Alar base reduction for 14 yr old girl; is it too young?

March 2, 2014
Asked By:therealme in Malaysia

My 14 years old daughter is a laughing stalk for having big Asian nose and it widens when she smiles. We're thinking for doing alar base reduction, but afraid she's a little too young for it. Is it okay for her to do the simple nip on her nostrils?
