Written Diagnosis for Nasal Deformities?

Can a potential surgeon offer a Written Diagnosis of the nasal deformities present in a case (cosmetic, not functional)? I have seen many surgeons for opinions but I have yet to receive a written diagnosis for my multiple nasal deformities.

The reality is that because of the nature of my career, insurance plans, therapy sessions, and of seeing many surgeons to make a choice, having a written diagnosis that my nasal issues exist would be a miracle. Would a surgeon be able to do this for me?

Your request is reasonable but your justification for asking is not clear. In order to plan surgery and end up with a happy patient the surgeon needs to find out what specifically bothers the patient such as a wide bridge or round tip etc. He/she can then offer adjustment of other features, give the patient different options and plan a surgery. If you say you want rhinoplasty surgery but cannot articulate a specific issue you want addressed or have a whole list of things you do not like some... more
