How can I get a non-surgical nose job?
Can you even change the shape of your nose without surgery? Actually, yes. People willing to reshape their nose without going under the knife can opt for a procedure known as rhinofillers, which is a non-surgical type of nose job. Rhinofillers is the esthetic correction of nasal deformities with the injection of hyaluronic acid.
The procedure is often undergone by patients worried about how their nose may look after surgery. This fear makes them opt for a non-invasive procedure instead. Rhinofillers present the advantage of having entirely reversible results and no recovery time.
What is Hyaluronic Acid and How Does it Change Your Appearance?
Hyaluronic acid is a trustworthy substance, in as much as it is naturally found in your body. In technical terms, it is called an endogenous substance. The acid is injected inside the patient’s skin in a targeted manner, in order to model and sculpt the figure. Through this procedure, the nose can adopt a smaller shape with regards to the rest of the face, if the procedure is carried out by an experienced surgeon.
Some of the greatest advantages of rhinofillers include that patients are able to carry on with their normal lives right after the procedure.
Am I A Good Candidate for Rhinofillers?
Consider that rhinofillers are not adaptable for all patients. For example, a big nose will only become bigger through filler injections. This procedure cannot solve long noses either, bulbous noses or deviated septums. All such cases would need a surgical intervention, at the risk of having undesirable results with hyaluronic acid.
People who enjoy the greatest benefits from a non-surgical nose job include:
- People who want a nostril correction
- People who want to modify their nasal wings
- People searching for a slight nasal tip correction
- People wanting a slight nasal bridge correction
- People wanting to improve former rhinoplasty results
It is always necessary to go through the evaluation of a professional doctor before proceeding and choosing what rhinomodelation procedure is best. Professional clinics will be able to send you a computer simulation to know beforehand how results will look, which can be tremendously helpful to make the right decision.
What Does a Rhinofiller Intervention Look Like?
The standard rhinofiller procedure is articulated in 3 main points:
- The top or “root” of the nose is treated to modify the global appearance of the nose
- The tip of the nose and bridge are treated to hold the bone structure
- The sides of the nose are treated to adapt to the overall facial physiognomy
The procedure is carried out without the use of anesthesia, because rhinofillers already contain a certain amount of anesthetic substance. The complete intervention can last between 15 and 30 minutes. Cold ice is applied right after to smoothen the slight pain that might be felt because of the injection.
It is important to consider that a rhinofiller intervention has purely aesthetic aims and will not alter the patient’s breathing by any means. If you suffer from breath shortages due to a deviated septum or other causes, you should consider a surgical intervention instead.
On the other hand, rhinofillers are ideal to correct slight imperfections or asymmetries on the nose. Hyaluronic acid, the chemical compound responsible for facial restructuring, is absorbable by your body, which means that its effects are temporary and reversible.
How Long Do Results Last For?
The injectable effects of hyaluronic acid can add volume to your nasal structure for a total of 12 to 18 months after the procedure. After such a time span, the botulinum toxin, responsible for fixing muscles that work against nasal aesthetics, and hyaluronic acid itself, will be fully absorbed and their effects completely lost. Bluntly put, you will look like you looked before the procedure.
After this time, patients will have to undergo the procedure again if they wish to have the same facial expression. No doubt, patients can decide if they want to continue the treatment or not, at any point, even after years, without this representing any risk or problem whatsoever.
What is the Price of Rhinofillers?
The price of the intervention will vary depending on the clinic, the amount of hyaluronic acid employed or if the procedure is with botulinum toxin. On average, you can expect the following price range:
- €350 to €700 with hyaluronic acid.
- An average of €400 with the botulinum toxin.
Should I Undergo a Surgical Rhinoplasty or a Non Surgical Nose Job?
The answer to this question will fully depend on your personal condition. Rhinofillers can oftentimes replace a surgical intervention, with all the benefits the former includes:
- Cheaper price
- Reversible results
- No recovery time
- No risks or anesthesia
But this is not to say that rhinofillers do not have their own negative sides and limitations, too. For example, patients with breathing shortages will not find a solution to their condition with the use of hyaluronic acid injections. The same applies to patients willing to undergo a nose reduction, at least in most cases.
Where Can I Go For a Surgical Rhinoplasty?
Depending on where you are located, you can consult your nearest plastic surgery center and make your own investigations. As this is a medical matter, we suggest you prioritize quality over cheaper prices. When it comes to plastic surgeries, costs are usually quite high, however, which explains why many patients opt for rhinofillers even if these do not address their specific issues as well as a surgical intervention.
You will have to make your own research and choose a clinic according to your budget and personal considerations. At the moment, patients from all over the world travel to undergo a nose job in Turkey. This is to say that affordable prices can meet good quality standards if you are willing to travel overseas. In any case, you should make sure that the clinic in question is reputable, has plenty of experience and will carry out exhaustive aftercare and follow-up, which is absolutely essential.
