Abstract
It has frequently been argued that requests for cosmetic rhinoplasty, particularly in patients with minimal disfigurements, may be indicative of psychological disturbance. Authors such as Meerloo (1956) and Roubichek (1960) have further argued that corrective operations in these minimally disfigured patients are contra-indicated, as the patients are always dissatisfied by surgery, sometimes demanding restoration to the original state.
