At your age, the development of your nose is usually not completely finished, so it is recommended that you wait until it has passed. several years before you consider rhinoplasty, usually at age 18 or older. This is why it is important that all parts of your face, including the nose, are fully developed in order to achieve a stable and natural result. If the deviation is not serious and does not affect your ability to breathe, you may want to consider corrective treatment in the future. Of course, it is important to consult with a surgeon specialized in this type of surgery who will evaluate yourš specific case.
