Question

I have a highly deviated septum for which I am going to have a surgery for in the near future, but I would like the outer shape of the nose to change as well, will the NHS fund a septorhinoplasty for me?

Answer

As far as I know, there are some indications for combining correction of the nasal airway and external shape applicable for NHS funding, and this is something that he should discuss with your GP and your NHS specialist.
