Jennifer Aniston isn’t the only Friends star to have a rhinoplasty. The always quirky and hilarious Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe on the show, had a nose job long before she became a household name.
Doctor Nose Best
According to statistics there are about 60,000 – 70,000 nose jobs performed in the United States, each year and the numbers continue to climb. A small change from a rhinoplasty can make a huge difference. Dr. Louis P. Bucky, a board certified plastic surgeon from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, explains why he finds the procedure so unique. “It’s a different kind of operation than others because we do a lot of etching and shaping, unlike other surgeries where there is a lot of sewing and restoring.” Even working on one little part of the nose, like Kudrow’s bridge for example, can make a great impact on the tip. “This is a surgical procedure that is so enjoyable and interesting,” says Dr. Bucky. Since the nose is part of the face, there is a lot of pressure added for doctors, which is why this operation is of such high importance. Know your doctor and be sure to seek out a trusted, board certified plastic surgeon before undergoing such a significant procedure.
A rhinoplasty like the one Lisa Kudrow received not only changed her personal life, but also allowed her to have many successes in career. The slight difference from a nose job can be the transformation of a lifetime.
