What's the Downside of Having a Thin Nose?

October 30, 2010
Asked By:Sharpie

I wanted a longer and thinner nose but my doctor said that having a thin nose is bad in the long run. He said I would have problems down the road. That it would change drastically and not look good? Is this true? He says this is not told to most patience and its not right because they might be happy now but will not be later on and will not understand what happened to their nose. Can it be addressed later on?
