How old do u have to be to get a nose job?

I'm 15 and I have really low self-esteem b/c of my nose.. I have a really big nose (thanks to my mom. :/) and I've been made fun of for too long now. I'm sick of having to live like this! I didn't ask for this, and all I want is to make it smaller. I'm seriously desperate. Please, any advice? Is it possible I could get a nose job? ^^I know I already posted this in another category, but I need answerers from someone who understands.

Don't change your nose to be like everyone else. Enjoy having a unique nose!
you should love the way you are, we are all individual and good looking in our own ways, forget the nose job (its expensive) Hope this helps!
Perhaps there are newer techniques, but in my era most plastic surgeons wanted to wait until the patient was well into adolescence and facial growth completed. Subsequent growth after plastic repair could distort the work.
Most plastic surgeons say you have to be 18 to get any cosmetic surgeries but many will allow any age with parent consent. So...is you parents willing to sign for you to get it done? In my opinion, I would wait until you are at least 18 for the fact that your face has not fully developed. I had mine done at 23 but had wanted it since I was young as I was teased about it. I am glad that I waited because the result is better when your face is fully grown. Good luck and keep your head up. Its just a nose!
