Celebrity Nose Jobs: Better Than What Anyone Can Get?

Celebrity rhinoplasty is a hot topic these days. The fans of these superstars are so used to the look of their idols that alterations can cause a lot of fan disappointment. The reality is that a rhinoplasty has no more chance of success on a celebrity's face than yours. They certainly can afford the expensive L.A. and Manhattan surgeons but that is no guarantee that their results will be perfect. Many of the so-called celebrity surgeons have great PR machines but really only average skill sets. If you are interested in getting a rhinoplasty, make sure you do your research and make sure you are happy with your surgeon. If they have enough experience and interest in rhinoplasty surgery, they will give you the best chance for a good outcome. They will probably be more affordable, in addition. Hope this helps.

Any true board certified plastic surgeon treats all patients equally both in and out of the operating room.  We pride ourselves on our results not necessarily our clients status.  Best of luck...RAS 

Great question and as you can see lots of doctors have opinions about this.  It should not matter who you are or how much you pay, a surgeon should always do his or her best.  That being said all surgeons are not created equally and that will be obvious by their training, work and reviews.  So it is not unreasonable that the better surgeons will charge more and hence deliver better results.  Its less about being famous and more about doing your homework and really finding someone who loves rhinoplasty and will take the time needed to get reproducible great results.  Dont be surprised if they charge more.  You sorta get what you pay for

Celebrity is certainly no guarantee of a good facial plastic surgery outcome. We have all seen some of the disastrous results of celebrities whose plastic surgery has gone horribly awry. Celebrities are prone to the same frailties we all have, such as bargain shopping or believing the hype about the plastic surgeon of the moment. Trusting your face to a facial plastic surgeon means that – whoever you are – you need to do extensive research by looking at their websites, verifying credentials, meeting several prospects in person, speaking to former patients, and finding someone you connect with and trust.

People from all walks of life, in every area of the country, and of all incomes have successfully found fantastic facial plastic surgeons to help them. Although an expert may charge more than a “bargain” surgeon, most facial plastic surgeons can work out a payment plan that matches your budget so you can get the best “Hollywood” rhinoplasty you desire – wherever you are.

In general practices that specialize in rhinoplasty surgery and perform this delicate procedure regularly, every week, are able to achieve many realistic goals of patients. A longstanding and high level of dissatisfaction with your nasal appearance may also contribute to a happy outcome. Rhinoplasties ought not to be obvious, so an obvious celebrity nose job may not be as fashionable as you think.Hope this helps.Dr Joseph

Celebrities work in an industry that places much importance on the appearance
of beauty and youth. Thus patients undergoing surgery place a high level of
importance on the results from rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty is not different for celebrities, however they must allow sufficient time for healing and swelling to resolve before their next
professional shoot or public event.In terms of the best rhinoplasty
surgeon, it is beneficial to spend time researching your surgeon, so that you
feel comfortable that the procedure will match your expectations. A surgeon who
shares your aesthetics and is open with you showing you before and after
photographs as well as testimonials.

Thank you for the interesting question! While it is true that many celebrities undergo rhinoplasty (or cosmetic surgery in general), it is not a given that they receive better treatment or get better results. "Perfection" in rhinoplasty is a difficult concept -- there are so many factors involved (the patient's tissues and healing capacity, post-operative care, surgeon skill, etc.) that it isn't really possible to say that one group of patients get better results. The reality is that your relationship with your surgeon is among the best predictors of your results. Price and fame aren't everything.

Celebrity noses are no different from noses in the general public. You just hear more about them and see their photos everywhere.  Their noses are sometimes done for publicity reasons and to make them more attractive at the box office. Although I’ve seen some very good rhinoplasties in the celebrity crowd I have also seen some awful noses. The key is to find a plastic surgeon that is competent and experienced and makes you feel good at the consultation. Look at his pre and postop photos. Does the surgeon act confident? Check his credentials. Make sure that he is a board certified Plastic Surgery.

Celebrities nowadays are scrutinized more than ever.  With numerous social media outlets celebrity gossip, especially celebrity plastic surgery, tends to generate great public interest. Celebrities who appear and magazines or advertising prints often have make up artist and Photoshop to achieve that "perfect" look.  Patients interested in rhinoplasty should understand these differences.  But to answer your question, most surgeons who performed rhinoplasty frequently should be well versed in the most current techniques which are applied universally, to all patients.

There is no special procedure known as a celebrity nose job.  Theoretically, celebrities can afford to go to an excellent surgeon, but typical people can go to excellent surgeons also.  The most important thing is to  go to a surgeon with excellent training and a lot of experience.  I would insist to see many before and after rhinoplasty photos of a surgeon's experience.  

This is a complicated and interesting question.  I don't think there is a simple answer but here are some observations to chew on:

 

1.  More celebrities get nose jobs that non-celebrities--we tend to see more exposure about these famous noses and the good results are showcased.  Without a doubt, bad results surely happen, but these folks are likely to get revisions to fix the problems.

2.  Celebrities are in general already attractive people.  Their noses may require less work and be easier to transform into a great nose.

3.  Celebrity faces are often touched up in facial glamor shots in magazaines--the nose may look different in person.

4.  Anyone (celebrity or not) has the possibility of getting a good result or a bad result depending on a lot of things: your surgeon, your anatomy, goals, complications, etc. 

My advice is to take the celebrity thing out of the picture as you decide what to do with your nose.  Focus on your own nose and yoru goals and your surgeon to make a decision.
