Chin augmentation/deviated septum. Could my insurance cover this? (Photo)

A septoplasty is performed when there is a deviated septum present. A deviated septum is composed of bone and cartilage which is blocking air flow in the back of the nose and is performed for medical necessity and is billed to the patient's medical insurance. Co-pays and deductibles will still apply. A septoplasty will not change the shape of the nose. A chin implant is performed for purely cosmetic reasons and must be paid for by the patient themselves. Chin implants can be performed under local or general anesthesia, are composed of Silastic, are inserted through a sub mental approach as an outpatient surgical procedure. Both procedures ( Cosmetic and medical related)can be performed at the same time under one anesthetic if the patient so desires. for more information and many examples, please see the link below

Health insurance might cover the deviated septum causing airway obstruction ONLY. The rhinoplasty part with chin implant are considered cosmetic and therefore not covered... 

Each insurance policy is diferent. If you have a well documented history of having problems. If your problems have not been corrected by the treatment that you have had so far, you have a better insurance case. Insurance companies have recently been told what they have to offer, so to keep premiums down, they are highly critical of any procedure that could be seen as cosmetic. Good documentation is your best chance.
