Liquid Rhinoplasty

Liquid rhinoplasty, also known as non-surgical rhinoplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses injectable dermal fillers to reshape and contour the nose without surgery. During the procedure, a skilled practitioner injects fillers, typically hyaluronic acid-based such as Juvederm or Restylane, into specific areas of the nose to smooth out bumps, add volume, and improve symmetry. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, with immediate results and minimal downtime.

Liquid rhinoplasty is ideal for individuals looking to make minor adjustments to the shape of their nose without surgery. Good candidates are those wanting to smooth out bumps, enhance the nose bridge, or correct asymmetry. Benefits include:

• Non-invasive: No incisions or stitches required.
• Minimal downtime: Most patients can resume normal activities immediately.
• Immediate results: Changes are visible right after the procedure.
• Reversible: Effects of the fillers can often be reversed if needed.

Results from liquid rhinoplasty can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Recovery is minimal, with possible slight swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few days. There are potential risks such as infection, bruising, swelling, or asymmetry, though these are generally rare.

Liquid rhinoplasty is purely cosmetic and cannot correct functional issues like a deviated septum or breathing difficulties; surgical rhinoplasty would be required for these conditions.
