"Nonsurgical Nosejob" has limitations

The placement of filler in the nose (e.g. Restylane, Juvederm, and Radiesse), what some people call the Nonsurgical "Nosejob" or Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty, can be appropriate for certain patients. I perform both nonsurgical and surgical rhinoplasty in my San Francisco Bay Area practice. I have found that in patients with a slight curve to the nose, placement of filler along the concave side can make the nose appear straighter. Also, in patients with a small hump and no other... more
