not a chance. If you can a deviated septum you might be able to tack on a nose job in the same surgery to save $$ (but that will be all out of pocket expenses). Insurance i beleive pays for deviated septumsexlax said:

How does this affect training?
I would hate to spend months adding mass and cutting up only to get rhinoplasty and lose all that effort...
How long before you are back in the gym and able to lift heavy (deadlift etc.)?

My best friend had a nose job 2 years ago.
He had a BIG nose which had a hump near the upper part. He was a good-looking guy (hope I don't sound gay LOL) except for his grossly big nose. He finally had a nose job after complaining about his nose for years and years.
His face was really swollen for about 4-5 days after surgery. He actually didn't leave his house for a full week afterwards, except to go to the surgeon the day after surgery to have the gauze removed. The nose splint came off a week after surgery and he wore some tape on it for another 2-3 days. After about 10 days most of the nasal swelling had subsided, except in the mornings when he woke up his nose seemed to be a little swollen which subsided after a few hours.
Anyways, the difference in his appearance was remarkable. He went from a good-looking guy who had a BIG nose to a "hot" guy (again, I'm not gay, just describing how chicks refer to him LOL) and now he's constantly hit on.
If you don't like your nose, get a nose job. The difference in appearance and more importantly self-esteem and confidence will be well-worth it.
Be careful, though, when it comes to selecting a surgeon. Rhinoplasty is a tough job- there are a lot of surgeons who suck at it. This is the most important part of the entire procedure. My best friend is anal and ended up researching surgeons for about 2 months. He found a guy who had a reputation for doing revisions- that is, correcting previous bad nose jobs.
I would NOT go with a plastic surgeon who does stuff like liposuction, tummy tucks, etc.... Rhinoplasty is so difficult that you should find a surgeon who only does facial plastic surgery, i.e. a true specialist. My best friend's surgeon had completed a ear-nose-throat residency and then did a fellowship in plastic surgery- he was a specialist in only facial surgery.

I had it done, and it was the best thing I have ever done for my appearance! I had the bone broken in 3 places and chiseled and everything. I didn't even have black eyes, which is unusual. It has healed a very lsight bit off center. That can just happen no matter how good the surgeon is because the nose doesn't really take its final shape until about a year after the surgery. I think that the flaw is so slight that I probably won't correct it. I love my results!
