Jessica Iskandar showed off her new nose tip, which was advanced by two to three millimeters during a revision rhinoplasty procedure in South Korea, during a media appearance in Jakarta on Friday.
hot.detik.com reported that the mother of three addressed public curiosity about her bandaged appearance after posting a video from Seoul on November 7, 2026, which inews.id noted drew surprise and widespread questions from social media users regarding whether she had undergone another cosmetic procedure.
The latest surgery follows a previous rhinoplasty in April 2023, which ChatNews.id and Wolipop noted was performed to correct a deviated nasal septum.
- Jessica Iskandar confirmed that her doctor maximized the tip adjustment to between two and three millimeters, adding that the current prominence is primarily due to temporary postoperative swelling.
- Her husband, Vincent Verhaag, said that the revision was kept minimal to match her existing facial bone structure rather than creating a drastic alteration.
- Medical preparation for the procedure included a full CT scan of her skull and general health screenings supervised by an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist, according to hot.detik.com.
Before entering the operating room in South Korea, Jessica underwent comprehensive medical evaluations. Wolipop and Demokratis.co.id documented that her face was marked with surgical planning lines prior to the procedure, while chatnews.id reported that she was accompanied by two friends during her recovery.
Addressing the specifics of the surgery, Jessica explained that her medical team relied on detailed imaging to evaluate her underlying bone structure. “Jadi aku lebih jelasin aja kayak apa yang aku rasa. Terus dokternya melihatnya dari CT scan, soalnya sebelum operasi itu di-CT scan dulu tengkoraknya,” she told hot.detik.com.
Vincent Verhaag emphasized that the scope of the operation was intentionally limited. “Kecil, nggak terlalu yang gimana-gimana kok. Cuma yang dibentuk ujungnya naik 2 mili aja. Bukan yang drastis, karena itu nggak seporsi sama bentuk wajahnya sih, jadinya agak aneh,” Verhaag said, as quoted by hot.detik.com.
While still experiencing swelling and redness around her eyes, Jessica has maintained an active public schedule, visiting local eateries and filming content in South Korea, as detailed by Wolipop. Photos from her social media accounts also showed her celebrating with friends near holiday decorations while occasionally covering her face.
The initial video update posted on November 7 prompted various reactions online. inews.id said that while many followers questioned the necessity of the procedure given her existing appearance, others expressed support for her personal choices.
Reflecting on her apprehension before the procedure, Jessica admitted to feeling anxious during her final preparations. “Sepanjang di ruang operasi sebelum dibius, itu aku masih nangis. Masih kayak, ‘Aduh, gimana ya ini? Mudah-mudahan ini yang terakhir, maksudnya untuk hidungnya, yang terakhir’,” she told hot.detik.com.
