Unlike other cosmetic surgery centers, Ochsner can offer sinus surgery at same time as aesthetic or reconstructive surgery. About 80 percent of people have some degree of septal deviation which can cause nasal or breathing obstruction and sleep apnea. Ask your doctor if cosmetic nose surgery can be performed at the same time as a septoplasty in a combination procedure called a septorhinoplasty.

To schedule an appointment, call 504-842-4080 or go to my.ochsner.org.

Some facial plastics procedures are considered elective and may not be paid for by your insurance company. Consult your insurance provider and Ochsner’s pre-certification department for more information.
