Hi, I’m interested in getting dermal filler (“liquid rhinoplasty). I want a slimmer bridge and a sloped look from the side. A pointier tip would be nice as well. Can this be achieved through filler, or is a traditional rhinoplasty the best option? Thank you.
Answer: No you need a Rhinoplasty (Nosejob) Surgery | Facial Plastic Surgery | Expert | Revision | Non-Surgical | Filler | Liquid Rhino Hello and thank you for your question! It sounds like your primary concern is the shape of your nasal bridge and tip—one of the most common reasons people seek out both primary and revision rhinoplasty. These issues can only be properly addressed through rhinoplasty—fillers will simply add more volume to your bridge (making it wider, not thinner), and they lack the structural strength to precisely refine the shape of the tip.

Answer: Liquid rhinoplasty is a very good "preview" of what a surgical rhinoplasty can do Without seeing a picture of your nose, I can't give you precise recommendations. But, in general, fillers work well to elevate and add dimension to the nasal tip. Augmenting the bridge and the area high up on the nose almost at eye level (radix) can make the nose look "more sloped" from the side. Noses that have a tight skin envelope at the tip are a but more challenging, and usually need to have the filler added in stages.

Answer: Rhinoplasty techniques may be necessary to achieve a slope on your nasal bridge. In general, injectable fillers may be considered for raising somebody's nasal bridge, especially if they feel that it is too low and sloped. In that regard, only rhinoplasty surgical techniques may be considered for achieving a nasal slope. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Answer: No, you'd need a rhinoplasty. More ... When you think about how filler works, you can figure this stuff out for yourself! So, a sloped profile: with filler, you inject something under the skin. Something gets bigger, wider, taller, because there is *more* of the nose under the skin--the original nose plus the bulk of the filler. To get a sloped profile, you must *remove* some of the bump. Adding to the bump won't do it. For the pointy tip, if you *add* bulk to the tip, it will get rounder, wider, not pointier. And I'll let you work out whether the bridge would get slimmer by adding material to it. See? Most of the time, a real rhinoplasty is the solution.
