Najim's Rhinoplasty Story

Najim is a girl who travels from Australia to Iran to undergo cosmetic surgery with Dr. Hamidreza Hosnani. Here you can see the illustrated story of Najim’s rhinoplasty along with a narrative video.

In this section, we share the story of a girl named Najim, who traveled to Iran from Australia to undergo rhinoplasty with Dr. Hosnani. Najim is 19 years old and has been thinking about nose surgery for several years due to the specific shape of her nose.



In Australia, Najim visited several doctors for consultations, but the prices were very high.

"The prices were very high—$15,000."
"$15,000 for a nose job?"
"Yes, $15,000 for a nose job."



From Sydney, she sent her photos via WhatsApp to Dr. Hosnani for a consultation. After a few days, she received a comprehensive analysis of her nose type, the procedures to be performed during surgery, and the cost of the surgery. The prices were incomparable to those in Australia; she couldn't believe it. The total cost of the surgery was one-fifth of what she would have paid. Furthermore, she knew that Iran is the capital of rhinoplasty in the world and that she could achieve the best surgical results in Iran.



She made her decision, packed her bags, and arrived at the airport in Iran.

At the airport, she saw her name on a white sign held by her driver and headed to her hotel with him.

This is Dr. Hosnani's clinic on a summer afternoon in 2017 (96 in the Iranian calendar). The office is crowded as usual, and Najim waits a few minutes to see Dr. Hosnani.

During the consultation session, Najim asks the doctor for a natural, small nose without an arch, and for it to be straight.



Before the surgery, a blood test is performed to ensure the patient's health.



After the blood test, the patient must go to medical imaging centers for CT scans. CT scans are necessary to be included in the operating room file and to increase the surgeon's precision during the procedure.



Dr. Hosnani's practice includes meeting the patient one more time in the operating room before anesthesia so that if the patient remembers any new points, they can tell the doctor and finalize the agreement.

Everything is ready for a perfect surgery.

"Are you ready?"

By putting on the oxygen mask, Najim slowly falls asleep under anesthesia.



Well, Najim is slowly starting to recognize faces here and is waving at us. The doctor is coming over now to talk to her and ensure her condition is stable.



"Hello."
"Your surgery was excellent."
"The result of the surgery was very good."

The nurse places an ice pack on her face and moistens her dry lips with a tissue. After an hour of monitoring vital signs, the patient is transferred to the inpatient ward to rest. Her parents and companions can visit her there.

After a few hours, on the evening of the surgery day, the patient is discharged from the clinic and returns to the office after one week of rest for a follow-up visit.

One week has passed. We are here before the removal of the splint. Let's go see how she is doing.

"Have you seen your photos on Instagram?"
"Yes, I really liked them. I showed them to everyone."
"Very good. Now we are going to remove your nasal splint."



The nurse administers four drops of "RhinoSaline" into each nostril. The patient must continue this process herself for up to a month afterward.

"Do you like your nose?"
"Oh, I love it. It's much better than I expected."
"Very small and cute."
"Of course, it's swollen right now."
"It will get much smaller."



Dr. Hosnani examines Najim's nose again and provides the necessary explanations.

"The inside of your nose is in very, very good condition. The nasal septum is straight. I am very satisfied with your surgical result."

It has been almost two months since the surgery, and Najim is now happily taking photos from all angles of her face.
