Question

I just wanted to know what age does a male have to be to have rhinoplasty?

Answer

I typically carry out rhinoplasty interventions after the age of 18 for both male and female patients. The primary concern is that the facial development is still in a relatively rapid change period earlier, and I prefer to consider these changes at a time when the facial development becomes slower.
