This is strictly your opinion, formed by the community around you, which is rhinoplasty-obsessed.
What a loser you are-- there is nothing wrong with any procedure that you do safely and makes you feel more confident.
There is always risk of death when you undergo general anesthesia. It's small, but you still roll the die. It's not nothing, you have a breathing tube for crying out loud.

I had a nose job when I was 16 years old. I always hated my nose and it made a huge difference in my self confidence. I'm grateful my parents let me have the surgery in high school rather than waiting until college.

Once you actually dive into the process -- and it is a great thing to get your kid actively involved in -- I am sure they too will understand the issues. In particular -- get them involved in doctor selection and the financing/insurance issues. It will be a good introduction to these "grown up" issues in an area that affects them personally while not an emergency.
But you do understand that the dr doing the surgery has the best interest in making money off you. As long as he isn’t going to get sued for malpractice or negligence, he doesn’t care

Most of my other friends did it in the 17-18 range. I think summer before college is the perfect time.
Wow. I don’t know a single person who got a nose job in high school or college; lived in an affluent UMC area.
Probably because you are a WASP.
I’m white. But not a WASP. This was in the Midwest

I had mine done at 20 year old over winter break. No regrets. I had a broken nose in elementary school which never healed correctly.
the recovery sucks.

I think the summer between HS and college is a good time to get it, but if she has a really bad nose like I did, then the sooner, the better IMO. I scrimped and saved to do it at 22, but wish my parents paid for it when I was ~16.

Was it not weird coming back to school obviously having had plastic surgery? I don't know anyone who did this (that I'm aware of) and I feel like it would have been obvious.
It was obvious. But that's okay.
People in my high school used to say they had deviated septum surgery. My mom (who was very petty) explained to me that that was a ruse.

No girl wants that, we always hated it and the second we could, all the girls rushed to correct.

Stop with shaming people for wanting to improve their appearance.
Sounds to me like you are just trying to fit into the white Western European society to climb the social ladder.
Yo moron, all the big-nosed girls in Armenia hated their schnobels fifty years ago when they had no idea what the white Western European society was like. Difference was their generation couldn't correct it, and ours can. So we do.
Oh, is it is OK when a white Western European person gets a nose job? Then it's OK?
You're awesome! Preach!
