What is Liquid Rhinoplasty?
Liquid rhinoplasty, often termed non-surgical rhinoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that essentially involves nose reshaping, without surgery.
This non-surgical treatment is conducted by cosmetic doctors and is suited for individuals seeking an alternative to surgical nose jobs.
It offers a way to potentially enhance nasal contours, aiming for an aesthetic improvement with minimal downtime.
What are the Benefits of Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves methods that are less invasive than traditional surgical procedures. This treatment may provide advantages such as:
- Minimal Downtime: Patients generally may resume their daily routines shortly after the procedure although individual experiences can vary.
- Observable Enhancements: Results can be observed immediately after treatment with the final appearance typically settling over the subsequent days.
- Nasal Structure Enhancement: Aimed at refining the nose to better complement other facial features, this non-surgical treatment can improve symmetry, reduce dips and humps, and improve overall facial aesthetic.
With regards to the benefits, however, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional to discuss what you can realistically expect from this procedure.
The non-surgical rhinoplasty is an effective treatment to help correct small irregularities of the nose.
Capabilities of Non Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical nose jobs are designed to adjust and enhance the aesthetics of the nose without the need for invasive surgery. This type of nose reshaping procedure can be used to address various aspects of nasal appearance.
What Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty May Correct:
Broad Nasal Tips: May assist in refining the appearance of the nasal tip to be more proportionate with other facial features.
Uneven Noses and Nasal Asymmetry: Can be effective in balancing asymmetrical nasal features or a crooked nose.
Flat or Wide Nasal Bridges: Fillers can add definition, creating a more defined nasal bridge
Understanding the limitations of non-surgical treatments compared to a surgical nose job is vital.
Limitations of Non Surgical Rhinoplasty:
Temporary Results: Unlike surgical nose jobs, the effects of non surgical rhinoplasty are not permanent.
Breathing Issues: These fillers are cosmetic and do not address internal nasal function or breathing problems.
Prominent Nasal Hump and Size Reduction: Non-surgical methods are limited in their ability to significantly reduce a prominent nasal hump and will not decrease overall nose size.
Consultation with a healthcare professional is essential to discuss the suitability of this for your specific needs and to ensure realistic expectations of the outcomes.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Non-Surgical Nose Job?
Ideal candidates for non-surgical rhinoplasty are those looking to correct minor deformities or imperfections without undergoing surgery.
Common corrections include to smooth fine lines, adjust a broad nasal tip, improve the nose structure, define the nose bridge and refine the nose shape.
A consultation with a qualified cosmetic doctor in Sydney is essential to determine if this procedure is suitable for your specific needs.
Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
When considering the differences between surgical and non-surgical rhinoplasty procedures, it is important to evaluate several key aspects:
Downtime: The non surgical rhinoplasty procedure typically involves less recovery time, allowing most patients to return to their daily activities more quickly.
Permanence: Surgical rhinoplasty offers permanent modifications to the nasal structure while non-surgical rhinoplasty only provides temporary results that can be adjusted or reversed.
Scope of Correction: Surgical rhinoplasty can address more comprehensive structural issues within the nose such as nasal deformities while non-surgical rhinoplasty is best suited for making smaller adjustments.

How Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Works
Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves the precise administration of a semi-permanent filler. This filler, potentially effective for up to 18 months, offers the flexibility of being reversible if required.
During the procedure, a local anaesthetic or topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort and minimise discomfort.
This approach allows for targeted improvements such as refining the nasal tip or addressing minor nasal deformities without the need for invasive surgery.

While generally considered safe, they do carry some risks. Common side effects of this treatment include minor bruising, minor swelling and less commonly, allergic reactions. You should discuss your medical history with your practitioner beforehand to mitigate potential risks.
Yes, non surgical rhinoplasty is safe when administered by a certified professional using high-quality products. Practitioners ensure that treatments adhere to strict safety standards and use products that are approved for cosmetic use, minimising risks and ensuring patient safety.
Yes, most hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which are commonly used in a non surgical nose job in Sydney can be dissolved if necessary. This is done using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which safely breaks down the filler, allowing it to be absorbed and expelled by the body.
No, non-surgical rhinoplasty is not a permanent procedure. The results typically last between 12 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as the body’s rate of metabolism. Patients may choose to have follow-up treatments to maintain their desired appearance as the effects gradually diminish.
Risks and complications of cosmetic surgery
These risks, while concerning, are generally rare and can be mitigated through careful planning, following pre- and post-operative care instructions, and working with qualified and experienced medical practitioners, like those at ICCM. But it can still be beneficial to understand potential risks that can occur, so you can discuss these risks before proceeding with any treatment.
Bruising and Swelling
Bruising and swelling are common side effects of surgery as the body responds to tissue trauma. While these symptoms typically subside within a few weeks, severe bruising can cause discomfort and prolong recovery. In some cases, significant swelling might indicate underlying issues such as fluid accumulation or infection, requiring further medical attention.
Pain
Pain is an expected part of recovery from any surgery, but its intensity and duration can vary. While most pain can be managed with prescribed medications, some patients may experience prolonged or severe pain, which could indicate complications such as nerve damage or infection. Chronic pain is a less common, but more serious, concern that might persist long after the typical recovery period.
Undesirable Cosmetic Outcome
An undesirable cosmetic outcome occurs when the results of the surgery do not meet the patient’s expectations, or the aesthetic goals outlined before the procedure. This could be due to asymmetry, unnatural appearance, or a failure to achieve the desired contour or shape. In some cases, additional procedures, known as revision surgeries, may be needed to correct these issues.
Nerve Damage
Nerve damage is a risk in many cosmetic procedures, especially those that involve cutting near nerves. This can lead to numbness, tingling, or even loss of sensation in the affected area. While some nerve damage may be temporary and improve over time, permanent nerve injury can result in lasting changes in sensation or function.
