Non Surgical Nose Job for a "Hook Nose"  

Manhattan NY

I have a "wicked witch" nose with a pretty pronounced hook at the end of it and I'm curious if a non surgical nose job would fix this...or at least make it look a bit better.  Is there anything that can be done without having surgery?

Non Surgical Nose Job Can Work for Hooks
A non-surgical nose job can be used to correct bumps on the bridge of the nose, surface irregularities along the top of the nose, and down-turned noses.

Some defects may be so severe that aggressive, invasive surgery is the only answer, particularly when dealing with a prominently hooked nose.

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Without addressing your specific problem, most times I feel the non-surgical approach is temporary and usually a compromise.

This way you will hear about the pros and cons of each approach, not a biased opinion based on the scope of a physician's practice.

Non Surgical Nose Job
It's hard to say for certain what would work for you without seeing a picture.

Non Surgical Nose Job (Rhinoplasty) can treat a hooked nose
Each case must be treated individually, however, severe cases can be treated with fillers.  If there are asymmetric concavities on one side of a nose or if there are any areas of indentation fillers can help with this.  Fillers can not make a nose smaller but they can make a large or irregularly shaped nose appear better. For an example of filler placed in the nose, please click the link below. see video

With a non-surgical nose job using fillers, it is sometimes possible to camouflage an undersireable characteristic by building up adjacent areas of the nose. The deformity of nose will dictate if and how much of the injectable substance is required to achieve the desired result. While injectable fillers may be appropriate for treating localized deformities such... more
 

Non surgical rhinoplasty for hooked nose
Non-surgical techniques may achieve minor corrections in the hooked nose. 1) In particular, use of Botox to the muscle that pulls down the tip of the nose, especially when smiling, may ease the downturning of the nose 2) Injection of fillers at the base of the nose and columella may lift the nose away from the face, helping to give it the appearance of being rotated in space.
