Who is Dr Raj Kanodia? Indian-origin surgeon gets shoutout from Khloe Kardashian for nose job glow-up
The spotlight is on Dr Raj Kanodia, an Indian-origin plastic surgeon in LA, renowned for his celebrity clientele, including Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Aniston.
In a candid moment on social media, Khloe Kardashian opened up about the cosmetic procedures and beauty treatments she’s undergone to achieve her transformed appearance, and an Indian-origin doctor is now in the spotlight.
The buzz began when a UK-based aesthetics doctor shared a video analysing Kardashian’s most recent look from Jeff Bezos’s wedding. The video attempted to break down the enhancements Khloe may have had.
Khloe responded directly to the video, calling it a compliment and confirming that, yes, she has had work done, but nothing she hasn’t already admitted publicly.
She went on to list the procedures she’s embraced over the years: Botox, laser hair removal, gradual weight loss and even salmon sperm facials.
She emphasised that in 2025, there are “many other things we can do before surgery,” but when the time comes and “if I choose to,” she knows “some great doctors”, tagging Dr Raj Kanodia.
