I’m a forty something woman who had a nose job because I had a huge nose that was out of scale with my face with a large bump (I called it a ski slope) that I wanted to change for years. So when the opportunity presented itself I got a rhinoplasty to proportion my nose to compliment my other facial features. I’m glad I did it and I’m very happy with my decision. I had a wonderful surgeon and he made sure that my final results looked natural and not like I went under the knife. If anyone chooses to get surgery, I only suggest they really think about it long and hard and find the right surgeon who will listen to their concerns and work with them to make the right choice, whether it’s full on surgery, some other non-invasive procedure or a non-surgical way of embracing what they already have.

At the end of the day, some things are just personal decisions that people make for themselves and I don’t blame them or beat them up if they chose to enhance or alter their appearance, it’s again a personal choice. Not political but personal.

WTF? I’m black and I have a “thinner nose”. My nose was rounder and flatter in childhood, the older I got, the longer and slimmer my nose grew along with high cheekbones. It’s called growing up. Little Kim, obviously had a nose job and some of those girls are contouring with a makeup brush and highlighting.

I’m black with two black “brown skin” parents with “slimmer” noses like mine. I’m pretty sure we didn’t go under the knife. My sister who is the color of Tisha from ‘Martin’ has a wider nose but light eyes and very light long curly hair and larger lips than me. I myself am caramel with a “slimmer nose” , “slimmer lips” but dark dark eyes, with dark reddish brown curly hair that used to be long before I cut it. Seriously, blacks can have all features. Learn your about your phenotypes.

IF you been called Ugly, Pinocchio, Monkey-Looking, and many other things then you would understand why people get nose jobs. Having a masculine nose as a women is hard! I know because I’ am one of them. I can’t leave my house without getting laughed at and going places is a chore, instead of being fun and getting out. If I get plastic surgery it will be because I want to look good for myself and have the confidence I always had before I got married and had five pregnancies and four live births, separation, and many other things. I still continue to pray to God that he will help me with all my decisions Thanks for reading!

I am a person who has a rather flat and african nose. At first it really bothered me, especially as a child because my classmates and even my family would make fun of me. It really hurt, but as an adult I have grown to accept it. We as human beings have a right to our own opinions and actions, therefore I am not against plastic surgery. However my belief is rather philosophical. We did not create ourselves, a higher power did. He created regions that contrast on so many scientific levels and for a certain purpose. And then he created people in much of the same respect. Who are we to judge what is beautiful or not, if we did not have any thing to do with creating it. People, places or tangible objects are given certain features, properties, and characteristics for a reason. We as human beings have destroyed what is natural and beautiful only to create something synthetic and useless. Thats why the world is what it is today, with the destruction of th beautiful earth (trees, rivers, oceans) and in return the production of cancer, aids, toxic gases etc. Secondly an “opinion” is only what it is:an opinion. It holds no weight unless it is given power. Moreover you can’t hate what you didn’t create.

I mean seriously people GET OVER IT, who hasn’t gone under the knife in holly wood. BLACKS, WHITES, YELLOWS, is not a matter of color. Is a matter of feeling the best you can. Life is one, has to be lived to the fullest, they aren’t hurting anyone, I support bistury 100% lol

Let’s be honest here, the majority of pple who get plastic surgery are white women. They get 90 percent of this country’s plastic surgery. Nose jobs, face lifts butt, lips and breast enhancement, laser jobs, skin resurfacing, hair weaves, foot, ankle and calf reduction. Hair dyed blonde and straightened (don’t get it twisted, there r PLENTY od white ppl who have kinky hair), tanning. So when u talking about ppl who HATE the way they look, you r talking about white ppl. Tell the truth for once!!!

To say BLACKS THAT GET RHINOPLASTYS ARE TRYING TO LOOK WHITE is just stupid. Especially considering that white noses are long, pointy and alot of times crooked. Hell there are more whites fixing their noses than blacks, so what does that tell ya? My sister and dad both have the most perfect noses, and neither of theirs are slim, long or pointy.
