What Is Rhinoplasty (Nose Job Surgery)?
Rhinoplasty — commonly called a nose job — is a surgical procedure that reshapes the structure of the nose. It can address the bone in the upper portion, the cartilage in the lower portion, the overlying skin, or all three, depending on what you need.
People choose rhinoplasty for very different reasons. Some want to refine a nose tip that feels out of proportion with the rest of their face. Others have a dorsal hump (a raised bump along the bridge) they have been self-conscious about for years. Many patients come in because structural irregularities are genuinely affecting how well they breathe.
For Indian patients specifically, the goals of rhinoplasty are often different from what you might see in Western examples. The most common concerns we see at Pink Apple Aesthetics include:
- A flat or low nasal bridge — wishing for slightly more height and definition without looking unnatural.
- A wide or rounded nasal tip — seeking a subtle refinement that feels right for the face.
- Broad nostrils — wanting a slight narrowing that brings the nose into better proportion.
- A dorsal hump — correcting a raised bump that is visible from the side.
- Breathing difficulties — often caused by a deviated septum or narrow internal passages.
It is important to understand that good rhinoplasty for an Indian face does not mean creating a ‘Western’ nose. The goal is always a nose that sits naturally on your face, suits your ethnic features, and looks like it was always there.
Types of Rhinoplasty in Bangalore
Every nose is different. During your consultation, Dr. Pinky will evaluate your nasal structure, skin thickness, facial proportions, and your goals before recommending the most appropriate approach.
Open Rhinoplasty
A small incision is made across the columella (the strip of tissue between the nostrils). This gives the surgeon full, direct visibility of the internal nasal structure and is preferred when significant reshaping is required — for example, tip refinement, bridge augmentation, or correction of a complex asymmetry. The scar, though technically external, sits in a natural fold and becomes virtually invisible after healing.
Closed Rhinoplasty (Endonasal Rhinoplasty)
All incisions are made inside the nostrils, leaving no visible external scars. This approach is well-suited for more limited corrections such as smoothing a dorsal hump, minor tip refinement, or addressing nasal bone width. Recovery is typically faster with closed rhinoplasty.
Augmentation Rhinoplasty
This is one of the most commonly requested procedures among Indian patients. When the bridge is low or flat, or the tip needs more projection, augmentation rhinoplasty builds volume and height using either cartilage grafts taken from your own septum or ear, or implants in select cases. The result is a nose that looks more defined without looking operated-on.
Reduction Rhinoplasty
When certain features of the nose are disproportionately prominent — a large nasal hump, wide flared nostrils, or an excessively broad tip — reduction rhinoplasty carefully scales these down to bring the nose into better balance with the rest of the face.
Tip Rhinoplasty (Tip Plasty)
A focused procedure that addresses only the nasal tip, without changing the bridge or overall structure of the nose. If your main concern is a rounded, drooping, or asymmetric tip, tip rhinoplasty can make a significant difference with a relatively smaller intervention and shorter recovery.
Functional Rhinoplasty (Septorhinoplasty)
When breathing difficulties are the primary concern — or when they accompany cosmetic goals — functional rhinoplasty corrects the underlying structural causes. A deviated nasal septum, narrow nasal passages, or nasal valve issues can all be addressed. If you have both cosmetic and functional goals, these can be addressed in a single surgery, which is both more efficient and more cost-effective than two separate procedures.
Revision Rhinoplasty (Secondary Rhinoplasty)
If you have had a previous rhinoplasty elsewhere and are not happy with the result — whether due to persistent asymmetry, breathing problems, or an outcome that simply didn't meet your expectations — revision rhinoplasty is performed to correct and refine the nose further. This is a complex procedure requiring an experienced surgeon, as scar tissue from the original operation must be navigated carefully. Dr. Pinky accepts revision cases for patients from across Bangalore and beyond.
Rhinoplasty Surgery Cost at Pink Apple Aesthetics
Rhinoplasty at Pink Apple Aesthetics starts from ₹1,00,000 to ₹1,50,000 (terms and conditions apply). Your final cost will be confirmed after your personal consultation with Dr. Pinky.
We do not publish a single fixed price for rhinoplasty because no two noses — and no two goals — are the same. What you pay depends on what your nose actually needs, and quoting a price before examining you would not be honest.
What your rhinoplasty cost typically includes:
- Surgeon’s fee — Dr. Pinky Devi Ayyappan, MCh Plastic Surgery.
- Anaesthesia and anaesthesiologist’s fee — rhinoplasty is performed under general anaesthesia.
- Operating theatre charges — use of a fully equipped, sterile surgical facility.
- Nasal splint and post-operative dressings — required for safe healing in the first 7–10 days.
- Pre-operative blood investigations — routine health assessments required before surgery.
Post-operative follow-up appointments — Dr. Pinky monitors your healing at scheduled intervals.

Are You a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?
Good candidates for rhinoplasty share a few common characteristics. During your consultation, Dr. Pinky will assess whether you are ready for the procedure:
- Facial growth is complete — ideally 18 or older, when the nasal structure has finished developing.
- You are in good general health — no uncontrolled conditions such as bleeding disorders, unmanaged diabetes, or active infections.
- You are a non-smoker, or can stop smoking — smoking significantly impairs healing and increases complication risk.
- You have realistic expectations — rhinoplasty can meaningfully improve your nose; it cannot create a perfect or idealised nose that ignores your individual anatomy.
- Your motivation is personal — the best outcomes come from patients who want change for themselves, not under pressure from others.
If you have a history of chronic sinusitis, severe nasal allergies, or previous nasal fractures, please mention this during your consultation. These factors are manageable but do need to be accounted for in planning.
