Answer: I had rhinoplasty when I was 18, but I was ready to have my nose done when I was 14. The reason I had to wait so long is that my doctor wouldn't operate on me till I had stopped growing . At the time it seemed like a long time to wait, but I'm glad I did. By the time I was 18 I was abolutely sure about my decision to go through with surgery.

Answer: The most important thing is to make sure that you have stopped growing. If you have a nose job and your face changes the result might end up looking strange. The first step is going for a consultation with a plastic surgeon. They will usually have a good idea of whether or not you're ready for surgery.

Answer: I think you should wait till you graduate from high school to change your nose. It might be hard now if people always talk about you, but they're not going to talk about you any less if you have a nose job half way through school. I know it's hard, but try to embrace your looks. Almost everyone has something abut themselves they don't like, but if you act confident and sure of yourself, most people will forget about your minor flaws.
