Injectable Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, the surgical straightening and shaping of the nose, is the second most popular plastic surgery procedure in Australia. Injectable rhinoplasty is a modern alternative to surgery, providing excellent results without the risks associated with surgery.

As you can see from the injectable rhinoplasty before and after photos below, non-surgical rhinoplasty eliminates the bumps and variations that interfere with facial symmetry. It is even more precise than traditional surgery, and it relies on the same fillers that are time tested and proven effective at correcting facial wrinkles. When used to perform a non-surgical nose job, these fillers add shape to the nose so that it is more in harmony with the rest of the patient’s face.

THE PROCEDURE

What to Expect from Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

Liquid rhinoplasty offers several advantages over a traditional nose job. For one, it’s a lot more affordable. It’s performed as an outpatient procedure without the need for anaesthesia. There aren’t any hospital fees or long recovery periods. People who have considered having a nose job for years but who didn’t want to undergo the surgical procedure have the option to get a nose job without surgery, a long recovery time, or worries about achieving a desirable outcome. Non-surgical rhinoplasty is not considered permanent. The results last up to two years. If you decide you want more or less, a second liquid nose job is an option down the road.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Non-Surgical Nose Job?

Although injectable rhinoplasty doesn’t decrease the size of your nose, it is effective at reshaping the nose of patients with:

  • Bumps
  • Indentations
  • Dents
  • Hollowness
  • Flat Nasal Bridges
  • Asymmetric Noses

If your nose has a downward tip, the surgeon can use liquid rhinoplasty to raise the tip. This exciting new procedure is effective at correcting a broad range of mild to moderate imperfections. If you’ve been considering a nose job but were afraid of surgery, non-surgical rhinoplasty might be the ideal solution for you. If you want a more symmetrical nose that doesn’t require reducing the width or length, non-surgical rhinoplasty might provide the flawless symmetry you’ve always wanted for your face. There’s no bleeding, swelling, or risk of complications. The cost of a non-surgical nose job is much less than that of a surgical procedure, and you can usually get back to work on the same day as your procedure.
