New Nose, New You: How to Choose the Right Rhinoplasty Surgeon

Rhinoplasty is one of the most transformative procedures in facial plastic surgery. Whether you’re seeking subtle refinement or significant reshaping, the results of a nose job can dramatically enhance both your appearance and self-confidence. But just as important as the procedure itself is choosing the right rhinoplasty surgeon — someone with the technical skill, aesthetic vision, and experience to deliver safe, natural-looking results.

In New York City, patients turn to Dr. Maurice M. Khosh, MD, FACS, for expert rhinoplasty care. With dual board certification in facial plastic surgery and otolaryngology (head and neck surgery), Dr. Khosh combines deep knowledge of nasal anatomy with the artistry required to create beautifully balanced outcomes, all without compromising breathing function.

Why Surgeon Selection Matters in Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is a highly detailed and nuanced procedure. Unlike many other cosmetic surgeries, it must account for both form and function. A successful outcome should look harmonious with the rest of your facial features, preserve (or improve) your ability to breathe, and stand the test of time. That level of precision requires a surgeon who specializes specifically in nasal surgery, not just a general plastic surgeon.

In fact, rhinoplasty has one of the highest revision rates among cosmetic procedures, often because the original surgeon lacked the advanced training or experience required to get it right the first time. That’s why selecting a surgeon like Dr. Khosh, who also specializes in revision rhinoplasty, is key to avoiding future complications.

Meet NYC’s Leading Rhinoplasty Expert

Dr. Maurice Khosh is one of the most respected facial plastic surgeons in Manhattan. He is a former president of the New York Facial Plastic Surgery Society, a founding member of the New York Head and Neck Institute, and a clinical assistant professor at Columbia University. Recognized by Castle Connolly, New York Magazine, and Best Doctors in America, he is consistently ranked among the top rhinoplasty surgeons in the nation.

Dr. Khosh is an expert in both open (external) and closed (endonasal) rhinoplasty approaches, tailoring each surgery to the patient’s needs. His deep understanding of nasal structure and function allows him to refine nasal shape while preserving — and often improving — breathing capability.

Whether you’re pursuing a primary rhinoplasty or a revision surgery after unsatisfactory results elsewhere, Dr. Khosh brings an unmatched level of skill and attention to detail to each case.

More Than Just Surgery — A Personalized Approach

At Dr. Khosh’s practice, patients receive individualized care, starting with a thorough consultation where their goals, anatomy, and expectations are reviewed in depth. From pre-surgical planning to post-operative recovery, every step is managed with precision, transparency, and compassion.

Meredith G.
Saw Dr. Khosh for a fractured nose. He reset my nose beautifully (and with little discomfort to me) and then discussed some of my sinus issues with me upon my follow up visit. Never felt like he was rushing me out and felt very confident in his abilities. I would highly recommend to anyone needing plastic or reconstructive options!
Jackie C.
Great front office, really good experience after what was a terrible accident. I was made to feel comfortable. Dr. Khosh is very good at what he does. I'm still healing but I'm confident of the results

After visiting and being evaluated by several doctors, I kept going back to Dr. Khosh. His tranquil spirit and professionalism were captivating. Thank you for a job well done and keeping me calm throughout the entire process. A special thanks to your staff Susan and Christine for all of their support as well. Hi highly recommend Dr. Khosh.

Upon hearing of the overwhelmingly positive experience a friend of mine had in choosing Dr. Khosh as her surgeon, I decided to make an appointment for my own septoplasty/rhinoplasty/turbinate reduction. Although I was slightly skeptical as the praise I had heard seemed a bit hyperbolic, all uncertainty dissipated after meeting the Doctor and his staff. My pre- and post-operative experience was excellent in terms of concerns adequately addressed prior to the surgery and mitigation of any bruising in the convalescent period. Despite my apparent predisposition to rather slower healing, a year after the surgery, my nose looks really pretty and my breathing entirely unobstructed! I highly recommend Dr. Khosh!
Courtney G.
AMAZING!!!!!! I had Dr Khosh perform lipo on my chin/neck and my result is unbelievable! Better than I could have expected! I met with a couple of surgeons and the second I met with Dr Khosh I knew he was the one I was going with. He was compassionate and explained every detail of what would take place during the surgery and what to expect during recovery. I even emailed a few times during recovery with various questions and he got right back to me asap which was really comforting! I honestly fully recommend Dr Khosh, he did an amazing job and is an amazing person.

Not only does his work speak for himself, but he has excellent bedside manner. His kindness and patience is above and beyond. He takes the time to answer to every question you have to help you understand the process while at the same time making you feel so comfortable. From the first consultation i knew i was in good hands. I am so pleased with the result and forever thankful.
