Q: I have a flat nose and it’s pretty hard for me to find glasses that fit my face and nose bridge. Not only that, but once allergy season comes around, it gets really hard for me to breathe through my nose. I was wondering if getting a nose job could help me and if I can get my insurance to cover it. If not, how much should I expect for it to cost? And what kind of nose job would work for me?
A: While functional aspects of the surgery may be covered partially by insurance, typically for surgery will not address allergic nasal obstruction.
With regards to your cosmetic concerns of having a low, flat nose, the safest and most beautiful results are possible using tissue and grafts from your own body. Achieving the best results in Asian rhinoplasty requires meticulous surgical technique in synergy with a keen aesthetic eye.
