Non-Surgical Nose Reshaping

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

The non-surgical rhinoplasty is a new and exciting alternative treatment available to patients interested in improving the shape of their nose without undergoing invasive surgery. It involves using temporary hyaluronic acid filler that is injected into predetermined areas of the nose to help camouflage imperfections such as humps and bumps or even to lift the tip of a droopy nose. Through careful analysis of the ways to improve the appearance and contour of the nose the surgeon will endeavour to make it more symmetrical and streamlined, whilst maintaining a natural look for the patient.

The injectable filler used in this innovative procedure is injected in small amounts and in precise locations so that there is total control by the surgeon to achieve the patient’s expectations.

The results are immediate and last between eight months to a year and as the face changes over the years adjustments can be made accordingly. After having the treatment most patients return to work on the same day, as there is no significant swelling or pain. It is recommended that sunglasses or heavy eyeglasses be avoided for two weeks after the procedure, as the filler material becomes integrated into the skin and cartilage of the nose. Patients are asked to come back to the clinic for the surgeon to review the outcome and to decide whether a touch-up is required.

This procedure is an excellent option for patients who want a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure with no downtime and who are looking for instant results. It can be used to correct minor irregularities after Rhinoplasty surgery, rather than performing a revision under local or general anaesthesia. The benefits of nasal reshaping without surgery are fewer risks, no anaesthetic, quicker healing time, and little or no pain.

Unfortunately, those with major nasal deformities and those who are looking to significantly reduce the size of their nose are not suitable for this non-surgical procedure. For these particular patients, surgical intervention is necessary.
