If I get a Rhinoplasty when I am overweight, will my nose still look good after weight loss?

December 17, 2015
Asked By:ilovebelize23 in Isleton, CA

I've gained about 30 lbs in only a couple years motherhood has been very stressful for me. I know I should be more worried about weight loss than plastic surgery. The thing is I do have a very large and long nose so I think a rhinoplasty would be good for me. I would love to do this for myself as soon as possible I need to do something for me. What if I lose a lot of weight though down the road? Could losing a lot of weight adversely affect my new nose?
