You can ask for it....but you probably won't get it!

Sam Jejurikar, MD answers: Can I ask for Jennifer Aniston's nose when getting a nose job?

Just like a haircut, can I walk into a plastic surgery consultation with a picture of Jennifer Aniston and say "I want that nose!"...or is that not helpful and doctors get mad at these types of requests?

Hi,

There's nothing wrong with you requesting Jennifer Aniston's nose; it'll give your surgeon some insight into your aesthetic ideals.

That being said, results in rhinoplasty are highly variable on the characteristics of your nasal skin, nasal bones  and cartilage.  Your surgeon can try to mimic the shape of someone else's nose, but almost certainly will never be able to achieve it exactly.

Hope this helps.  Best of luck.

Helpful?
