Revision rhinoplasty on AXA?

3 replies

Has anyone done this?

I had a septorhinoplasty on Vitality 4 years ago to fix breathing issues - initially all fine, not perfect or symmetrical aesthetically but the graft they did fixed my breathing. However over the last year, perhaps due to aging, the cartilage looks horrendous and my nose now looks really ridged and deformed. I hate it. Is there any chance of a revision rhinoplasty on AXA now?

I guess to depends on the terms of the policy. My Axa policy won’t cover anything pre-existing from the previous 5 years.

Thank you for replying. Mine is the same I think but this isn't a pre-existing condition, it's a visual deformity that's arisen from a relatively recent surgery. I guess the question is how to swing it as it's aesthetic rather than functional and they're usually tough on that but it's affecting my confidence so much.

Yes I agree although from my experience it may be difficult, I had something affecting one knee that I’d had a procedure on before, then had an accident 4 years later and although a completely separate incident they said there was pre existing history for that knee so therefore the policy excluded it.
Good luck though, and maybe someone else can advise more positively?
