Non Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty, also known as liquid rhinoplasty or a non-surgical nose job, is a cosmetic procedure that uses injectable fillers to alter and shape a person's nose without invasive surgery.
The procedure can address issues like smoothing out bumps on the bridge of the nose, lifting a droopy tip, straightening a slightly crooked nose, or adding volume to areas that need enhancement. A topical anesthetic or a numbing agent is often applied to minimize discomfort during the injections.
Benefits
No Downtime
Patients can return to their daily activities almost immediately after the procedure.
Temporary and Reversible
The effects of non-surgical rhinoplasty are not permanent, usually lasting between 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and the individual’s metabolism. If the patient is unsatisfied, the fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
Less Risk and cost
Compared to surgical rhinoplasty, this procedure carries fewer risks and is less expensive.
Limitations
Structural Changes
Non-surgical rhinoplasty cannot make significant changes to the size of the nose or correct breathing issues. It is best for minor cosmetic adjustments.
