Nose job without surgery

Do you wish you could change the shape of your nose without surgery? Think that your nose is too big but don’t want the down time associated with surgery or a general anesthetic? Non-surgical alternatives do exist for people wishing to change the shape of the nose. Using temporary fillers such as hyaluronic acid (tradename Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane, and others), rhinoplasty surgeons can alter the shape of the nose without the need for surgery.

How long do I need to be off of work with a non-surgical nose job?

Non-surgical rhinoplasties can be performed in the office with very minimal down time. Though there may be bruising and swelling associated with the procedure, generally patients can return to work the same day and most any activity within 1-2 days.

What type of anesthesia is used?

The procedure utilizes facial fillers to change the contour of the nose. Local numbing medicine, similar to what is used at the dentist office, can be used with or without topical anesthesia. There is no need for general anesthesia or going completely to sleep.

Where is the procedure performed?The procedure can easily be performed in the physician’s office. The procedure can be scheduled at the patient’s discretion and usually takes less than an hour to perform

What are the risks?

While there are risks with any procedure, generally the biggest risks are mild redness at the injection site, bruising, and swelling. Should bruising and swelling occur, it is generally mild and resolves within several days. As always, it is vital to speak with an experienced physician before undergoing any procedure and to disclose your entire medical history to determine if there are certain risks particular to your medical history that you must know before undergoing the procedure.
