I have an ugly nose, I am really considering Rhinoplasty , what do you think?
Hello Yahoo community , i have a Problem, ever since I started puberty, my nose has been coming more mature and ugly. It was all good when I was a kid but know that I'm 19, it is really making me feel self concious and is distracting me from really making good relationships and just focusing In school because I feel everyone stares at it . I have a big nose, it has a large dorsal hump and it also has a bulbous tip along with it hooking massively when I smile. It makes my smile look devios from a certain angle but I am postitive people notice it because when I'm up close to them they either , touch there nose orr they rub their nose upward pushing their nose up. All people I encounter does that or something similar, even now my own family is noticing my my ginormous nose . It's just so awkward and I am really considering Rhinoplasty. The only thing putting me off is the steep price it will cost me and that i am a college student, I don't nearly have the much in hand but I would be willing to make it in payments if that is possible Orr if my medical insurance can pay half or something like that, idk if that is possible . Ill put some links of pics to my nose. Soo what do you guys think, I'm currently living in California and will most likely have the operation in this state .

Is 13 too young to get rhinoplasty?
Your face proportions will still change a little over the next couple years, so I don't know if a legit doctor would consider it (though it's certainly done). Personally, I think features create character - look at Sarah Jessica Parker and Jewel - not very attractive noses, but they have a hell of a lot going for them despite it. Jennifer Grey's career tanked after she got a nose job (the chick from Dirty Dancing and Ferris Bueller). My husband has a straight nose, but a raised birthmark on his bridge that makes it look bumpy - honestly, once someone sees the "person" those things become invisible. Maybe you could think of it as a built-in sincerity meter until your parents feel more comfortable about the surgery.
I feel ugly: What rhinoplasty change would suit close set eyes and an oblong face?
After reading your question I feel that what you really need is a hug and some love. Damn it, I am not a hippie. lol However their propaganda happens to fit here. You are a beautiful person. You do not need to change anything about yourself in order to be accepted. I myself prefer a larger nose on a female. ;) If some one does not like you for who you are than I say screw em! Just be yourself and learn to love how you look. I mean there will always be people that do not like you for no reason at all and they will just make up crap about you even if you were societies version of "perfect". So do not go through with something that will just end up with a horrible road to striving towards just a lil bit more perfect, and more and more surgery.
Is rhinoplasty (nose job) dangerous? Is it painful?
I have not had rhino, but im getting breast implants in a few months so i have been doing alot of research on surgery. no, it is not dangerous if it is done by a CERTIFIED plastic surgeon, and no it should not be terribly painful. they use IV sedation or general anesthesia (breathing tube) to put you under, so you will be completely asleep. afterwards there will be some post op discomfort, but you will be able to manage it with the use of pain killers. hope this was helpful to you :)
My nose is fat and ugly!?
First of all you need to accept that you may have flaws, and that's ok. If you REALLY want to change them, then do it in a healthy way. instead of plucking your eyebrows, perhaps get a fringe or bangs to draw away attention and focus on your nicer attributes such as eyes or hair. Eat a healthy diet and the blackheads should go away and cleanse and exercise and drink water for beautiful skin. Plenty of people have larger than usual noses and they can look quite nice on the right face, which im sure you have =) We just have to learn to accept what we don't like about ourselves and understand that you don't NEED a smaller nose, just like i don't need a bigger upper lip [ its not existant ] and that some people dont have noses to smell with or lips to smile with .
What should I do about my ugly nose?
Contouring is a good idea to make it look thinner - watch a few tutorials on YouTube.Everyone has something they hate about themselves, for example, I don't like my lips because they're small and flat, but other people don't notice that. And then they tell me - "I wish I had your nose" and I notice that their nose is quite big, and mine is not. I, however, wish I had their eyes/lips/whatever. And if they hadn't told me about their nose, I wouldn't have noticed anything bad about it. When I sit on the bus and watch people get on, I just see people with normal faces, but when I think back to people feeling bad about something and I look at them and see the things that they could feel bad about, but when I don't pay attention to it, I don't notice it and until I tell people about something I don't like myself, people don't notice it either.
Is my nose too big? Should I get plastic surgery?
I think your nose looks perfectly fine, if I saw you on the street I wouldn't give it a second look.If you're asking the question because you became self conscious about this on your own, keep in mind that as you grow up, your face will continue to change. Also keep in mind that as our bodies and faces change it takes awhile to get used to those changes, what you find attractive and unattractive in yourself will change over time. When I was your age I was absolutely certain that my nose was a horrible ski-jump of a monstrosity, I was self-conscious and ashamed, I felt like a freak. Interestingly enough as I got older, more and more people I met or dated would mention to me just how cute they thought my nose was or how they'd love to have a "little upturned nose" like mine. I was blown away at some point when I looked at my nose from that perspective and realized that somehow that ski-jump of mine had turned out to be one of my favorite features. If you're asking this because people are making you feel bad about it, another thing to keep in mind, people are at their most nasty and judgemental when they are in junior high/high school. A part if it is because those changes in hormones can be a beast, they bring out the worst in everyone. Once they start to balance out people get a whole lot nicer. Another is because almost everyone is insecure when they are growing up and they often become very concerned about fitting in. The people who worry about that the most are often the people who are the most likely to lash out at other people. (and yes, that can include the gorgeous ones.)Over time people often begin to see our unique physical qualities as attractive and a thing that makes us who we are. Look up the actress Jennifer Grey when you have a second. She was a huge deal in the 80's. She had a prominent nose and after she became known she had plastic surgery. Her career suddenly came to a standstill. It turns out that her nose was a part of what drew people to her and had become her trademark.
