Have you ever heard a teenager or young adult say they want a nose job or some kind of plastic surgery and cringed? 

Young people getting plastic surgery is controversial, but it makes some of them very happy, especially if they have dramatic facial features.

One man, who’s been reconnecting with his estranged teenage daughter, booked her a nose job consultation appointment as a birthday gift because he knows she really wants one.

He’s 33-years-old and had a baby when he was very young. He didn’t feel ready to be a parent. After his former partner gave birth to his daughter, Sally, she also decided she wasn’t ready to be a mother.

Thankfully, his older brother Noah and his wife decided to take in Shelly and raise her as their own.

For most of Sally’s childhood, he kept his distance, as he didn’t want to make her feel unsettled, and she really enjoyed living with Noah and his wife.

However, over the last few years, he’s been reconnecting with her, and they’re trying to form a relationship.

As Sally’s gotten older, she’s developed the same nose shape as him, and unfortunately, it makes her self-conscious.

“She said before that she can’t wait until she’s able to get a rhinoplasty operation,” he explained.

“I can see why; we’ve both got absolutely huge, crooked noses. She does rather suit it, [though]. It compliments her face well, especially her lips and big eyes.”

“I’ve put my own opinions on her nose aside, and for her seventeenth birthday, I managed to get her an appointment to get her nose done.”

He took his daughter on a trip to the city for her birthday, where she had a consultation with a plastic surgeon.

Where they’re from, those under 18 cannot get nose jobs without their surgery being approved by a surgeon. After the consultation, he and Sally visited a museum and had a nice bonding day.

When he brought Sally back to Noah’s house, he told Noah and his wife Sally’s plastic surgery had been approved.

“Noah ended up getting upset and angry,” he recalled.

“He said that I had no right to alter Sally’s appearance, and her mum agreed, saying that Sal should learn to love her insecurities rather than rush into surgery. I told them that I wasn’t altering her appointment. Sal has wanted a nose job; that’s her prerogative.”

He feels Sally shouldn’t have to walk around with a nose that makes her feel insecure and shouldn’t be forced to accept it if she doesn’t want to.

Since their initial argument, Noah and his wife have been cold towards him. When he talked to his girlfriend about the incident, she agreed with Noah, saying that while it was nice to offer to pay for Sally’s surgery, he should’ve told her to wait until she was at least in her 20s.

Was he wrong to set up his daughter’s nose job?
