What is a “ski slope nose?”

Trends come and go, even in rhinoplasty. Years ago, a style known as the “ski slope” nose was popular. This type of nose has a slightly upturned tip and was created by removing tissue on the bridge of the nose to emphasize the tip. This produced a cookie cutter look and made it very obvious that a nose job was performed. Today, patients typically want a unique, custom, and natural-looking nose, so the ski slope nose has fallen out of fashion. A revision surgery can be performed for patients who are no longer happy with the ski jump look and would prefer a more natural appearance. This may involve adding or removing tissue, depending on the patient.

Will my insurance cover the cost of revision rhinoplasty?

It varies by plan, insurer, and circumstances, but some insurance companies will cover the portion of a rhinoplasty that is performed for medical purposes. Septoplasty describes the part of a nose surgery that is performed to benefit a patient’s breathing. The procedure helps to evenly separate the nasal passages, alleviating nasal breathing issues, sinus infections, and in some patients, snoring. Patients whose bad nose jobs resulted from a purely cosmetic procedure will typically have to pay for revision surgery out of pocket.
