In today’s society we are brought up that looks are extremely important. You have to be skinny. You have to have the right hair, the body shape and do not forget the right nose job. The question at hand then is how young is too young to get a nose job?
With celebrities having plastic surgery over and over children and teenagers think that this is a hot trend. Should you have to be 15, 17 years old or should a rhinoplasty wait until after you have turned of legal age? We are fed with misconceptions that it may be okay to have a nose job at say 13 or even 14. However, are we actually mature enough to make this decision on our own at that young of an age.
It use to be that plastic surgeons would not do nose job surgery on anyone younger than 17 or 18 due to the fear the patients nose may still continue to grow due to their young age. Now, nose jobs are done on children in their early teens because it has been proven that the nose stops growing around the age of 13 or 14.
How young is too young to get a nose job is a difficult question to answer, because there is no definite answer. If a young child breaks his or her nose and needs the surgery then by all means do the nose job. The rhinoplasty would then be a medical necessity.
However, if a child is going through poor self-esteem or just wants a nose job because everyone is doing it, then it is probably time to rethink the rhinoplasty. A nose job may cause bigger issues in life than needing to look better. Plastic surgery is surgery all the same, the risks are there.

The enigma that is the late great king of pop, Michael Jackson, is one of great speculation in all aspects of the late singer’s life. Due to his premature death, many if not all of the questions have been left unanswered for all time. Of the biggest questions asked in regards to Michael Jackson, cosmetic surgery is an inquiry often brought up about him.
Whether he admitted it or not everyone who ever laid eyes on him could easily figure out that he has had more than a little cosmetic work done. But the King of Pop has only admitted to noninvasive cosmetic injections, the creation of the cleft in his chin and two plastic surgeries for his nose. The two and only confirmed rhinoplasty were more in line with the functional and reconstructive side of the surgical field than the cosmetic.
Michael Jackson had been receiving dermal fillers, noninvasive cosmetic injections, since 1986. These injections smooth out lines and wrinkles in the face and work much like Botox but are not the same. Michael also had the cleft in his chin surgically produced through the use of chin implants. The surgery for chin modification is referred to as chin augmentation and can also reverse natural chin clefts.
In 1979, Michael Jackson had his first confirmed rhinoplasty, or nose job. The surgery was brought on when the singer fell during an intricate dance move and broke his nose. His second admitted cosmetic nose surgery was performed in 1980, after the first surgery failed to achieve quality results. The first surgery fixed his nose but caused him breathing issues. Due to the nature of his career and the style in which he sang he needed optimum breathing to hit the high notes. The second surgery fixed this and allowed him to carry on with his singing without any breathing issues.
