Non Surgical Nose Job Dermal Filler Used?

I have a schnoz issue that I want fixed...but I don't want surgery because I hate being put under. It really freaks me out. I am thinking about having a non surgical nose job, but I am wondering what type of dermal filler is normally used for this. Do most doctors use the same fillers or does it vary? What are the options?

Thanks much!

Non-surgical rhinoplasty via injectable filler

Kirsten, First, be very careful with any injections into the nose. The nose is very susceptible to color changes, discoloration, swelling, blood flow, pain, numbness, and other potential complications with inappropriate injections into the nose. There isn't a filler on the market currently that is FDA approved for injection into the nose. Everything is being used off-label. Fillers should never be placed into the tip of the nose. Complications usually occur at the nasal tip. Fillers should... more

Restylane, Juvederm, and Artefill are very effective for Non-surgical Rhinoplasty

I use Restylane or Juvederm for most initial Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty treatments.  They may be placed in the dorsum to augment the bridge or camouflage a bump,  They may also help lift a droopy tip.  I find that they actually last longer in the nose than Radiesse, although Radiesse lasts longer in other places in the face. I am also using Artefill, a permanent filler for some Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty treatments.  It gives a very natural and pleasant result and is very... more

Fillers used for non-surgical rhinoplasty

The two main fillers that I use are Juvederm Ultra Plus and Radiesse.  The advantage of Juvederm is that if you do not like the results, it is possible to give another injection to melt it away.  However, the vast majority of people love the results.  Radiesse is great because it lasts longer and has a bit more structure to it which gives more support.  So, if it is your first time, I would suggest Juvederm and then if you like the results, switch to Radiesse.  I... more

Tissue fillers vary in the nose.

And the decision is based on the length of time needed. Most surgeons start with either Restylane or Juvederm. They last about 6 months. If the result is good and the patient wants to continue, then Radiesse can be selected as it lasts longer, a year or two.

Non Surgical Rhinoplasty

Radiesse, Juvederm, and Restylane are the three most widely used products for non surgical rhinoplasty.  Juvederm is the easiest to remove if there is any uncertainty. In experienced hands, the non surgical rhinoplasty procedure can help change the shape of the bridge of the nose, alter the tip projection, or improve a small or indentation of the nose.

Fillers for Rhinoplasty

I strongly advise against the use of fillers rather than surgery. The results will be temporary, and at best compromised. You say you hate "being put under". Before you do fillers, please have consultations where you can discuss the many different anesthetic techniques which are available.

Dermal Fillers for non-surgical rhinoplasty

There are no standard fillers that are routinely used exclusively for the non-surgical rhinoplasty. Ever since fillers have been available, people have used these products for accomplishing correction of the nasal appearance and include: Zyplast Zyderm Silicone Radiesse Restylane Juvederm Prevelle silk Perlane Captique Hylaform Autogenous fat Fascian Isolagen Etc. It's important to understand that the vast majority of these are being used in an off-label fashion.

Non Surgical nose - Filler

Dermal fillers can not replace a Rhinoplasty operation. They are designed to simply fill in dents in the bridge and profile of the nose. Most doctors use: Hyaluronic based fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm. Calcium based fillers, such as Radiesse are designed for deep tissue injections and are not appropriate for nose injections. Permanent fillers are just too risky and are irreversible.

Non-Surgical Nose Jobs Works for Bumps, Bends, and Hooks

Non-surgical nose jobs can be effective for raising up a droopy nasal tip, straightening out a bump on the bridge of the nose, and smoothing out irregularities along the length of the top of the nose that may have naturally developed or resulted from a previous surgical rhinoplasty. The procedure takes only minutes to perform, is relatively inexpensive, and the results are immediate and typically quite impressive. I've had the privilege of sharing the euphoria of some patients who... more

There are numerous filler options for a non surgical rhinoplasty

There are numerous fillers available for non surgical rhinoplasty and they are constantly changing as new fillers come on the market.  The options are permanent and non-permanent.  Juvederm provides a good solution for a non permanent rhinoplasty.  Permanent fillers may be used but do have a risk of infection and extrusion.

Any filler can be used for a non-surgical nose job

I use Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse and Artefill for non-surgical nose jobs.  Juvederm is best if a patient is nervous and would like something that can be easily removed, in case they don't like it (although I have never had to remove my own work!)  Radiesse lasts longer and Artefill is considered permanent.

Non surgical rhinoplasty not long-term solution

You don't have to be "put under" to have a rhinoplasty. It can be done with conscious sedation and local anesthesia or with just local anesthesia. No fillers are permanent, so you will find it less expensive inthje lonf rumn to have the surgery. Also, fillers only make the nose bigger.

Fillers for non-surgical nose job

My current favorite for the non-surgical nose job is Juvederm Ultra Plus, most commonly utilized to minimalize depressions in the nose by elevating the depression or by filling in minor defects that might have appeared as a result of previous rhinoplasties. I have used this filler in a number of cases with good results. As you might guess, a procedure like this requires very direct communication between physician and patient in order to satisfactorily mesh the a patient's hopes with... more

Dermal Fillers Great Options for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

I would start out with hyaluronic acid fillers (which are reversible with hyaluronidase) such as Restylane, Perlane, or Juvederm, making sure that you like the cosmetic outcome, prior to going for a longer-lasting dermal filler such as Radiesse. Most importantly, go with the filler that your board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon is most comfortable with.

Liquid Injectable Silicone for the Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

Many nasal defects and imperfections can be corrected without having to do surgery. We call this the Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty. In my experience, liquid injectable silicone (Silikon 1000) is ideal for correcting different types of minor nasal deformities as it is very precise and permanent. Additionally, silicone does not shift or drift as many other fillers do. This treatment is very effective in the hands of an experienced user of liquid injectable silicone.

The Injectable Filler used in Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty, depends on your doctor's experience.

If your nose isn't too large, you would be surprised how much improvement you could see with an Injectable Filler treatment. Feel free to email a frontal and profile photo, and I'll be happy to share my thoughts with you. I've been using Silikon-1000 for over 10 years which may provide permanent results. I hope this is helpful for you.

Filler CAN be used for non-surgical nose job

Interesting enough what plastic surgeons would say about putting in fillers in the nose. Be wary of those who say you can't do this or you can't do that. If a person has a hammer as his tool, he'll probably be telling you that he can fix your tires using just that. Fillers have been reported and have been used for many years for the temporary fix known as the non-surgical nose job. As a matter of fact, it was first used to fix a depression caused by a bad nose job. Many fillers have been... more
