First of all don't have any illusions that liposuction will get rid of dimpled or rippled looking skin.

| | What To Consider Before Having A Nose JobWritten by Kelly Altodona
So you've decided to have a nose job otherwise known as a rhinoplasty. Before you decide to go forward there are a few things you need to know about this common cosmetic surgery procedure.First of all, most nose jobs are considered to be elective surgery, which means that it is not absolutely necessary. This means that you need to be financially prepared for cost of procedure as well as for three days to two weeks that you might need to recover from operation. In some countries such as Canada or Costa Rica a government insurance program might cover cost of operation if surgery is deemed to be necessary medically. There are very few situations under which a rhinoplasty is considered to be medically necessarily in order to improve an individual's quality of life. If you have a serious accident that involves a direct blow to face that causes shattering of nasal bones or tearing of nasal cartilage than your nose job will likely be considered to be an emergency. This is also true if injury affects your ability to breathe in anyway. Other conditions that qualify as medical justifications to have a nose job are a deviated septum, a birth defect or a nasal obstruction. However surgeries to correct these conditions are also considered elective. This means that unless you are willing to pay a pretty penny for private treatment you might be waiting for months to have your surgery done in a hospital. If a doctor can also demonstrate that an individual is suffering a serious and prolonged mental or emotional illness (such as depression o a cognitive disorder) as result of an overly large or asymmetrical nose then your case might be seen to more urgently.
