Breasts, nose, fillers, botox
What did Julia Franzén say about her nose job?
In an Instagram question session reported by Expressen on 8 March 2022, a follower asked Julia Franzén what cosmetic procedures she had had. She answered: “Bröst, näsa, fillers, botox” (“Breasts, nose, fillers, botox”), naming her nose second on a short list she gave with no hesitation.

WhatsAppThat is the full extent of what we rely on here. Franzén's answer confirms a nose job took place; it does not say when, which technique the surgeon used, or how much of the nose's shape changed, so this article does not fill in any of those details. Where the sections below explain the surgery and recovery, they describe rhinoplasty in general, not her treatment.
A nose job on a short, open list
What stands out in Franzén's answer is less the nose job on its own than the way she handled the whole question: four different procedures, listed in one short sentence, with no qualifiers and no defensiveness. Reality TV stars are often pressed on their appearance by followers who suspect, rather than know, what has changed, and a flat list like this one removes the guessing game. It treats a nose job as one ordinary item among several, not as a secret that needed drawing out.

How rhinoplasty is done today
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose, correcting the bridge, tip, nostrils or overall proportions to fit the rest of the face, and can also improve breathing if the nasal septum is involved. It is performed under general anaesthesia.
- Anaesthesia
- General
- Duration
- 1.5–3 hours, depending on complexity
- Hospital stay
- 1 day
- Price at City Medical Centre
- $4,200 instead of $6,000
What exactly is reshaped and how is decided at a consultation, based on the patient's own nasal anatomy and facial proportions, not from a celebrity's list of past procedures.
Who it suits and how to prepare
Rhinoplasty suits people bothered by the size, shape or symmetry of their nose, or by a dorsal hump, as well as those with a deviated septum affecting breathing; the optimal age is 18 to 45, once the nose is fully formed. Preparation includes:
- starting the required tests, including blood work and infection screening, about three weeks before surgery;
- a consultation where the surgeon models the expected result and confirms the plan;
- arranging for someone to accompany you home after the operation, since anaesthesia affects coordination for the rest of the day;
- being realistic about timing: the final shape is judged after the tissues have fully settled, not immediately.
What recovery looks like
A nasal splint is worn after surgery; it, along with stitches, is removed by day 14, with the first follow-up check at day 7. Check-ups continue at 3 and 6 months to track healing, and consultations with the surgeon remain free for a full year after surgery.
The final result — a settled, natural shape — can be judged at 12 to 18 months, once all residual swelling in the nasal tissue has resolved.
How the rhinoplasty result usually develops
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia; a splint is fitted; one day at the clinic.
- Day 7First follow-up check; the splint is still in place.
- Day 14Splint, cast and any stitches are removed.
- 3 monthsFollow-up check; most visible swelling has gone down.
- 6 monthsAnother check-up; the shape continues to settle.
- 12–18 monthsThe final, settled result can be judged.
