Has anyone had a nose job on nhs?

How did you qualify? As well as my small breasts which I paid to have done myself, I was also taunted by my friends about my nose and noticed in some mri shots that my nose was actually wonky, it has a little lump on the top and I dislike it. How can I get one on the NHS because I have no savings left and it would take me ages to earn it on part time job.

.

The chances of the nhs funding it are very slim these days due to there tight budget, my grandmother had her boobs done on the nhs in the 70s and i tryed to get mine done with them but it was a bit of a waste of time and humiliation. You have to go to your doctor and if they feel it is affecting you phsycologicly they will make a case which has to go before a panel, which decide wether to give you funding or not. I had to take pictures and right a letter explaining how it affected my day to day life.. The doctor even refered me to a counciller to help my case, then i had to wait about a month for a letter back which explained that they dont do it for phsycological reasons anymore (such as depression) because there is no evidence and they would only fund mastectomy patients or if you had a hereditory condition, so i assume they would be the same about a nose job. However it also depends on what area you live in so it may be worth a try x

Thanks for your response I will probably just have to save or learn to love myself the way I am aha! x

When i first started looking into nose jobs i went to the doctors first and he reffered me to a surgeon, but rang back a few weeks time and they said i wasnt applicable for it as it wasnt for a health reason…So went with MYA and they are fantastic xxx
