My nose curls up and drops down when i smile/laugh and my nostrils are uneven, can this be fixed non-surgically?

When people have slight asymmetry of their nostrils sizes, sometimes microdroplet Silikon 1000 injections may be considered for adding very small amounts of volume to create a more symmetrical nasal tip appearance. Please consider asking you questions with photographs for a more concise answer. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Hi and thanks for your question. Its impossible to tell if you are a good candidate for the 5 Minute Nose Job procedure without pictures. A Non Surgical Nose Job procedure will not reduce the size of your nostrils, although a bit of Botox into the area will reduce how much they flare out, making them less prominent. Fillers can only add, they cannot take away tissue. The only exception to this is if you have a very under developed bridge. In these situations, lifting the bridge brings the nose into better proportion, de-emphasizing the tip and nostrils and making them appear smaller. It is an illusion, but it is effective.
For the longest duration in a temporary filler, I usually use Voluma and it gives my patients 1.5 to 2 years. Voluma is also reversible at any time with a simple enzyme injection. Once the filler wears off and the nose goes back to its original shape, I give my patients the option of repeating Voluma treatment or going with a permanent filler like Bellafill. This is also a very safe and effective filler, but it does not get dissolved by the body, so it lasts for many years, or, with many people, the rest of their lives.
Whether temporary or permanent, Non Surgical Rhinoplasty takes 5 to 15 minutes to perform, involves minimal pain, minimal risk, no downtime or swelling and you can see the results immediately after the procedure.
If you do choose to have Non Surgical Rhinoplasty, make sure to find a physician who is very experienced in specifically this procedure and ask to see their before and after pictures. Hope that helps.

Hi there,

There are no clinical photos with this question so it is difficult to give very precise answers.  I would advise the following:
Yes, botox can reduce animation on the nasal tip that is due to some of the effect of orbicularis oris and nasalis muscles on the nose.  It is a good option but because it is temporary, you can expect to have to repeat this procedure every 4 - 5 months.

The asymmetry of the nostrils is much harder to fix and less likely to have a great result from non-surgical techniques.  This may be best repaired with an open rhinoplasty,  In this case, you may get your surgeon to resect the offending muscles at the same procedure, thereby stopping animation of the nasal tip permanently.

Seek a qualified plastic and reconstructive surgeon.
