Is non-surgical rhinoplasty a good option to lift and perk up my nose tip, especially from the front? (Photos)

Hi, Dr. Khorasani here!Non-surgical nose augmentation offers an alternative to surgical rhinoplasty. This minimally invasive approach can improve the appearance of your nose and overall facial symmetry by using injectable dermal fillers.
Sometimes, when patients want to make changes to the nasal tip, we can inject dermal filler. If your nose tip dips down or is too short, we can sometimes use fillers to re-sculpt and shape your nose.
It is important to remember that a non-surgical rhinoplasty will not yield the same dramatic results as surgical intervention.

In general, when somebody has a droopy and dependent nasal tip appearance, that gets worse with smiling, rhinoplasty surgery is indicated to achieve a less distracting, and permanently lifted nasal tip appearance. Thank you so much for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Non-surgical rhinoplasty can be a viable option for lifting and reshaping the tip of the nose to achieve a more balanced and perky appearance, especially when viewed from the front. Here are some key points to consider:

Procedure: Non-surgical rhinoplasty typically involves the use of dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid-based products, to add volume and contour the nose. This can help lift the tip and improve symmetry without invasive surgery.

Results: While this procedure can effectively address minor adjustments and provide a temporary lift to the nasal tip, the results are not permanent. Typically, the effects last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.

Limitations: Non-surgical rhinoplasty is best suited for minor enhancements and is not ideal for significant structural changes. It may not be able to fully address issues related to large droopiness or functional concerns.

Consultation: It's essential to consult with an experienced practitioner who can assess your specific needs and determine if this approach aligns with your aesthetic goals.

Overall, non-surgical rhinoplasty can be an effective way to enhance the appearance of your nose tip with minimal downtime and risk.

A couple of microdroplets of Botox placed on each side of the base of columella, couple with a low viscosity, cohesive, malleable HA filler placed in the areo at the base of the columella as it joins the nose are two simple measures for nonsurgically elevating the nasal tip. I have been using this approach for many years with very gratifying results. Hope this helps and best of luck.

You won't believe the remarkable results we get with filler to the nose tip. Look up #Bostontipflip for lots of non- surgical rhinoplasty results. Most patients now adays will seek out nonsurgical or liquid rhinoplasty before their actual rhinoplasty to get an idea of what's possible and the results they're seeking,

In a "non-surgical" rhinoplasty, filler is injected into the nose. When you put something *in*, the nose gets *bigger*. Wider, longer, more projecting -- something along the lines of *bigger*. You can't make any measurement *smaller* by putting something *in*, and you want the length of the nose to be smaller.

And the filler can't push anything up; it just sits where you put it. It doesn't do any work. And even if it could, the length of your nose, the droopiness of the tip, is controlled by the size and position of the two cartilages that form the tip of your nose. They won't allow the tip to come up unless they are modified, and that's a rhinoplasty.

Everything in rhinoplasty, like in woodworking, or orthopedics, is supposed to make mechanical sense. And it's never made sense to me that you can make a nose smaller by adding something under the skin!

I have had the opportunity to meet someone as a patient who came in for a rhinoplasty. She had undergone nasal filler injection in Vegas and went blind in one eye within 5 minutes. Your nose looks beautiful. Do you really want to take a chance on fillers in the nose?
If you do, then please ask the injector if they have the knowledge and training to prevent blindness and to address it immediately if it happens.

When I see a patient for non surgical rhinoplasty I perform a full consultation with computer imaging. I demonstrate to the patient what can be achieved non surgically and surgically. You nose can absolutely be elevated and refined non surgically. I would suggest seeing an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who also performs injections. No procedure is completely risk free, but having thorough knowledge of the anatomy will definitely diminish the potential risks.
