Septorhinoplasty and Blue Cross Blue Shield

Columbia6571
I am 18/f. I broke my nose a few weeks ago and my doctor said I should get a septorhinoplasty. I know BCBS will cover the reconstructive part of the operation. The thing is, I have ALWAYS hated my nose. Can I get BCBS to consider a complete reshaping of my entire nose as the "reconstruction" of my nose? Can my surgeon give me the nose Ive always wanted while getting rid of a bump acquired from injury? Do surgeons think it's unethical to reshape it to my preference under insurance?
