Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty reshapes or restructures the nose for cosmetic or functional reasons — smoothing a bump, refining the tip, improving balance, or helping breathing.

Every plan is tailored to your face and goals. Surgery is done under general anaesthesia in a hospital setting, with overnight stay for close monitoring.

Is this right for you?

  • You want to change the shape, size or tip of your nose
  • You have breathing issues linked to nasal structure
  • Facial growth is complete and you are in good health
  • You want a natural result that still looks like you

Not ideal if: you expect a celebrity “copy,” or you are not ready for a recovery window with swelling and splint care.

Cost

Non-surgical rhinoplasty packages start from ₹40,000. Surgical packages start from ₹1,00,000, depending on what needs to be done. Final estimates are given only after consultation.

Risks & safety

Rhinoplasty is common and well-established. Risks can include swelling, bleeding, breathing changes or the need for a minor revision. We keep you in hospital overnight and follow you closely afterwards to keep these risks low.

01

I don’t want Surgery! Is there any non-surgical option for me?

Absolutely! Non-surgical/ Liquid Rhinoplasty can help correct minor deformities like gaps and flattened areas, by just using injections. The procedure takes less than half an hour, results are immediate and it costs less too! However, any major shape change or size reduction will require Surgery.

02

What’s the actual surgery like? Will there be pain?

The surgery is done under general anaesthesia, so you will be asleep throughout. It usually takes 3–5 hours. Most patients describe the first few days as discomfort and a blocked nose rather than pain, and this is managed with medicines.

03

Is Rhinoplasty Surgery safe?

Rhinoplasty is a common and well-established operation. As with any surgery there are risks, such as swelling, bleeding, breathing changes or the need for a minor revision. We keep you in hospital overnight and follow you closely afterwards to keep these risks low.

04

What should I expect after the surgery?

You’ll stay overnight at the hospital, and leave the next morning. You'll have a splint and bandage on your nose to protect it while it heals. Swelling and bruising are totally normal—especially around the eyes—and most of it fades within 7–10 days. Most people take about a week off from work or college.

05

I have a wedding in three months. Can I get a rhinoplasty done now?

We understand you want to look your best on your big day, and we are here to help. Almost all of the swelling on your face and nose settles by 1–2 months, but your nose appearance keeps improving over the next 3–6 months, up to a year. We recommend getting a rhinoplasty 6 months prior to your wedding for best results, but even 1–2 months may be enough, depending on what changes have been made.

06

I am travelling to India for 3 weeks, and want to get my Rhinoplasty done during this time. Is it feasible?

Certainly. We require a minimum of 2 weeks from you. If you let us know in advance, we can line up the consultation, fast-track your pre-operative workup and pre-book your surgery date. We will also guide you for postoperative care when you go back and follow up regularly via video consultation.

07

Am I too young (or too old) for this?

If your facial growth is complete (usually around age 16–17), and you’re in good general health, you might be a great candidate. We work with a wide range of patients—from teens wanting to correct a bump to adults who’ve been thinking about this for years. It’s never too early (or too late!) to feel great about your nose

08

Will people be able to tell I had a nose job?

That’s completely up to you! Our goal is to create results that look natural and suit your face. Most of our patients get compliments like “You look amazing—did you do something different?” without anyone guessing why. You’ll still look like you, just more confident and more aligned with how you want to look.

09

How much does rhinoplasty cost, and is it worth it?

Prices vary depending on the complexity of the procedure, but we’re always transparent about costs. Non-surgical rhinoplasty packages start from ₹40,000 onwards, while surgery packages start from ₹1 lakh onwards, depending on what needs to be done. Final estimates are given only after consultation.

10

What’s the first step if I’m interested?

Easy—book a consultation! It’s a relaxed, no-pressure chat where we’ll go over your concerns, goals, and what’s realistically possible. We’ll examine your nose, answer all your questions and give you a price estimate. You’ll leave with a clear idea of what rhinoplasty can do for you.

11

Final thoughts—should I go for it?

If your nose has been something you’ve thought about changing—whether for years or just recently—rhinoplasty is planned around your face and goals, and our team will guide you through every step. You deserve to love your profile—and we’re ready when you are.
