Dr. Priya Kesarwani explains when a teenager may be ready for rhinoplasty. She usually wants height to have been stable for about two years, which is often around 16 for girls and 18 for boys. For patients under 25, she likes a trusted family member or friend to join the consultation, and she plans the surgery for long-lasting structure and function.
