Is There a Permanent Non-surgical Rhinoplasty?

I agree that most permanent fillers are not recommended procedures for the nose. The main issue with a permanent filler is that a permanent filler is a permanent problem. It is very difficult if not impossible to remove a permanent filler once it is in the soft tissues of the nose. If your nose would develop granuloma, infection, asymmetry, etc, there is not a simple solution.

There are several alternatives for a non-surgical rhinoplasty. Permanent alternatives would include silicone or ArteFill; however, these are generally not recommended due to late inflammatory problems that may arise. Safer non-surgical options for temporary fillers include Juvederm, Restylane, and Radiesse. These fillers can give an instant rhinoplasty and are best suited for those who require a 'larger' nose or who have a bump or hump on the nose or to correct minor irregularities or... more

The only permanent "non-surgical" rhinoplasty would involve using silicone injections or Artecoll/Artefill.

In fact, most respected rhinoplasty surgeons would not recommend using any type of filler in the nose other than to correct minor contour irregularities that may result from a... more

You should consult a board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon experienced in the micro-droplet technique. You should see many photos before proceeding. In my hands, Silikon-1000 works... more

There is no such thing as a permanent nonsurgical rhinoplasty since all the injectables we currently have on the market are temporary. Only surgical rhinoplasty is permanent.

I would not recommend Permanent Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty. The main reason is many of these fillers can damage the nose soft tissue. This makes subsequent treatments difficult if not impossible. If you are interested in this procedure, I would recommend the semi-permanent hyaluronic acid fillers which can be reversed. I understand the feeling that you don't want to keep coming back for filler "adjustments" to your nose, but this is much better than having a problem that is not... more
