Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty, also referred to as Liquid Nose Job, offers a minimally invasive alternative for individuals looking to enhance the shape and appearance of their nose without undergoing traditional surgical procedures. Utilising hyaluronic acid fillers, this technique allows for immediate results with minimal discomfort and downtime. In this blog, we will explore the benefits, potential risks, and important considerations when opting for a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty, ensuring you are well-informed before making a decision.
What is a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
A Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty, often referred to as a Liquid Nose Job, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that employs hyaluronic acid as a temporary soft tissue filler to alter the appearance of the nose. This procedure can address various aesthetic concerns, including smoothing out bumps, lifting a downward-pointing tip, and enhancing the shape of a flat nose.
Considerations for a Liquid Rhinoplasty
- It is a minimally invasive procedure with minimal discomfort after a local anaesthetic is injected. Numbing cream and gas are also available at Absolute Cosmetic.
- There are no bandages, large incisions, or long recovery. Appointments will generally last for 30-45 minutes and will provide immediate results, which improve over time as swelling subsides.
- Results are temporary, making this option suitable for individuals who prefer not to undergo surgery or those exploring rhinoplasty who wish to experience a different aesthetic before committing to a permanent change.
- More cost-effective compared to traditional rhinoplasty procedures.
What are some of the potential complications associated with a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
While swelling, bruising, and bleeding are common outcomes following the procedure, these effects are typically temporary and improve over time. Individual factors such as age, genetics, and lifestyle can influence the final results. It’s important to note that a serious complication can arise from nonpermanent soft tissue injections if the filler is injected incorrectly, potentially leading to tissue necrosis.
Injections into a vein or artery may result in severe consequences, including blindness or necrosis of the skin. The nose is particularly sensitive due to its limited blood supply, especially in individuals who have previously undergone nasal surgery. Therefore, conducting thorough research when selecting an injector is crucial to ensure you choose a qualified professional with experience in this delicate area.
