Non Surgical Rhinoplasty (Non Surgical Nose Job) in Melbourne

Non surgical rhinoplasty (also known as a non surgical nose job and liquid rhinoplasty) can improve your nose's profile and look without invasive surgery. 

It is a highly sought-after procedure at Chelseas Cosmetics that is used to correct asymmetry, rejuvenate an aging nose, or enhance its appearance. 

The procedure involves strategically injecting a special dermal filler just below the skin of the nose into areas that will provide the nose characteristics a patient desires without making extensive changes to its dimensions.

Having a nose job without surgery means you can resume your regular activities the same day, as it is an outpatient procedure that is usually completed in under 60 minutes.

1. The injector nurse examines the patient's face to determine which areas to inject the dermal filler.
2. For comparison purposes, photos are taken of the treatment area.
3. Using a medical marker, the injector creates marks on the patient's face to indicate the precise injection points.
4. An antibacterial agent is used to clean the treatment area.
5. A local anaesthetic is used to numb the internal treatment area. Patients may also receive topical numbing cream or cryotherapy to numb the injection sites.
6. With precision, small amounts of the dermal filler are injected into the nose at marked locations.
7. Once the filler injections are complete, the treatment areas are gently smoothed.

Although a non-surgical rhinoplasty is a quick procedure for beautiful aesthetic results, it does require skill, knowledge of facial anatomy and experience. Adding too much filler in one area and insufficient in another will leave the patient with uneven results. Furthermore, if the injector is unfamiliar with facial anatomy, they may inject the dermal filler incorrectly, negatively affecting the blood flow in the patient's nose.

Surgical rhinoplasty patients receive general anaesthesia and are, therefore, asleep during the procedure, whereas a patient receiving a nose filler treatment remains awake throughout the treatment. Patients must take a substantial amount of time off work or school after surgery. After having a non-surgical nose reshaping procedure, there is very little recovery time required, if any. The benefits include:

• It is more economical.
• There is little to no downtime.
• The procedure is quick, usually taking less than an hour to complete.
• Creates an aesthetically pleasing nose in just minutes
• There is minimal aftercare.
• Patients see their results directly after their procedure.
• The results are reversible. Therefore, if a patient is unhappy with the results of their non-surgical rhinoplasty, the nurse injector can use the enzyme hyaluronidase to break down the hyaluronic acid.

The nose is the most prominent feature of the face. For this reason, an individual must be pleased with the resulting characteristics of their nose, so it is important to choose an expert in nose lift surgery who understands the anatomy of the nose and surrounding structures.
