Adolescent & Teen Rhinoplasty

The nose is a defining feature of the face and maybe distracting if it is too large or misshapen. Teens and adolescents that are concerned with the shape or size of their nose may lack confidence in their appearance. A rhinoplasty makes the alterations needed to create a harmony of the facial features, improving the overall appearance and a teen’s self-confidence. This can be a rewarding experience if it is done for the right reasons and proper consideration is given by both the teen and their parents.
