The non-surgical rhinoplasty or nose reshaping procedure is a new and exciting alternative to a surgical nose job that can improve many nasal defects using dermal fillers.

Using dermal fillers to reshape and redefine the nose as part of a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure means that we can achieve many of the cosmetic results you would expect from a surgical operation, but without the inherent risks associated with a surgical nose job. It also a great way to see if correcting the aspects of your nose which make you unhappy, using a more temporary solution, gives you the look you want. You may then decide to continue with repeated non-surgical rhinoplasty treatments over time, if you do not wish to consider surgery, or decide on a more invasive surgical rhinoplasty for a permanent correction if you are happy with how your nose can be improved upon.

A so called ‘hooked nose’ is one common concern which is easily treated by placing some dermal filler product into the tip of the nose which achieves a lift and corrects the hook.

Similarly lumps and bumps along the bridge of the nose are also commonly disliked. By injecting dermal filler above and below the raised area, we can quickly and effectively smooth out the bump and straighten the profile of the nose. In some people, the results are incredibly dramatic in what is a very quick and simple procedure.

We use a variety of dermal filler product brands at Dr SW Clinics, but all are hyaluronic acid based which means that they are safe and fully metabolised by the body over time. You can expect results from a non-surgical rhinoplasty to last up to 12 months before repeat treatment is required.

Dermal fillers can be used to:

• Improve the profile of the nose
• Optimise symmetry between the projection of the chin and nose, as see from a side or profile view
• Smooth out any bumps along the bridge of the nose
• Correct any uneven contours or lumps which may have been caused by trauma to the nose
• Improve the appearance of a hooked nose
