[Rhinoplasty--functional and esthetic surgery on the nose].

With the aid of rhinoplasty, functional or cosmetic defects affecting the nose can be surgically corrected. In cases of disturbed nasal breathing due to septum deviations, hypertrophy of the conchae or a crooked nose which, for example, has led to deformation of the inside of the nose and thus to a functional disturbance, there is no question that the insurance will cover the costs. In the case of mild deformities, however, an expertise is first required. Purely cosmetic corrections are not covered by the health insurance and must be paid for by the patient him/herself. At the end of the operation, the nose is supported with splints and tamponades. Any subsequent surgery should be done at the earliest after one year.
