Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Filler

Uses dermal fillers to temporarily change the shape of the nose, also called a liquid or non-surgical nose job.

About Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Filler

Overview

Providers perform nonsurgical rhinoplasty by injecting dermal fillers to temporarily reshape the nose—a procedure often called a liquid or nonsurgical nose job.

Unlike traditional rhinoplasty, this approach offers subtle enhancements such as smoothing bumps or refining contours. However, it cannot reduce nose size, and the results typically last up to six months.

Therefore, patients seeking more dramatic or permanent changes may benefit more from traditional rhinoplasty.

Ideal Candidate

Ideal candidates are those with a bump or hump on the nasal bridge, inadequate nasal definition (e.g. broad, wide, or flat nose), or asymmetry of the nose.
Those with a drooping nasal tip may also benefit from injectable fillers.
Have realistic expectations and understand filler can not make nose smaller or narrower.

What to Expect

Before the procedure, the healthcare provider will engage in a discussion with the patient regarding their aesthetic objectives and potential alterations to the nasal structure. It is important to note that certain individuals may not be deemed suitable candidates for nonsurgical rhinoplasty, in which case alternative treatment modalities can be considered.

Throughout the procedure, an anesthetic may be utilized to desensitize the skin prior to the injection of filler into specific areas of the nose to alter the shape of the nose.

When administered by a competent healthcare provider, this procedure can produce impressive outcomes that can endure for up to six months.

The benefits of nonsurgical rhinoplasty include immediate results, minimal downtime, and the option for reversal if desired.

Recovery

It is advised to refrain from disturbing the treated area following a cosmetic procedure. Touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to the area can potentially displace the filler or lead to complications. Additionally, it is recommended to avoid facials or massages for the first two weeks post-treatment.

Similarly, intense physical activity should be minimized for the first 24-48 hours after the procedure. Vigorous exercise can increase blood flow, potentially causing the filler to move from the treatment area.

Common side effects such as mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection site can be alleviated by using a cold pack. It is suggested to avoid aspirin and alcohol, as they can exacerbate bruising.

Furthermore, exposure to sun and heat should be limited as they can worsen swelling or discomfort post-treatment.

It is advisable to strictly follow the aftercare instructions provided by your healthcare provider

Results

It is advised to wait at least 2-3 weeks for filler to settle before making any adjustments
Filler can last up to 12 months based on type of filler used

Safety Profile

Nose fillers have an increased inherent risk of vascular compromise due to the location of nasal arteries, with a higher potential for retinal occlusion if filler is injected into a vessel.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is biocompatible and naturally occurring in the body, therefore it does not typically elicit immune responses, however may form nodules in some cases.
Additionally HA fillers require minimal downtime.-Another feature of HA fillers is the ability to completely dissolve if a complications occurs or undesired effects.

Cost

The average cost of non surgical rhinoplasty is $700-1500. Due to the complexity of the area cost varies significantly.
