When internet sensation Khloé Kardashian made a dazzling appearance at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s lavish wedding celebrations in Venice, all eyes were on her radiant transformation. Dressed in a dreamy Tamara Ralph couture gown, the reality star exuded elegance, but what truly stirred buzz online was her refined facial structure. Social media lit up with speculation until Khloé herself decided to shut everything down.

Khloé's cosmetic journey and the man behind her nose job

In a rare move, Khloé responded to a comment on Instagram, listing out the many cosmetic treatments she has done. Among the more talked-about procedures was her nose job, which she credited to Dr Raj Kanodia, an Indian-origin plastic surgeon based in Los Angeles.

Well, this is not the first time the businesswoman has given a shoutout to Dr Kanodia. Khloé had previously mentioned on the Keeping Up With The Kardashians reunion, "I've had one nose job — Dr Raj Kanodia. I've done injections. Not really Botox. I've responded horribly to Botox."

Who is Dr Raj Kanodia?

With over 2.3 million followers on Instagram and a client list that reads like a Hollywood red carpet, Dr Raj is one of the most sought-after plastic surgeons in Los Angeles. Known fondly as "Doc Hollywood", he is especially celebrated for his refined, scarless rhinoplasty techniques.

In fact, he has performed more than 10,000 rhinoplasty surgeries over the past 39 years, an accomplishment that has boosted his reputation as the best in the business.

Dr Kanodia is a board-certified surgeon who focuses on rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation. His philosophy is very simple yet effective: “A successful rhinoplasty is a marriage between the face and the nose, so the face is perceived as more attractive to the lens of the camera and to the human eye.”

Aside from Khloé, his impressive roster of celebrity clients includes Britney Spears, Jennifer Aniston, Kim Kardashian, Cindy Crawford, Olivia O'Brien, Charli D’Amelio, Camila Coelho, and many more.

In one KUWTK episode, Kim Kardashian is seen visiting his clinic for an EmSculpt session, a non-invasive body contouring treatment that simulates abdominal crunches without any actual effort.

And Bollywood buzz too

Dr Kanodia's popularity isn't limited to Hollywood. He recently made headlines in India when he was spotted at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s extravagant pre-wedding festivities, where he was photographed alongside Kim and Khloé Kardashian, as well as Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor, sparking rumours that his clientele might be expanding into B-town.
