Denver Revision Rhinoplasty Surgeon – Dr. Nick Slenkovich
What Does It Do?
Nasal surgery, or rhinoplasty, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. It is one of the more difficult surgeries in that there are numerous situations that can arise where a patient may need a revision to their nose reshaping procedure. The problem may be related to breathing or irritation or the patient may not be happy with the appearance of the nose. Revision rhinoplasty is designed to improve nasal-facial proportions through a wide range of procedures, from reducing the overall size of the nose to changing the shape of the tip or narrowing the span of the nostrils.
Revision Rhinoplasty Procedure
As one of the most accomplished Denver rhinoplasty surgeons, Dr. Slenkovich has many years’ experience performing rhinoplasty revision. He performs this intricate procedure on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. Depending on the unique situation of each patient, Dr. Slenkovich uses either the closed or open method of rhinoplasty. During closed rhinoplasty, incisions are placed within the nose. However, most revision rhinoplasty patients require the open rhinoplasty approach. This method allows Dr. Slenkovich to carefully re-arrange nasal tissues and shape the bone structure to create beautiful, proportionate nasal contours.
Revision Nose Surgery: Insurance and Financing
Insurance coverage for nose surgery depends on the purpose of the procedure. If rhinoplasty is performed to correct functional defects (such as a deviated septum or a broken nose), many insurance companies provide reimbursement. However, if rhinoplasty is performed for cosmetic purposes (such as improvement of facial symmetry), patients typically have to pay out of pocket. In order to help all individuals seeking revision rhinoplasty in Denver pay for this procedure, Colorado Plastic Surgery Center offers several convenient financing options.
