Nose Job?

Question

I’ve been contemplating getting a nose job… honestly for as long as I can remember. 
I was heavily bullied because of my nose throughout most of my childhood/teenage years. I had jokes made, nicknames, numerous put downs, etc. I am now 22, financially stable and considering it because my confidence honestly revolves around my nose. I hate it. It makes me feel so ugly and, as everyone tells me, it’s big. My family says it’s proportionate to my face/body… but I just don’t know. I hate taking pictures of myself, I hate how it flares, I hate it and I hate that I hate it. I can’t even take a “selfie” without having a panic attack… seeing myself in a camera seriously makes me squirm because I get so scared.
Though, I am nervous to get a rhinoplasty because of some of the cons I’ve heard of… but I just don’t know what else to do… one of my biggest concerns with getting any type of plastic/reconstructive surgery is that I’ll look like someone I’m not, but I honestly feel so ugly the way that I am. 
Any thoughts? Your own opinions/personal stories with or without ‘nose jobs’? I’ve tried the whole self love theory but gosh dang is it hard…

Answer

Fuck no!!! 
Your nose looks too nice to risk a botched nose job, and unless you have a really big nose or a hook nose, you’ll probably regret it and find asymmetries in the new nose that make you fixate and overanalyze it. 
Go on Reddit and look at all the botched nose jobs in the plastic surgery sub!!!

Answer

you are wonderfully made by God, the creator of the universe and he made everything perfect.

Answer

I think you have a great nose. You're super pretty also. I think people bully and put down those they are jealous of or threatened by. So I wouldn't do anything based on what bullies think. With that said, it is your body and your choice and I would support whatever makes you feel confident. However, it is important to think about the fact that you will have to live with the new nose you get also. No nose is 100% perfect.

Answer

I think your nose is so pretty. Better than rhinoplasties I’ve seen! 
If you’re open to it, I’d do some therapy to heal from the pain of being heavily bullied during your childhood and teen years. Sounds like the bullying is what caused you not to like your nose. Thats such a shame because your nose is so so perfect.

Answer

Everyone has or has had that one thing about themself that they are self conscious about, this is human. If you were to get a nose job & it turned out perfectly, you would find something else that you don't like. It's mental & you need to fix the mental aspect of what is bothering you. If all school kids could pick on was your nose then that means they had to grasp for straws to find a flaw. As you get older those things become minimal. Focus on the things that actually matter

I didn’t even needed to read until the end. Just Doooooooon’t!! Your noise is my dream!! I have had accidents and ended with 2 surgeries, I am grateful for it now don’t get me wrong but nothing is comparable to the natural beauty that you were born with. Don’t let other peoples opinions/ insecurities/ jealousy gets into you and dictate how you feel about yourself or live your life! The American society is very toxic, everyone bullies everyone and ALL think they’re entitled and privileged!!!! Don’t do that to yourself and accept yourself for the way you are and love it to the core! You are too young and beautiful. And btw, not all nose jobs are glamorous, they usually take more than one surgery to get the results desired! And sometimes things get worse throughout the process, etc! Please don’t do it, your nose fits perfectly with your face and is beautiful. Good luck 🍀

Answer

i feel like if you wait 5 years it won’t matter to you at all anymore

Answer

Your nose is super cute! I feel the same way about mine, Mines bigger and looks like a bird beak when i smile, I wanted to get mine fixed so bad but I'm scared of surgery so instead I pierced it and it has made me feel so much better about it! 😊

Answer

You have a completely “normal”, proportional nose. I’m genuinely curious as to who is telling you it’s big and why anyone is commenting on your appearance. 
I’d leave it alone.

Answer

I got a nose job three years ago. It had a similar arch/bump in the middle like yours and a slight flare of the nostrils and I also got bullied a lot.
My nose job was also a turbinante reduction and deviated septum correction and they added my cosmetic requests. 
The surgery took longer than expected (7 hours compared to the 3 they told me about). Heavy bleeding and numbness in my nose for weeks. I’m still numb on the bottom of my nose.
No scarring which is cool! 
The nostrils are a little lopsided but I’ve mad my peace with it. 
For what it’s worth, I agree with your family. 
It definitely did boost my confidence though. Once it’s fully healed (six months but a full year for all swelling) I get a lot of compliments from people who know and people who don’t, can’t even tell. 
I wanted one for years and didn’t bite the bullet until I was 27, after all the pre-op stuff I didn’t actually have the procedure until 28.
I probably wouldn’t have done it if I didn’t have underlying problems…. But I absolutely don’t regret it 😃 
It will change how your entire face looks 😅 for like a year my mom was like “wow it changed how you look!!”
