When does your nasal bone stop growing?

September 1, 2014
Asked By:Niicole1235 in New York, NY

I have a low nasal bone and I was wondering will it ever grow taller. If not, I was thinking about changing it. However, I'm still in my early teens so I will first wait. If the nasal bone does continue to grow, could you give an approximation (e.g. 1 mm)?
