Hello, there is an interesting innovation in cartilage shaping technology I have been reading about. It seems Russian scientists are shaping nasal cartilage that is made pliable under a certain heat. The technology is described under the heading "nose jobs-by melting them" using "laser heat." Can anyone give more detailed information on this subject and its possible use in cosmetics?

Non-surgical rhinoplasty adds volume to the nasal dorsum (nose bridge). When well performed these can look amazing. In our clinic we usually use a filler such as hyaluronic acid (ex: juvederm/voluma/restylane/perlane)
Injectable Filler treatments may be very effective in lowering your nostrils without the expense and downtime of a surgical procedure. You should consult several board-certified dermatologists or facial plastic surgeons experienced in the art of injecting fillers in the nose for cosmetic...
The answer is probably yes. It is impossible to say anything without consultation. I advise you to discuss this with your board plastic surgeon, check actual before & after photos ( not the ones made with computer animation programs).
