How can I persuade my parents to allow me to have a nose job? (Photo)

February 14, 2015
Asked By:6600SKW in Cerritos, CA

Now that it's been unofficially confirmed that I have a diverted septum and that rhinoplasty is an option for me.I'm eager to undergo the surgery.The only problem is that I'm still only 14(soon to be 15)and I haven't mentioned anything about it to my parents.Money would probably not be a problem, but morally, my family has always been very oldfashioned.The thought of asking for a nose job as a teen seems like a sin.I have slight breathing problems (not terrible)and wondered, is it worth it?
