Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty (Nose Filler)
Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves the precise injection of a dermal filler into the nose using a fine needle. The filler is used to shape and contour the nose, address imperfections, and improve symmetry without the need for invasive surgery. The procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes and may involve minimal discomfort, with most patients finding it tolerable. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites can occur but usually resolves within a few hours to days. The final results can be seen immediately, with any swelling or minor adjustments settling within a week. The effects typically last between 12–18 months, after which touch-up treatments are recommended to maintain the desired appearance.
