Rhinoplasty Reviews
Dr. Khorsandi is the Best !!! He is extremely skillful, professional, and kind. I enjoy his sense of humor and his team is amazingly kind and professional. Dr. K listened attentively to my concerns regarding my nose. I had rhinoplasty four months ago and i am in love with my new self!!! I am a completely different person. Ever since surgery my self-esteem has drastically improved. Since i was 14 years old i could never take pictures because I hated my nose! Can’t believe how beautiful i look when i take pics. now finally at age 35!! Most importantly, I feel beautiful and attractive !! It’s amazing how skilled top-notch best of the best professionals such as Dr. K can impact/improve your life!! I did extensive research to make sure i had found the right surgeon. He was highly recommended and i am extremely pleased with my results. Only regret i have is not having found him sooner! My nose is symmetrical to my face and proportionately smaller. There was some swelling however, Dr. K is a perfectionist he give injections to reduce swelling on my tip. It’s looking beautifully perfect ! Im loving my results. Can’t thank Dr. K and his team of wonderful staff enough for making my experience memorable!!
Been a patient since 2020. My experience with Dr K (and the entire team at VIP) has been so positive that I come here all the way from Massachusetts. Whether we are touching up my filler or undergoing surgery (ive had incredible results with breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, face/neck lift, and upper bleph) Doc will always be straightforward about being realistic with expectations, its easy to get carried away and expect him to perform mircales lol. I suggest anyone interested in getting work done.. try to be as specific as possible with what your desired outcome is, that way you can learn the most upfront and there wont be any surprises in the end. I noticed some of the negative reviews are from people that have never even stepped foot in the office, its like they just saw an article and decided to dogpile, how is that fair? Try having some perspective and understanding before spreading negativity.
I just celebrated 10 years of being a faithful client of Dr, Choi. Dr Choi, at VIP Surgery, has been keeping me youthful all these years. He did a natural lower facelift back in 2014 However, since I grew up under the unforgiving sun of South America. I always thought the sun damage was pretty much done, but Dr, Choi confidently assured me, " I can get rid of these sun and age spots for you." So, we started a "ZO SkIN HEALTH by Zein Obagi" skin treatment program back in January 2024 which includes among others the following steps: Cleansing, exfoliating, toning, pigment control and deep repair of texture and wrinkle. My skin is not only 95% free of the sun/age spots, but also my fine wrinkle and skin 's texture are greatly ... greatly improved. Actually, now in my 70's my skin looks better than ever before! So, I highly recommend Dr. Choi for any of your skin concerns. If you want an honest doctor that won't oversold you anything with a magnificent magic hands, with an humble and unassuming personality with a brilliant mind, come and see Dr. Choi! You won't be disappointed!
Over the last 20 years I've had several procedures among others rhinoplasty, facial and body sculpting with less than satisfactory results. After years of searching and research I felt I had finally found the right Surgeon and after completing several surgeries with Dr Khorsandi I can confidently say I wasn't wrong. Prior to deciding to go with Dr. Khorsandi I decided I wasn't going with just good enough I would only proceed with the best this was a requirement. I required a surgeon that had a certain artistry, the discerning eye of an artist, talent, knowledge and confidence in their ability to do what I wanted. Dr Khorsandi checked off all these boxes. I was confident he would provide me with the outcome I desired. I decided to go ahead and move forward with facial and body surgeries and I'm happy I did. Dr Khorsandi and his staff are incredible, especially his coordinator Patricia Ramos, who was my first point of contact when I first inquired about surgery. Patricia answered probably hundreds of questions without making me feel like I was annoying or obnoxious which I appreciated. She is sweet, personable and always follows up 24/7 no matter how small the concern or concern. The staff is world class and you truly feel like a VIP. As you can guess I asked Dr. Khorsandi hundreds of questions, provided photos of what I desired and he always answers all my questions and always listens to all my concerns. I'm a perfectionist and hard to please and somehow to my satisfaction he always finds a resolution that I’m happy with and that just reinforces my decision to choose him as my Surgeon and why I love this guy. Dr. Khorsandi's eye for the male and female aesthetic (I’m a man) and his artistry with the scalpel is unmatched. He makes men look masculine and handsome and woman look beautiful. I wasn’t very attractive when I walked into his office but I am now. I have to mention he is extremely kind and courteous. He is compassionate and makes me feel comfortable every interaction, every appointment pre or post op. He is sincere and also truly cares about your results. I can't recommend Dr. Khorsandi and his staff enough, words cannot explain how happy I am with the decision I made to have him as my surgeon. I expected my results to be good, but I did not expect them to be this good. Dr. Khorsandi exceeded all expectations and again if you're looking for a surgeon I can't recommend him and his staff enough.
My name is Flora Kovacs ,,. Dr. Khorsandi did my facelift, I have to admit I was nervous, bc I’ve never been to him before but I decided to give him a chance since I couldn’t make time to go to my Beverly Hills Dr… I have to say Dr. Khorsandi did a better job than any overpriced Beverly Hills Dr. I am extremely happy with my results, here is a picture of me 2 weeks after .. I will post more once I’m fully healed

Am I a Good Candidate for a Rhinoplasty?
Adults and teenagers over 16 years of age are candidates for cosmetic nose surgery. If you find yourself frustrated with the overall look of your nose and have areas you would like to enhance or repair, this surgery may be the ideal answer. It is important that realistic expectations are discussed, as your overall facial appearance will be changed. In addition, facial maturity should also be complete. This will be addressed during your consultation, especially for teens.
What to Expect During and After Rhinoplasty
After finishing your surgery, Dr. Khorsandi places absorbable sutures inside the nostrils. These sutures do not require us to remove them. Several small non-absorbable stitches are placed in the incision at the base of the nose. We can remove them in about 5 – 7 days after your surgery. You will also have soft silicone splints in the nose, which we remove during the post-operative period. For additional protection during recovery, patients wear a rigid splint on the back of the nose. You should avoid blowing your nose during the first week; however, you can use a saline spray to flush the nostrils. Finally, we highly recommend sleeping with your head elevated for the first 48 hours.

Learn MoreRhinoplasty Surgical Technique
Rhinoplasty surgery is considered an outpatient treatment. We will perform your surgery at an accredited surgery center with general anesthesia. Depending on your individual needs, the cartilage may be reshaped, partially resected, sutured, and/or resuspended. Dr. Khorsandi may use cartilage grafts to enhance certain parts of the nose, improve breathing, and open up the airways. If performing a revision rhinoplasty surgery, we may need to harvest additional cartilage from behind the ear or another location. Usually, the bony parts of the nose need to be corrected with precise fracturing and resetting.
How Much Does a Nose Job Cost?
Patients can expect to pay around $10,500 for rhinoplasty surgery. More complex cases with skin and fat grafting or cartilage reconstruction raise the procedure's price. We believe in doing things right the first time. That's why your consultation will never be rushed, nor will your surgery. Dr. Khorsandi is the only Las Vegas, NV board-certified plastic surgeon who is a member of the Rhinoplasty Society. This organization is comprised of medical professionals who take a special interest in rhinoplasty surgery.
Rhinoplasty FAQs
Are there nonsurgical options to change my nose?
If you want to smooth the appearance of lumps and bumps on your nose, a wrinkle filler (like Restylane® or JUVÉDERM®) might be an option. A filler can temporarily correct minor imperfections, which may help you decide to proceed with rhinoplasty. Nose surgery is better for larger changes, long-lasting results, and improving the internal structure for better function. At your consultation, Dr. Khorsandi will let you know if you may be a candidate for nonsurgical nose reshaping.
Can I combine nose surgery with other facial surgeries?
Some patients consider combining rhinoplasty with another cosmetic procedure, like cheek or lip augmentation. Combining surgeries for a more dramatic result can be discussed during your consultation with Dr. Khorsandi. Once he understands your concerns and goals, Dr. Khorsandi can help you decide what procedures should be in your treatment plan. Rhinoplasty can often help make your whole face look more balanced, so you should wait to see your results before considering another procedure.
What Are Common Side Effects After Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty patients will experience varying degrees of post-operative swelling. A large percentage of the swelling will resolve within the first few weeks. However, for the next few months, the nose may feel more firm with a small amount of swelling dissipating. Typically, all swelling has resolved within 6 – 12 months, and you can see your final results. Because it takes time for your body to heal, it is essential to realize that you will experience ongoing changes throughout the year with refinement as time progresses.
Do I Need A Nasal Pack?
No. Nasal packing is a thing of the past. Today, our group at VIP Plastic Surgery uses Doyle Splints. These soft, silicone splints help keep the nose straight during the healing process and decrease bleeding. Compared to previous recovery methods, the splints allow you to breathe so recovery is much more comfortable.
Will my insurance cover functional nose surgery?
Although rhinoplasty to improve your appearance is not covered by insurance, if your nose reshaping surgery is considered medically necessary to improve your breathing, some of your costs may be covered by insurance. If you may be using your insurance, please tell Dr. Khorsandi during your consultation. Our office will help you submit any needed paperwork and information to your insurance to process your claim.
Surgical or Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty?
Surgery depends on the patient’s desired results and nose structure. We recommend surgery for patients who want significant changes. If the patient wants more subtle improvements, adding volume can be a simple solution.
Achieve Your Best Nose
Rhinoplasty is a simple option to address the distaste you may feel when looking in the mirror at your facial profile. If you are displeased with the look of your nose or if you are experiencing breathing problems, nose surgery may help. Rhinoplasty is a popular cosmetic procedure with very high success rates. Dr. Khorsandi aims to improve your nose, so your entire face looks more proportionate and attractive. Even minor adjustments can make a huge difference. We encourage you to call VIP Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, NV, and schedule a consultation.
