Non-surgical rhinoplasty is an innovative aesthetic procedure that uses a combination of minimally invasive treatments to enhance the shape and appearance of the nose without the need for surgery. By leveraging modern techniques such as dermal fillers, threads, and anti-wrinkle injections, patients can achieve significant aesthetic improvements with little to no downtime.
What is Non Surgical Rhinoplasty?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty, often referred to as a “liquid nose job,” is a customizable procedure that reshapes and refines the nose using injectable fillers, threads, or botulinum toxin (anti-wrinkle injections). It is a versatile, non-invasive alternative to traditional rhinoplasty.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is suitable for individuals looking to:
• Improve nasal symmetry.
• Smooth out a dorsal hump.
• Refine the nasal tip or bridge.
• Lift a drooping tip.
• Correct minor irregularities without surgery.
How Does Non Surgical Rhinoplasty Work?
1. Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are the most commonly used treatment for non-surgical rhinoplasty. These injectable gels provide volume and contour to correct nasal irregularities.
How It Works:
• HA fillers are injected into specific areas of the nose to smooth bumps, enhance symmetry, lift the nasal tip, or create a straighter profile.
• The filler is carefully sculpted to achieve the desired shape.
Benefits:
• Immediate results.
• Reversible with hyaluronidase if necessary.
• Lasts 6–18 months, depending on the product and individual factors.
Ideal For:
• Smoothing a dorsal hump.
• Correcting minor asymmetry.
• Lifting a drooping nasal tip.
2. PDO Threads
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are a non-invasive treatment used to lift and shape the nose by stimulating collagen production.
How It Works:
• Threads are inserted under the skin using a fine needle. They act as scaffolding to lift and contour the nasal bridge or tip.
• Over time, the threads dissolve, leaving behind newly formed collagen for a more natural lift.
Benefits:
• Immediate lift with natural-looking results.
• Stimulates long-term collagen production.
• Results last 1–2 years.
Ideal For:
• Narrowing and lifting the nasal bridge.
• Defining the tip of the nose.
• Creating a subtle, structured appearance.
3. Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Botulinum toxin (commonly known as anti-wrinkle injections) can be used to relax specific muscles in the nose for aesthetic enhancement.
How It Works:
• Botulinum toxin is injected into targeted muscles to reduce tension and modify nasal dynamics.
• For example, injections can relax the Depressor Septi Nasi muscle to lift the nasal tip or reduce nasal flaring.
Benefits:
• Minimal invasiveness with no downtime.
• Quick results, typically visible within 7–10 days.
• Results last 3–6 months.
Ideal For:
• Lifting a drooping nasal tip.
• Minimizing nasal flaring.
• Refining dynamic irregularities.
Limitations:
• Cannot significantly reduce nasal size.
• Does not address functional issues, such as breathing problems or deviated septum.
Benefits of
