My parents said if i want to take the risk then go for it and they will support and look after me when healing process! I'm eighteen nearly 19 so i want to get it done before university starts, so the new people i meet will be used to how i look cause they will think that's just me, instead of noticing a drastic change months later. The thing is though, that being young you experiment with new looks(hair colours, contact lenses, hair extensions etc) I've done all that. So I'm worrying that if i get a nose job my friends and everyone else i know will think I'm fake (plastic) and refer to me in that way which will really upset me or call me vain, self centered or whatever. My friends i can see will hopefully be supportive it's just the people who i know and have met before (people i went to school with, work members, friends of friends) those people are who I'm worried about the comments i might receive to my face and behind my back after getting it done... Should i not get it done? Am i being stupid?!

 If you feel the need to have this done, then go for it.If your so called "friends" feel the need to question you about it, or make fun of you, just tell them you've been having breathing problems for years, and finally decided to have it corrected. Nothing more! Besides, true friends support each other, not find fault or put each other down.If these are the kinds of "friends" you have, your better off without them.It's your happiness that matters here. If they don't like it...SCREW EM!

 Well, I'm up in the air on this one. Because I want you to be happy with yourself as you are. Plastic surgery doesn't fix what is usually a bigger self-esteem issue. So if you are searching for happiness, you will only find it through yourself and way of thinking - not superficial adjustments.
But, the bottom line is this: you say you want to get a nose job for YOU and no one else. So who the hell cares what people will say? This is about you and what you want, not about what everyone else thinks. If you want a rhinoplasty, that's no one else's business and they they should keep their opinions and comments out of it. They shouldn't comment to your face or behind your back if you decided to get a tummy tuck, or wear leopard print overalls for the rest of your life.
If you are wanting to make this decision for YOU, you can't be concerned with other people's opinion. You are turning to strangers on the internet asking, "should I do it? Am I stupid?" - Well, you're not stupid, but only YOU can answer the first question. Good luck, sweetness!
