What Is A Non-Surgical Nose Job?

I am unhappy with my nose, but I can't afford rhinoplasty surgery. I am considering a non-surgical option but don't know much about it other than that it is supposed to be less expensive than plastic surgery. What exactly is a non-surgical nose job? Do the results last?

Expert Answer

A non-surgical nose job uses dermal fillers to even out the shape of the nose. Sometimes you may be unhappy with a very small area of the nose, and all that is required is some filler under the skin to plump it out. This is the most non-invasive method of rhinoplasty. Generally, Restylane or Radiesse are injected to fill depressions, smooth out sharp angles, or change the angle of the tip of the nose, restoring symmetry and making your nose appear more attractive and in better harmony with your face. However, a non-surgical nose job does not provide permanent results, and will not work for every patient. In order to determine if you are a candidate for a non-surgical nose job, you will need to have a consultation with a Cosmetic Dermatologist
