It is common knowledge that the nose forms the central part of the face and even small changes to it can considerably influence the appearance and proportions of the facial features. Rhinoplasty, also known as nose reshaping surgery, has been among the top 5 most sought-after procedures in recent years according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. That may explain why the demand for liquid or nonsurgical rhinoplasty has also been going up.
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty is a minimally invasive technique that uses injectable fillers to contour and reshape the external appearance of the nose. Liquid rhinoplasty is a great alternative for individuals who desire to make changes to their noses but are unable or do not want to undergo a more invasive procedure. In the hands of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is an expert in rhinoplasties, dermal fillers placement can fix unwanted bumps, droopy nose tips, and other minor asymmetries.
The non-surgical nose job addresses concerns such as the nose shape, angle, and bump. It can also be a great option for someone who has previously undergone surgical rhinoplasty but still has some minor irregularities.
Target areas
The liquid rhinoplasty targets the tip, bridge, and side of the nose. Fillers can be injected into any part of the nose to add volume and modify its shape. The procedure particularly works well if you desire to:
- Smooth the bumps in your nose
- Add volume to your nose
- Make the tip of the nose more prominent
- Lift the tip of the nose
It should however be noted that the nonsurgical nose job offers temporary results and regular sessions are needed to maintain the outcomes. It also will not give you the desired results if you want your nose to be smaller or you want to eliminate highly prominent bumps.
The Procedure
The non-surgical nose job is an outpatient procedure and takes about 15-45 minutes to complete. Topical anesthesia may be applied to your nose and the surrounding area in order to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
Your Plastic Surgeon may use any of the following fillers: Radiesse, Restylane, Juvederm, or Perlane. The choice of filler used will depend on its contouring and shaping properties as well as the duration of the results.
Your Plastic Surgeon will inject the filler around the nose and maybe also on the bridge so as to mold and shape the nose to attain the desired appearance.
Botox injections may also be used in addition to smooth fine lines and wrinkles in order to make the nose appear smaller.
Recovery and Results
The nose will appear slightly larger immediately after the treatment. You should avoid massaging it following the treatment or unnecessarily moving it. There will be some minor swelling and bruising but these diminish in about a week and you can resume normal activities in the same duration of time.
The results are immediate and can last for about 3 to 12 months depending on the type of filler used.
