With buzz going around about a new proposed excise tax to be placed upon cosmetic procedures, many are already trying to find a loophole. The tax, if passed, is only going to be put upon procedures not deemed medically necessary. So the question becomes, what procedures can you make medically necessary?
One answer to the common rhinoplasty procedure is using the medical excuse of a "deviated septum." Celebrities, such as Jennifer Aniston, have used the medical reasoning of a deviated septum in order to undergo their nose reconstruction.
Whether that is true, may never be known. The Alternative Health Journal explains that a septoplasty is needed to cure a deviated septum, but is often morphed into a larger procedure including rhinoplasty. However, a septoplasty is a medically viable procedure that may allow some women to bypass the cosmetic surgery tax.
