Can Someone with Hyperthyroidism Have Rhinoplasty Done?

User Avatar

I've been wanting to have rhinoplasty done for a long time now. The only thing holding me back is my hyperthyroid, medication helped my thyroid go hypo but now its back to hyper(it's unstable my doctor has been trying to get it under control). I haven't spoken to my doctor about possibly doing rhinoplasty because she strongly believes in natural beauty. I'm also worried about the scarring because my cuts heals very slowly and turns into scars most of the time. What would you recommend for me?
