Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty FAQs

What is a non-surgical rhinoplasty?

The results of non-surgical rhinoplasty typically last between 12 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors like metabolism. Some people may need a touch-up within a year to maintain the desired look.

Is non-surgical rhinoplasty safe?

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is generally safe when performed by experienced, qualified professionals. However, as with surgical rhinoplasty, there are risks involved, including infection, scarring, or complications from anaesthesia. Non-surgical rhinoplasty has fewer risks but may include bruising and swelling.

Will non-surgical rhinoplasty affect my breathing ?

Non-surgical rhinoplasty, particularly when performed for cosmetic purposes, should not negatively impact breathing if done by an experienced surgeon. Sometimes, non-surgical rhinoplasty can improve breathing by correcting structural issues such as a deviated septum.

How is non-surgical rhinoplasty done?

Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves injecting dermal fillers, usually hyaluronic acid, into specific nose areas to reshape and enhance its appearance. The procedure usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, with minimal discomfort due to numbing cream applied before the injections. The filler can smooth out bumps, raise a flat bridge, or lift the nasal tip, providing an alternative to traditional surgical rhinoplasty.

Is non-surgical rhinoplasty painful?

The procedure is generally not painful, as a topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimize discomfort. Most patients experience only mild pressure during the injections.

What can I expect after the procedure?

There is little to no downtime after non-surgical rhinoplasty. You may experience mild swelling or bruising, but these typically subside within a few days. You can return to your regular activities almost immediately.

What should I avoid after non-surgical rhinoplasty ?

After the procedure, you should avoid wearing glasses, facials, intense heat, and strenuous exercise for a few days to ensure optimal healing and results.
