Cosmetic and Reconstructive Rhinoplasty in Palm Springs

Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is one of the most versatile plastic surgeries because it can be used to treat a number of cosmetic and reconstructive concerns. Palm Springs patients who undergo nose job surgery for purely cosmetic purposes do so because they are unhappy with the size or shape of their nose. They generally wish to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing nose that is proportional to their overall face. Palm Springs patients who undergo rhinoplasty for reconstructive purposes typically have trouble breathing due to sinus problems caused by a deviated septum and/or traumatic injury.

Palm Springs rhinoplasty patients often receive additional facial treatments to create a more proportionate, rejuvenated overall face appearance. For example, many inquire about facelift, eyelid surgery or brow lift. Others consult their Palm Springs plastic surgeon about minimally invasive treatments, such as Botox, Restylane, laser hair removal or Latisse eyelash growth formula, to obtain a complete facial makeover.

Types of Board-Certification for Palm Springs Nose Surgeons

When choosing a Palm Springs nose surgeon, it is recommended that you view the credentials of the surgeon as well as his or her nose job photos of previous patients before making a decision. One factor to consider is whether the physician is board certified. The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) has the most stringent requirements of all plastic surgery-related medical boards. Thus, patients can rest assured that a Palm Springs plastic surgery provider who is certified by the ABPS is highly qualified, which reduces rhinoplasty risks. In addition, some cosmetic surgeons are double–board certified, obtaining certification from both the American Board of Surgery and the ABPS. Many surgeons who perform rhinoplasty are also certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, which specifically certifies surgeons in the areas face, head and neck procedures, including nose surgery. Others may be certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology, an organization that ensures the standards of head and neck surgery.

Rhinoplasty and Insurance Coverage in Palm Springs

If a Palm Springs patient is undergoing a rhinoplasty merely for cosmetic purposes, the procedure will not be paid for by health insurance. However, in cases where rhinoplasty is being used for reconstructive surgery or medical purposes, part of the cost of the procedure may be covered by health insurance. A private consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon will help patients better understand their payment options and whether their nose surgery procedure may be covered by insurance.

They also present many options for patients seeking more curvaceous or svelte physiques. In fact, they are renowned providers of body lift, butt implants and breast augmentation Palm Springs patients rely on for their body sculpting needs.
