We all know about surgical nose jobs (Rhinoplasty), what is the "non-Surgical Nose Job"?
The "non-surgical nose job" (or non-surgical rhinoplasty as it is known) replaces the scalpel with a needle, using a dermal filler injected in such a way as to soften, shape and straighten an individual's nose without resorting to invasive surgery.

Not many people are aware that the majority of bumps on the nose are easily treatable by simply adding dermal filler to the nose, slightly filling indentations and smoothing out any bumps and irregularities.


Why does the nose have such an impact on our facial attractiveness?
The nose is a central focal point of the face to which our eyes are naturally drawn, and has an impact on facial harmony and attractiveness. An outstanding feature for all to see, if the shape and size of our nose is disproportionate to the rest of our face then the relative attractiveness of our face is affected and this will impact upon our self image and self-consciousness.

Which noses can benefit from a non-surgical nose job?
The vast majority of nose irregularities are treatable by using a dermal filler, including flat, bent and irregular noses as well as many bumps, humps and dips. Asian noses in particular and noses that have a deficient bridge that requires building up can easily be improved with fillers, reducing the flat appearance of the nose and providing more shape-without resorting to surgery or nasal implants.


What effects can be achieved?
Bumps and irregularities of shape occur not only up and down the length of the nose, but also from side to side, impacting on the symmetry of the nose and making the nose appear crooked or bent to one side, or even accentuating the tip of the nose making it look more rounded or bulbous. Sometimes the nostrils may be too 'open' or high, displaying too much of the nasal cavity.

When you level these bumps, indentations and irregularities by filling them with a dermal filler you can even out the contours and symmetry of the nose and this will make the nose look straighter from both the front and the side as well as take the emphasis off the tip of the nose or the nostrils.

You can also reduced the appearance of a nose that appears to jut out strongly. Usually when this happens the junction at the top of the nose, where it meets the forehead, is too concave, creating a steeper angle here and making the nose look more prominent . By adding a small amount of dermal filler to this concavity to reduce it you reduce the angle of the nose and its prominence.

So, in fact by adding to the nose you are able to make it appear to be smaller. It's amazing to see the immediate effect and patients themselves are amazed at the difference it makes.


How would you describe the ideal nose?
There's no such thing. An ideal nose is dependent on the shape and size and the vertical dimensions of the individual face, and it has to be in harmony with the forehead, eyes and cheeks.

What might look good on one person might look unattractive on someone else. Therefore each nose must be assessed on a face-by-face basis

What down time is involved?
Usually there is no down-time at all. This a true lunch-time procedure which takes approximately 5 - 10 minutes to perform, results will be seen immediately, and what's more you can go straight back to work!


How long does it last and how much does it cost?
For the first treatment I like to use a reversible product so that patients can see the end result and be certain that they are happy with it. They can then continue to put in the same product once a year or opt for a longer-lasting product.

Prices range from $440, making it a very cost effective procedure which is simple and very safe.


Are there any side effects?
There will be minimal swelling and in very few cases a slight bruising.
Reactions to these natural products are exceedingly uncommon.


Is there a time when surgery is a preferred option?
In cases where the nose is in fact quite large or if the tip of the nose is quite bulbous and these need to be reduced then surgery will produce better results. If there has been a history of a broken nose and the bones need to be straightened, particularly if there is an impediment to the breathing then this would need to corrected surgically.

However, for the majority of noses the "non-surgical rhinoplasty" will work very well.
