Many celebrity web sites have postulated whether the incredibly talented Lady Gaga has had a rhinoplasty or not (see photos below).   That is not where I am going with this short vignette.

A few weeks ago at the end of a rhinoplasty I realized that the patient had a “Lady Gaga Rhinoplasty”.   Pre-operatively the patient’s nose had an obviously large dorsal hump (bump on profile), and a bulbous tip (round, undefined nostrils), and was quite wide.  After 2 hours of meticulous rhinoplasty maneuvers, the patient’s nose was a sculpted work of art that those ol’ Italian masters Michelangelo and da Vinci would have been proud of.

My scrub nurse looked at me quizzically when towards the end of the operation I said, ” Thankfully, this young patient will have a “Lady Gaga” nose for the rest of her life!”  She asked, “Dr. Persky, what do you mean?”  I replied, “As with Lady Gaga’s recent hit song, our patient’s nose looks so natural that she will  convincingly be able to answer inquiries about her nose with, “I Was Born This Way!”

As to whether or not Lady has had a rhinoplasty or not, you be the judge.  Happy and healthy Holidays!
