Why would somebody want to get plastic surgery to make them look like a rhinoceros?
A friend of mine is getting plastic surgery on her nose. She says it's called rhinoplasty. Does this mean they'll make her nose look like a rhino's? Are they going to put a horn on it or something?

- Um...yeah...I think they will put a horn on her or something. That must be it. lol
- Why not? I had uniplasty. I had a horn sugically implanted into my forehead to look like a unicorn.
- Many people desire to have this done. I do even! I also want my parents to make me a mud pit in the backyard so I'll have some place to roll on those hot summer days. Rhinos rock!
- to stand out i guess
- no-it is a way of plastic surgery which is often used for the face silly billy(though you have a good sense of humour!!!!!
- Rhino is a medical term that refers to nose.
- Oh dear! look up some latin. I hope your friend is happy.
- Rhinoplasty is the name for the procedure commonly known as a nose job. Your friend will not look lie a rhino.
- i really don't know, there are so many medical words that i don't understand
- Rhinoplasty (Greek: Rhinos, "Nose" + Plastikos, "to shape") is a type of plastic surgery that is used to improve the function (reconstructive surgery) or appearance (cosmetic surgery) of a person's nose. Rhinoplasty is also commonly called a "nose job". Rhinoplasty can be performed to meet aesthetic goals or for reconstructive purposes to correct birth defects or breathing problems.
- It's just another word for this kind of procedure, nothing serieus,a little bump ,or making it smaller, just a modification. Stll think it's waste of money,
- Rhinoplasty is the name for a nose job. The 'rhino' part just means nose. Kinda like how a rhino is known for its funny nose, enough so that it's called the 'nose horn' or rhinoceros.
- That sounds weird. Why would your friend want to look like a rhino?
- lmao trini, straight from wikipedia... ...x
- Rhino is the nickname of Ryne Sandberg, who played 2nd base for the Cubs in the 80s. Plasty is Latin for Plastic. So, obviously, your friend's surgery is to get a plastic baseball player attached to her nose.
