With parental consent, a 14 year old female who has completed growth can be considered for a rhinoplasty.Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
Absolutely! As long as the patient is healthy, mature, recognizes a nasal problem, and wants to modify it, nasal surgery can be performed safely and produce satisfactory results. Of course, a parent or guardian over 18 must sign a consent for the patient.I have performed countless of cases of nasal surgery on girls entering high school without complication.Consult a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with experience in nasal surgery.Best wishes
