Why People Have Multiple Nose Jobs

People tend to have multiple nose jobs for aesthetic reasons. Either the individual is dissatisfied with a previous nose job, or the physician who performed the surgery did not do adequate work. Only rarely are multiple nose jobs performed for medical purposes.

History

• The first nose jobs were performed around 500 BC by a Hindu physician named Sushruta, who tried to reconstruct the noses of individuals who had had them removed as punishment for certain crimes.

Appearance

• We live in a culture obsessed with appearance. For models and actors, whose careers are contingent on how they look, multiple nose jobs are often deemed necessary.

Deterioration

• Occasionally, a nose job may deteriorate over time. For this reason, a second nose job may become necessary.

Medical

• Some people have nose jobs for medical reasons, such as breathing difficulties or a deviated septum. If the change does not work, then further nose jobs may become necessary.

Famous Ties

• While celebrities tend to keep their cosmetic surgery under wraps, some famous people who are widely believed to have had several nose jobs include Michael Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Aniston.
