Rhinoplasty (Nose job)
Hi,
Throughout school I got bullied for a few things, I've always been small for my age, I never had the shoes or coat or bag that was in fashion, my hair was a mess, I was a last developer and people also bullied me about my nose.
I'm not ashamed to admit it that the 11 years of bullying has left a lasting impression. My nose is very broad and appear flat i it completley dominates my face. I hate having photos taken because of it, I just look 2D.
I would love a rhinoplasty to break in the bone of my nose and make it more petite and lady-like and this would really really make me happy. Since I've started uni I have come into my own, its like the story of the ugly duckling but the one thing that would make me feel as though my transformation is complete would be a nose job. At 20 am I too young?
My Boyfriend and my Dad supports me, he is sympathetic that I inherited my birth mother's nose (neither of us speak to her anylonger - and its not because of my nose lol!) but when would be the best time to do it? Obviously I need to raise cash for myself so it would be after uni, but I'm concerned about the recovery time.
As a treat I'd love bigger boobs too, as I am very flat chested, I feel like a bloke! But for me, the rhinoplasty is more important.
Before people post and say 'you must be insecure' I already know that, I am, and I think I'm allowed to be if I've been through 11 years of torture from cruel kids.
Any comments will be helpful, thankyou.

Hey there, I dunno if what I've got to say will be of any use, but anyways...
Are you really the one who hates your nose, or have you just taken on board what assholes have said to you in the past? Is there really and truly anything wrong with it, in proportion to the rest of your face. Same for your breasts, okay, they may be small but as an overall package do you look good? The only reason I say this is cos I was once on the receiving end of some nasty comments as a teenager, which screwed my self-esteem no end, it was only when I turned 17 that I just about left all my insecurities behind. But, my point being, I was seriously contemplating a nose job last year. Until I mentined it to my friends, who were completely shocked, they'd never noticed anything wrong with my nose or anything and thought I'd flipped. So, are you sure you want to listen to bullies? You must have some pretty features and will surgery really change t=your life- you say you've already blossomed recently. Maybe your boyfriend and dad are sympathetic not cos they think you need it done, but cos tey see how much it upsets you, yeah? Anyway, I really don't know you so I'm not in any position to say really, but just think seriously before you have such painful (and maybe unecessary?) surgery at such a young age. Good luck whatever you decide to do honey, x
PS: If you are insecure about certain features then you are bound to hone in on them whenever you look in the mirror, become hyper-senstitive and think that people are staring at them too. Been there, done that, got the Tshirt.
yeh go for it i want/need to have a nose job as i cannot breathe through one nostril as it got bent and broke a fair few times in rugby. however im not allowed it until im 18 and i stop growing apparently according to my parents! have you heard anything about any young people having nose jobs. im not worried about costs because mine is done through nhs as it is medically neccessary. i dont know if i want to go through with it now because no one has really said much about my nose and its not so bad just a bit worse than normal and if it goes wrong then it truly will look bad! do you know the likelihood of it going wrong etc...
cheers

Thanks for the thoughtful replies, I do genuinely hate my nose and I can see why I was bullied for it. Everyday I look in the mirror, do my make-up and feel happy about my skin and my eyes... but my nose is out-of-proportion. The bridge of my nose at the bottom is almost 1.5" and considering I have a very small head (I have to get my beret for the TA specially ordered) it really is obvious.
I've mentioned it my friends and they tell me the truth when I ask them, and they said they can see where I'm coming from. It is obvious. And I hate it.
My step mum said I'm daft, but she has a petite nose and she has huge baps, so she can't see how anybody else can be discontent with their body. She says I should be thankful for what I've got, but that's easy for her to say, she has the physical appearance to be thankful of. (and she's a hypocrite, if she was thankful of everything she wouldn't have 2 tatoos to add to her enjoyment of her body lol)
Kids used to go around a push down their nose so it was squashed on their face and say 'Look, I'm ....... (my name)'. It still hurts me today. as well as the jokes about my flat chest (done by girls because I didn't wear a bra, just stupid little crop tops) and also cos I was the last to start my period. But the breasts have finally arrived though still small and so has my periods which are very very painful and heavy (I don't understand it for someone so small lol) but my nose will never change naturally.

I am in a similar position to you, except I have a particularly large nose, especially when viewed from a profile point of view. For some reason, it never seems as large in photos as it does in video or real life. Even people on the street would comment and laugh at the size of my nose, on one occasion I shouted out "If you want to carry on laughing at me I suggest you make it a bit more discreet!". I've seen people with far smaller noses than me have nose jobs, and sometimes my nose seems like a huge beak for a relatively small head, and I have similar sentiments to you. However, now I have more confidence, I don't let it get to me, although I didn't suffer severe bullying like you did since my nose has only significantly grown in the recent two years. I am contemplating rhinoplasty, but not as an essential, since the average cost is £3000.
The thing is, its not asif it is poitny and big, it is broad and flat, hence being called 'squashed nose'.
Have one 
I had it done last August (I was 18) and it was the best thing I ever did. I had the plaster on for ten days and most of the bruises had cleared up by then and then I just had to be very careful with it - not play sports for 5 or 6 months etc. Its a surprisingly painless process.

I was considering a nose job when I was younger. I am in exactly the same boat as Eien, my nose is quite big so sticks out (i'm a guy by the way). I was also bullied a lot through my school years so my self-esteem has been shattered.
I have recently been rejected by a girl who had shown her interest in me before for 2 weeks and the first thing I thought about was my nose. However I have decided that I am going to try and give myself more chances with girls in the future before I consider a nose job, because if there is a chance a girl will like me for who I am it will mean the world.
I would say only go through with it if your completely sure you will have no regrets and you know there isn't anything else you can improve on your image without needing to go the surgery route, but if you do decide to go through with it I really think thats great and certainly nothing to be ashamed of. Theres no reason why people like us who were born with unfortunately large/ unfortunately shaped nose should have to suffer.
How much does Rhinoplasty cost these days?
Chickadee after you had the operation did you notice yourself as more attractive and did you notice if you were getting more attention from the opposite sex?

Nose, breasts, what next? You need to be confident within yourself, you just seem to be finding flaws in your appearance and then mentioning getting surgery. Before you know it will be an on-going thing. You said you were in-secure, is a nose job really the way of improving this? What if you don't feel secure after your nose job (if you have it) then what?

Terrible attitude. You cant tell someone to be more confident. Plastic surgery is often a last resort for people that are terribly paranoid and obsessive and depressed about how they look. Its amazing how one thing can have such a horrible effect. Its easy for people to sit and tell people to be more confident when they they dont have to go through the daily self-loathing people with this problem often feel.

Total costs were about £3500.
After the op I personally felt more attractive. I felt more confident, generally happier and could actually look in the mirror without feeling bad about myself.
I didnt notice a huge change in the amount of attention....a bit more I think. But often with things like that its only the actual person that is really bothered by it...most people probably dont even think about it.

Not really....i'm just being realistic and offering another opinion. I don't claim to know this person any more than yourself. How do you know anything about me either? So before you go attacking people, take the time to find out.
Time will tell if it was a right decision or not.
I'm the same, only I hate my nose AND chin 
I am thinking about it also. I will look into it in about two years (only when I can afford it)
ps. don't mind the pic, I was very brown (on hol) and drunk

I got my nose smashed in a hockey game and had an operation on the NHS to have it reconstructed, the surgeon did a really good job of it and its back to normal (if not better). It didnt hurt at all it was just so annoying walking round in fear of someone knocking it out of place again, you also look like a complete tool with a pot on your nose. So....for free Rhinoplasty throw a hockey ball at your face really hard....joke.
Thanks for the constructive advice everyone.
As for G4ry, I know you mean well, but I really do try to be confident but as soon as someone gets a camera out, all my feelings about my nose come to the surface.
Its not as if I'm having something done that's hidden, a person's face is the first thing you notice about someone (unless your a guy oggling some girls breasts lol hehe), and all I keep thinking is that they see my nose. Recently I've taken to wearing lots of eye mke-up to try and make my eyes the focus of attention on my face. It does work, but I feel rotten looing at myself without make-up on. Today I had an exam and didn't have time to put make up on, and I found myself feling ugly and getting jealous of girls with really lady-like petite features on their face. For someone so petite, I have a very broad nose... It looks like the nose of a neanderthal. Its sub-human.
I really really think that surgery would benefit me. Though I have to worry about clearing my student debt first and foremost. If I won the lotto on saturday, a nose job would be the first thing I'd do, without a shadow of a doubt.

go to the doctor and he will be able to make you an appointment woth a plastic surgen or point you to a well known private practice. They will be able to give you a consultaion and tell you the costs. Good luck
(ive had surgery too, it made me feel so much better, it was breast reduction though not rhinoplasty!)
