Weight and height requirement for rhinoplasty?

amber1980Dec 19, 2014
I just tried to book a consultation for lenox and was told I needed to be 175 pounds for my 5'4 height in order to get rhinoplasty..I've never heard of that..is that something new? I can understand if I was trying to get lipo or anything bodywise. Does NYEE have the same requirment? I called and waiting on a callback to see if I can do a consultation with them.
