Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty: The Procedure

Nonsurgical rhinoplasty is performed using hyaluronic acid fillers and can be an effective form of treatment for some cases; however, it is important to note that injections cannot replace surgical results. Nonsurgical nose jobs are mainly performed to correct minor cosmetic concerns and cannot fix functional nasal issues. Further, filler injections in the nose must be done cautiously and only by a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist skilled in managing potential complications. As a nonsurgical option, this type of rhinoplasty can provide a convenient solution for those with busy lifestyles or those hesitant to undergo full surgery. Dr. Klausner's expertise ensures that each treatment is tailored to the individual's unique facial anatomy, allowing for a personalized approach that enhances the nose's appearance while preserving the patient's natural features.

Who is a Good Candidate for Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty?

Anyone who is dissatisfied with the appearance of their nose but isn't ready for invasive surgery may be a great candidate for nonsurgical rhinoplasty. Prospects for this simple yet effective procedure typically have issues such as bumps, a crooked nose, a drooping tip, depressions, an irregular bridge, or a flat or short nasal bridge. Because nonsurgical rhinoplasty uses dermal fillers, patients can achieve temporary but long-lasting results—up to a year or longer. This can help patients decide if a surgical rhinoplasty procedure may be suitable for their long-term aesthetic goals. During your consultation, Dr. Klausner will examine your features and listen to your concerns to help you decide if nonsurgical rhinoplasty is right for you.

Recovering From Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty

Recovery from nonsurgical rhinoplasty is typically minimal and straightforward. Patients may experience minor swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically subsides within a few days. Discomfort is generally mild, and any potential discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Most individuals are able to resume their normal daily activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. Dr. Klausner provides specific aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results, advising patients to avoid applying pressure to the treated area and refrain from strenuous activities for a short period after the procedure.

Will a nonsurgical rhinoplasty fix breathing issues?

It's important for patients to understand that dermal fillers cannot actually change the underlying structures of the nose or improve breathing. Ideal candidates for a nonsurgical rhinoplasty are bothered by mild to moderate cosmetic issues, such as a bulbous nose or a narrow-looking nose. Dr. Klausner can nonsurgically correct these issues with a series of quick, easy injections.

When are results visible from a nonsurgical rhinoplasty?

If performed correctly, patients should notice immediate improvements in the appearance of their noses. However, it takes a few days for patients to see the outcomes of dermal filler injections. This allows for mild side effects like swelling and inflammation to subside. Our patients are often excited to enjoy a refreshed look without the long recovery times associated with surgery.

Will my results from nonsurgical rhinoplasty look fake?

Results from a nonsurgical nose job should appear natural, especially when working with trained professionals.
