Liquid Rhinoplasty

A non-surgical rhinoplasty (nose job) focuses on the small changes that can be achieved with dermal fillers rather than surgery. Dissolvable and reversible, a few tiny injections of a hyaluronic filler in the nose can achieve significant improvements for many individuals. At Beautify at AMS in Chicago, liquid rhinoplasty is performed to achieve small changes in the appearance of the nose, such as hiding a pronounced bump along the bridge.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty (also known as “liquid rhinoplasty”) uses the same injectable dermal fillers that are used for smoothing, filling, and lifting the skin. This treatment is ideal for those who have smaller cosmetic imperfections of the nose and don’t really need a surgical procedure.

How Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Improves the Nose

One of the most common issues treated with liquid rhinoplasty is a pronounced bump along the nasal bridge. Carefully-placed filler injections can plump up the area around the bump to give the illusion of a smoother contour.

Other improvements that a non-surgical rhinoplasty can achieve include correcting small indentations, correcting a pinched or drooping nasal tip, balancing a crooked nose, adjusting asymmetry, adding volume to a low bridge, and improving overall contour and balance.

For the right candidates, the appearance of the nose can truly be improved with slight tweaks with dermal fillers.

Important Information About Liquid Rhinoplasty

Results are Temporary

While a liquid rhinoplasty may be exactly what some patients are looking for, there are some things to understand about the treatment. Because the treatment uses dermal fillers, results are not permanent. During your consultation, we will tell you how long your results will last (it will be based on the exact type of filler that is selected for you).

It Doesn’t Actually Change the Nose

While a liquid rhinoplasty does change the appearance of the nose, it doesn’t actually change the nose itself. Rather, it works by filling in areas to camouflage or hide imperfections. This is why it’s often a great option for adjusting smaller issues.

It Doesn’t Address Functionality

For those who have trouble breathing, deal with severe snoring issues, or experience any other type of nasal functionality problems, a non-surgical rhinoplasty is not an option. To correct these conditions, you will need a surgical procedure.

What Happens During a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?

Because non-surgical rhinoplasty only uses dermal fillers, it’s a fairly quick procedure performed in-office at our medical spa. Only a topical anesthetic is used. While you will feel some pressure during the injections, the level of pain is very minimal.

The area will be cleansed and numbed, and then injections will begin, using the dermal fillers that were chosen for you during your consultation. The injections will be administered to areas on and around your nose.

Administered at our medical spa in Chicago, non surgical rhinoplasties are quick and easy. Your aesthetician will know exactly the right amount of filler to use, and just the right areas to achieve the results you want. The treatment takes approximately 30 minutes.

Downtime and Results

A traditional surgical rhinoplasty typically requires about two weeks of recovery. A non-surgical rhinoplasty requires no recovery time at all, with patients even able to go back to their regular day if they prefer. Some patients do experience swelling and/or bruising for 1-3 days, but these are usually mild.

Most dermal fillers deliver immediate results, so you should see a very fast onset. The longevity of your results will be determined by the specific filler that was chosen for you, and during your consultation, we will let you know how long you can expect them to last. The average amount of time is 6-8 months.
