Non-surgical nose procedures, also known as liquid rhinoplasty or non-surgical rhinoplasty, offer a minimally invasive alternative to traditional rhinoplasty by using dermal fillers to reshape and enhance the appearance of the nose. This method can address concerns such as smoothing irregularities, adding volume, and subtly altering the nose’s contours to improve its overall aesthetic appeal. However, it’s important to note that while dermal fillers can provide significant aesthetic improvements, they are not capable of making drastic changes or correcting functional issues, such as a deviated septum.
One of the key benefits of non-surgical nose enhancement is the ability to see results almost immediately, with minimal downtime and discomfort compared to surgical options. However, patients should be prepared for potential swelling and bruising immediately following the procedure. The final, more refined results will become apparent within 2 or more weeks, and the effects can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 or more years, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.
Despite the general safety of non-surgical nose filler procedures, there are potential risks, such as infection, bruising, swelling, or asymmetry, particularly because the nose and surrounding areas are considered high-risk for injectables. Therefore, it’s crucial to consult with experienced professionals who can evaluate your specific needs and ensure the procedure is carried out safely. During your consultation, we will also discuss the nose filler cost, which can vary depending on the amount of filler needed and the complexity of the desired outcome.
Before
BEFORE
Before your non-surgical nose procedure, it’s crucial to prepare adequately to ensure the best possible outcome.
Avoiding alcohol and caffeine the night before and the morning of your appointment can help minimize potential bruising and swelling.
It’s also advisable to refrain from taking blood thinners or Ibuprofen for 24 hours before your non-surgical rhinoplasty to reduce the risk of bleeding.
Consulting with your primary care physician beforehand is recommended to ensure no contraindications.
Please ensure your face is clean and free of makeup when you come in for your appointment, as this will allow for a clearer treatment area and reduce the risk of infection.
During
DURING
During the non-surgical nose enhancement, trust in the expertise of our medical providers as they skillfully apply the dermal fillers to reshape and enhance your nose.
Unlike some other dermal filler procedures, we do not use external numbing agents for non-surgical nose jobs because it can cause the treated area to swell, impacting the accuracy of the treatment.
However, our dermal fillers contain lidocaine, which will help numb the area after the initial injection, making the process more comfortable.
After
AFTER
After your non-surgical nose treatment, it’s important to follow specific care instructions to ensure the best healing and results.
Avoid touching or applying pressure to the treated area for up to 48 hours to avoid altering the shape of the filler.
It’s crucial not to lie on your face while sleeping for the same reason.
Although this guidance primarily applies to non-surgical nose procedures, similar care should be taken for other treatments, such as lip injections, where you should avoid puckering your lips for up to 3 days.
Refrain from consuming alcohol and engaging in exercise for 24 hours post-treatment to minimize swelling and bruising.
Ice packs and Arnica can be used as directed by your provider to further reduce these effects.
Please allow 2 weeks for the final results to manifest, as it takes time for the swelling to subside and the fillers to settle properly.
A follow-up appointment can be scheduled after 2 weeks to assess the outcome and make any necessary adjustments.

Are there any risks or side effects associated with a non-surgical nose job?
Like any cosmetic injection, non-surgical nose jobs come with potential risks and side effects, though they are generally considered to be less significant than those associated with surgical procedures. Possible risks include bruising, swelling, allergic reactions, and, more rarely, vascular complications. To minimize these risks, it’s critical to seek treatment from an experienced injector who is well-versed in the anatomy of the nose and the specifics of non-surgical nose enhancement procedures.
