I would like have a septoplasty and minimal rhinoplasty combined. What type of surgeon should I see? Based on the CT, would insurance pay for this? I do have restricted airflow on the left. My nostril collapses when breathing solely from that side. Thanks in advance!
Answer: YES- I Recommend Rhinoplasty with Deprojection | Facial Plastic Surgery Expert | Nose Job | Breathing Issues | Valve Collapse Hello and thank you for your question and the pictures. Addressing breathing issues is actually one of the most common reasons people seek out and undergo a rhinoplasty. An open septorhinoplasty can best address both your functional issues and your aesthetic concerns with your nose- I'd also recommend nasal tip deprojection to improve the overall harmony of your different facial features. I would be able to address your septum, and open up and reinforce your internal and external nasal valves to improve the airflow through your nose! I'd also be able to adjust the size, shape, and definition of your nose.

Answer: Septo+Rhinoplasty and probably additional one more procedure Hi,Your CT scan has indicates your maxillary sinuses has sinusitis ,Right side maxillary sinus is more than left side.For compherensive evaluation other sections of the CT scan should be considered.Your collapsed alar wings need to be strenghten during surgery. SeptoRhinoplasty and (probably )Functional endoscopical sinus surgery can be asked to your insurence company if it will charge this combined procedure or not.From aesthetical view,your nose tip needs to be shortened(deprojection) and slightly rotation.

Answer: Rhinoplasty to improve shape... Based on your photos, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. The nose could be made shorter and better defined at the tip. At the same time, a septoplasty can be done to help breathing. The septoplasty can be covered by insurance, but the rhinoplasty would be a cosmetic procedure. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert for consultation.

Answer: Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty and insurance Hi, and thank you for your question. For a combined septoplasty and rhinoplasty, you should see a board-certified otolaryngologist (ENT specialist) with facial plastic surgery training or a facial plastic surgeon who has experience in both functional and cosmetic nasal surgeries. These specialists are well-equipped to address both the structural and aesthetic concerns of your nose.
