Will health insurance typically cover dorsal hump rhinoplasty for severe sunburn prevention? (Photo)

December 24, 2016
Asked By:frlagace in Swansea, MA

During summer and fall the dorsal hump on my nose will sunburn so quickly and badly that the skin over the dorsal hump will bleed and create a 3/4 inch or so scab. Is rhinoplasty on the dorsal hump to prevent a bleeding sunburn, pain and skin cancer melanoma prophylactic an insurable procedure?
