hey i have a few questions, if anyone can answer them it would be helpful.
first: how old do you have to be to get cosmetic surgery? (mainly for the nose and chin). how young a patient are the doctor(s) allowed to operate on? i'm not really really young...but i'm still in my teens.
second: does cosmetic surgery stunt your growth? i heard that...and want to make sure. by stunt growth...i mean you can't grow anymore... or won't grow as much anymore. (in height) is this true?
thirdly: how much...or if you could give me an estimate on how much you think it would cost for both a nose job and chin job would be helpful.
thanks :)

Cosemetic surgery does not stunt your growth.
As far as cost goes, that depends on your surgeon. Maybe someone here who has had nose/chin surgery could give you an idea.
You have to be old enough to no longer need your parents permission. Anyone in their teens is still young! I would suggest talking to one of your parents re: what you would like to have done.

Hi There:
I thought I'd just add my two cents. I wanted to get my nose and chin done when I was 17 or 18, but my parents wouldn't let me, and more importantly, wouldn't pay for it! :)
I'm probably getting my nose and maybe my chin done in December. I'm now 25. I wanted to post because your face does change over time...I feel like i have a more "adult" face now than I did back then. My question is whether I would have ended up with a nose and chin that look less appropriate now.
So, you might want to consider waiting - or you might not.
