probably in your twenties b/c your face is still growing to fit your nose.

18 when you become of age.

I think it would be 18 years old, in less there is a medical need for this procedure. Maybe an underage person has an accident in which their nose is injured/damaged in where the patient can’t breath very good.

They’d do it on a new born if he had a blocked breathing passage.
Otherwise, any age that a parent and doctor will consent too.
It used to be the number one 16 yr old birthday present in beverly hills. Now it’s a boob job.

Most good doctors want you to wait until you face has stopped growing so it can depend on each person. I had mine done when I was 21 years old. A friend in high school had her’s done over winter break senior year.
Find a good doctor (ask people & see they suggest- this is what I did), one who will make your nose fit your face, not change it so much that you no longer look like you, & is really artistic. The only difference w/ mine is there is not more bump. Another friend had hers done a few years ago- she looks like a completely different person & lots less pretty. ( I would never tell her this). Find out exactly what they recommend you do & know that it is ok to say no to something if you feel uncomfortable.
If you have more questions, you can e-mail me.
