Pre-nup nip and tuck in India
Indian couples planning to tie the knot are increasingly opting for a pre-nup. Not a pre-nuptial agreement covering their future wealth, but pre-nuptial surgery in an effort to attract a suitable partner in an arranged marriage, look perfect for their big day, or to restore bits and pieces that may have been damaged in their days of singledom.

A new study suggests that plastic surgery can improve airway function for patients with severe nasal obstructions. The study, conducted by Sam P.

Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, or surgery to reshape the nose, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems.
If you're considering rhinoplasty, this information will give you a basic understanding of the procedure-when it can help, how it's performed, and what results you can expect. It can't answer all of your questions, since a lot depends on the individual patient and the surgeon. Please ask your surgeon about anything you don't understand.
