Enhance Beauty and Confidence with Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
February 25, 2019Are you self-conscious about your nose but not ready for surgery? You may be a candidate for non-surgical rhinoplasty. Renowned Westborough facial plastic surgeon Dr. Min S. Ahn offers non-surgical rhinoplasty for individuals who desire minor cosmetic tweaks to their nose without surgery or downtime.
Read on to find out if non-surgical rhinoplasty with Dr. Ahn can enhance the way you look and feel.
What Is Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves injecting dermal fillers into the nose to conceal minor issues with its shape or symmetry. The procedure is conveniently performed in Dr. Ahn’s office and usually takes no more than 30 minutes. Our providers carefully inject the fillers in specific points on and around the nose to add shape and volume to the nose, improving its appearance.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is virtually painless, thanks to the application of a topical anesthetic. Patients experience minimal swelling and bruising and are free to return to most of their everyday activities immediately after treatment. Depending on the specific product used, results can last up to a year and a half.
What Does Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Address?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty can accomplish the following:
- Camouflage a pronounced bump on the nasal bridge
- Improve the appearance of a drooping nasal tip
- Make the nose appear slimmer and more defined
- Smooth out irregular contours of the nose to create a more symmetrical appearance
Non-surgical rhinoplasty may be a great choice for you if you only desire to make minor changes to the nose and do not want to undergo surgery or a long recovery; or if you are considering traditional rhinoplasty and would like to “preview” your potential results before committing to surgery. Non-surgical rhinoplasty is also a great option if you have had previous rhinoplasty and want to make slight modifications to your results.
Who Is Not a Candidate for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty only corrects minor cosmetic irregularities. The procedure cannot change the nasal structures and therefore is not appropriate for interior or functional issues of the nose such as a deviated septum. If you desire extensive changes to the aesthetics of your nose, or suffer from impaired breathing or other functional issues, non-surgical rhinoplasty is not appropriate.
