Getting ready for another cleft nose/lip surgery

Postby Joanne » Fri May 28, 2004 1:31 am

Hi everyone. I am 38 years old and am getting ready for another nose reconstruction. I am fortunate that the insurance pays for it. I do have a question though,my surgeon says that my jaw is asymmetrical is why my nose and lip are asymmetrical. I am not sure if it would be considered reconstructive sugery to have it fixed. It seems more cosmetic,right? I know insurance doesn't pay for that kind of surgery. Any thoughts about this. Thanks my new email is DRUSILLA2431@juno.com if you want to contact me by email.
