The use of dermal fillers, like Restylane Perlane, Restylane Lyft, Juvéderm Ultra 3, Juvéderm Voluma, Juvéderm Volift, in correcting volume and alignment issues with the nose, have revolutionised the field of Rhinoplasty. Dermal fillers can be used effectively in correcting minor bumps on the nose, they can also be used to raise the bridge of the nose, give the nose a straighter appearance, raise the nose tip or rotate it down to reduce the nostril flare. These are done in the clinic after numbing cream application and in most cases are associated with very little swelling or bruising. In majority of patients, the results can last from 8 to 18 months before a top up is needed. After seeing the results possible from non-surgical rhinoplasty, you could also consider a formal rhinoplasty procedure after the effects wear off.

Is dermal filler non-surgical nose job painful?
The filler molecule is hyaluronic acid that is pre mixed with numbing solution (lignocaine), so the filler injection will numb the area it is injected into. We will also apply strong numbing cream 1 hour before the procedure, and in most instances use a cannula technique, all of these steps will make the procedure relatively painless.
Is there swelling after non-surgical nose job?
Most patients don’t swell after the injection. Similarly, most patients will not have much bruising after the procedure.
What are the risks involved?
While the procedure is quite safe, an occasional patient might get a bit of swelling or bruising, that generally fades over a few days. We do encourage our filler patients to take Arnica pills and cream to reduce swelling and bruising. In the rarest of rare cases the filler injection can inadvertently enter a small blood vessel under the skin, while it is a extremely rare side effect, experienced injectors will know how to avoid it and also will use an Hyalase enzyme injection to dissolve the filler molecule, thus reversing the side-effects in most cases. This makes hyaluronic acid dermal fillers one of the safest volumizing injections available.
Which dermal filler will be used for the nose job?
The dermal fillers we prefer in non-surgical nose jobs are Restylane Lyft, Juvéderm Voluma, Juvéderm Volift.
When will I notice the results?
Unlike the need for downtime after a surgical rhinoplasty, the results of the non-surgical nose job are instantaneous, which makes the whole procedure very gratifying.
How long does non-surgical nose job last?
There are several variables that determine the longevity of this procedure. These are : volume used, filler used, nature of the skin envelope. In general, our advice is that the result will stay stable from 8 months to 18 months, however we tell our patients not to wait for the results to go before considering a top-up, as the longevity increases after each top-up.
How does a non-surgical nose job work?
The dermal filler molecule we use is cross linked hyaluronic acid, this is the synthetic type of sugar that occurs naturally in our skin. The molecule is supplied in syringes in the form of a particulate or smooth gel. In the nose this gel is injected to volumise areas that are deficient, thus correcting nose shape.
Are non-surgical nose jobs permanent?
No, these procedures are not permanent, the results will gradually fade out over months to years.
