Liquid Rhinoplasty With Fillers – Non-Surgical

Non-Surgical Nose Reshaping

Liquid Rhinoplasty With Fillers – Non-SurgicalLiquid rhinoplasty refers to a noninvasive procedure for the purpose of improving the shape of the nose. The procedure involves using injectable filler that is administered through tiny needles to shape specific areas of the nose.

Liquid Rhinoplasty Procedure

Liquid nose job or rhinoplasty is a great alternative to invasive procedures for improving the appearance of the nose. Patients can now make changes to their nose without having to get a surgery. Your nose can be reshaped by strategically placing dermal fillers. Droopy tips and unwanted bumps can also be fixed.

Patients can obtain Botox injections in muscle paralysis rhinoplasty to smooth out wrinkles and lines. This allows the nose to appear smaller in size. The following dermal fillers are usually used in a liquid rhinoplasty:

  • Perlane
  • Restylane
  • Radiesse
  • Juvederm

Duration of results and intrinsic properties of the dermal filler will determine the choice of filler to be used. Restylane, Perlane, and Juvederm are hyaluronic acid based compounds. The results don’t last as long as Radiesse which is a hydroxyapatite material based filler.

Between 0.1-1 cc of dermal filler is typically used during liquid rhinoplasty. However, you should know that every nose is unique and may require different amounts. Topical numbing cream or local anesthetic is used in the area before administering the injection. Your treatment provider will determine the treatment sites based on your desired appearance.

Recovery Duration

You should expect to experience pin prick marks, redness, minor bruising, and swelling following a liquid rhinoplasty. Bruising and swelling becomes more apparent on the second day.
