, nosebleeds, or sleep apnea when left untreated. However, a nose job procedure is required to address these concerns.
  2. Cleft Palate or Cleft Lip: This is another reason for rhinoplasty that occurs due to a birth defect. If left untreated, the condition can cause difficulty eating in children. It is a medical condition, but it can also affect facial harmony. However, a nose job is required to correct the condition, which also improves a person’s facial appearance.
  3. Other medical conditions: Some of the other medical conditions that might necessitate rhinoplasty surgery include:
  • Injuries
  • Nasal inflammation caused by chronic allergies,
  • Burns,
  • Broken noses,
  • Deformities.

Cosmetic Reasons to undergo Rhinoplasty Surgery:

An ideal nose shape, size, and contour can help compliment your face or overall facial appearance. However, Rhinoplasty is for solely aesthetic reasons that can alter the shape, size, contour, proportion, and overall facial appearance by addressing appearance concerns and improving overall facial harmony. Sometimes, your plastic surgeon may combine a nose job with a chin implant to help balance out your facial features more aesthetically.

Rhinoplasty performed for cosmetic purposes do the following job:

 

  • Narrowing or widening the nostrils

  • Reshaping the nose tip
