Non-surgical rhinoplasty
Advances in filler technique over the last decade mean that the majority of noses can be treated by a simple procedure lasting just 15-20 mins. Gone are the days of needing to resort to surgery and the associated months of downtime and risk of complications.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty FAQs
-
A non-surgical rhinoplasty can help with noses that have a bump in the bridge, are deviated to one side, have a dip in the middle, have a droopy tip. You can also request your nose to be more defined or just slope upwards a little. The treatment is very versatile. For a bespoke treatment plan please book a free consultation.
-
The procedure itself takes approximately 15 minutes but we will spend much longer than this assessing your nose and ensuring the optimum technique is used as well as assessing the results along the way.
-
Depending on what you would like correcting you will need injections either beneath the nose, into the tip, into the body of the nose or at the nasal bridge. Very small needles are used and it usually takes 6-10 injections.
-
Local anaesthetic cream is applied to the skin before your treatment, but due to the very fine needle used and the fact that each injection lasts only a few seconds, the pain is very minimal.
-
Results tend to last for around 12 months although this can be longer or shorter depending on how much change needs to be made to your nose shape. After this, a top-up rather than a full re-treatment is usually required.
-
There is a small risk of bruising with the non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure but the vast majority of patients can immediately return to work/other activities. You may feel a tight feeling in the nose for a day or two after. Glasses should be avoided for 1 -2 weeks if filler has been placed on the nasal bridge.
