Worst Case Scenario of Rhinoplasty on a Young Patient?

September 30, 2009
Asked By:jk630 in Chicago, Illinois

It has already been established that I am too young for Rhinoplasty and that I should wait. Although it is difficult, I probably will wait. I am going to see a surgeon soon, and I just want to know from others, what's the worst case scenario being too young for plastic surgery? What are some high, moderate, low risks? What especially makes it risky that I'm too young for the procedure? Thanks.
