Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty
You may have heard of nonsurgical rhinoplasty referred to by its nicknames “liquid nose job” or “15-minute nose job.” A nonsurgical rhinoplasty is actually a dermal filler procedure that changes the shape of your nose for up to 6 months. It can offer a safe and effective way to achieve a more balanced and harmonious appearance.
What is Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty?
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty, also known as liquid rhinoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that uses dermal fillers to reshape and contour the nose without surgery. It is a popular alternative to traditional surgical rhinoplasty, as it is less invasive, has a shorter recovery time, and produces temporary results.
How Does Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty Work?
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty involves injecting dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, into specific areas of the nose to achieve the desired shape and contour. The filler adds volume to the nose, which can smooth out bumps, define the nasal tip, camouflaged asymmetry, and correct minor nostril flaring.

What to Expect During a Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty
After a brief consultation, our experienced professionals will apply a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort. Using a fine needle, they will precisely inject dermal filler into the desired areas of your nose, enhancing its shape and contours.
The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, and most patients can resume their normal activities immediately afterward. Mild side effects, such as bruising, swelling, or redness, may occur but typically resolve within a few days. Enjoy natural-looking results that can last for several months.
