Everything You Need to Know About Non Surgical Nose Rhinoplasty Filler
The nose is quite literally the central point of our face. It can be the first thing people notice when they look at us and while everyones’ is unique and beautiful in its own way — alot of us still feel insecure and not like our best selves.
For many, the mind immediately goes to a rhinoplasty as the solution to this problem. However, what many don’t know is even just a slight tweak to your nose can make the biggest difference — and this can be achieved with a non-surgical rhinoplasty!
If the idea of surgery (or the idea of how much it costs) terrifies you, it’s a huge relief to know there’s another option available. While a 15-minute nonsurgical nose job can’t address all concerns, it can significantly improve the contours and shape of your nose. Below, we’re spilling all the secrets of the non-surgical nose job, including how it works, risks of treatment, and how much it costs.
What it CAN’T Fix
A non-surgical rhinoplasty CANNOT…
- Shrink the nose
- Make the bridge thinner
- Remove a large bump
- Narrow the nostrils
- Improve breathing problems
- Correct a deviated septum
What it CAN Fix
A non-surgical rhinoplasty CAN…
- Improve the overall symmetry of your nose
- Alter a ski slope nose
- Lift or change the nose tip
- Improve the appearance of bumps in the nose
- Add dimension to a flat nose
- Create more balance between the bridge and tip of the nose
Men and women who just want a subtle change will likely leave their non-surgical rhinoplasty saying: “I should have done this sooner!”
How does non-surgical rhinoplasty work?
The key to a nonsurgical nose job? Dermal filler.
Our experts at The G Spa use hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to correct bumps, curves, and lumps, making your nose appear smaller and more symmetrical. A great provider knows how to contour the nasal profile for a beautiful result.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary, but they also prevent lumps from forming within the tissue, and they are easily reversible. Results usually last at least 6 months, and up to 2 full years!
Here’s how a non-surgical rhinoplasty in Santa Barbara typically works…
- Your medical provider will apply a numbing cream and let it sit for a while.
- In the meantime, they will carefully assess the face, nose, and anatomy, and mark the proportions to define the nasal angles.
- The injection process itself is very precise. Your provider will inject microdroplets of filler with a blunt-tip cannula or needle. They may also inject Botox to help lift the tip of the nose.
- One of the best features of the non-surgical nose job is that it’s over and done within 15 minutes. Surprisingly, many people rank the pain of the procedure at just a 1 or 2 out of 10. Keep in mind that some providers recommend one or two follow-up appointments.
Are there any risks?
After your liquid rhinoplasty, you’ll probably be a little sore. You might experience some swelling and redness at the injection site. For most people, that’s the extent of their side effects.
It’s extremely rare, but some can experience some complications after a nonsurgical nose job, like infection, “lumpy” results, or nasal skin damage.
This is why it’s important to choose an experienced Doctor or medical provider — like the ones here at The G Spa — if you’re going to make any kind of change to your face. Someone with a lot of experience is going to minimize any risks and get you the best outcome possible.
Why get a non-surgical rhinoplasty in Santa Barbara?
If you’re unhappy with the way your nose looks, the better question is – why wouldn’t you get a non-surgical nose job?
- It’s lower-risk and lower-cost than surgery
- You won’t need general or IV anesthesia
- There’s little to no downtime afterward
- There’s less pain (no breaking bones or cutting cartilage)
- It’s a non-permanent solution, so there’s no commitment
- You’ll get instantaneous, delightful results
How much does it cost?
So you’re probably thinking, “Okay, where’s the catch? How much is this 15-minute miracle going to cost me?”
You probably already guessed, but every client is different. Your cost will vary the number of injections needed, and the kind of filler chosen. You also may pay more based on the provider you choose, but this is not the type of treatment you want to save money on — experience is going to have a significant impact on the quality of your results.
When it’s all said and done, you’ll likely only spend a fraction of what it costs to have a permanent surgical rhinoplasty — which, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons suggests you’ll pay nearly $5,500 for.
