Who is Dr Raj Kanodia, the Indian origin cosmetic surgeon to Khloé Kardashian and Britney Spears?
In a world where filters and Photoshop dominate our feeds, Khloé Kardashian just pulled back the curtain—confirming the cosmetic procedures behind her latest glow-up. And at the heart of her transformation? None other than Kolkata-born celebrity plastic surgeon Dr.
Raj Kanodia.
Earlier this week, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star chimed in on a viral Instagram video that praised her appearance at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding in Venice. The video, posted by London-based aesthetician Jonny Betteridge, called her the 'standout face' of the star-studded celebration—and analyzed her stunning look in detail.
Rather than shy away from the speculation, Khloé embraced it.
'I take this as a great compliment,' she wrote, before listing the procedures she's had over the years. 'Nose job,' she added matter-of-factly—tagging Dr. Raj Kanodia as the expert behind it.

Meet Dr. Raj Kanodia
While Khloé's confession sparked headlines, Dr. Raj Kanodia is no stranger to the spotlight. Known as one of the most in-demand rhinoplasty specialists in Los Angeles, his clientele reads like a Hollywood guest list: Jennifer Aniston, Britney Spears, Cindy Crawford, Kim Kardashian, and even Charli D'Amelio.

Kanodia's aesthetic style is subtle and refined—perfect for celebrities who want to enhance their features without erasing their identity.
'The nose should never shout plastic surgery,' Kanodia once said. 'It should whisper refinement.'
Born in Calcutta (now Kolkata), Kanodia graduated from the University of Calcutta Medical College in 1971 before building a global reputation for facial aesthetics. His career took a pivotal turn in the 1990s when John F.
Kennedy Jr. approached him to help redesign the look of presidential candidates for his now-defunct magazine George.
And while his resume boasts decades of work with A-listers, his name keeps popping up—whether it's in Hollywood or at high-profile Indian weddings. Just last year, he attended Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding festivities, where he was photographed alongside both Kim and Khloé Kardashian, as well as Bollywood star Janhvi Kapoor.
Khloé's ongoing openness

Khloé has been candid about her journey with cosmetic treatments before. During the Keeping Up With the Kardashians reunion, she famously addressed the buzz around her appearance.
'Everyone says, 'She's had her third face transplant!'' she joked. 'But I've had one nose job—by Dr. Raj Kanodia—and no one ever asked me!'
Her recent Instagram post seems to echo that sentiment. While she doesn't deny the enhancements, she refuses to let the speculation define her. In a culture where women are often scrutinized for aging or tweaking their looks, Khloé's transparency feels refreshingly real.
And for Dr. Kanodia, the renewed attention only solidifies his place as the go-to name in discreet, elegant transformations—whether it's for a Hollywood elite or a Bollywood beauty.
