Plastic Surgery - surgeries for minors


Expert: Farbod Esmailian, MD - 11/1/2009

Question
what requirements in detail are needed for a 16 year old minor to undergo a nosejob and neck liposuction?

Answer
Hi Aaron,

If you are a male, you should not be having rhinoplasty at this age.  If you are female, it is border line whether you should also be having rhinoplasty.

You will need a parental or guardian to sign off on your papers and consent.

Good luck.
