Non Surgical Rhinoplasty
NON SURGICAL RHINOPLASTY
The nose is the most focal part of your face – any visible imperfections can have a massive effect on your confidence. The treatment involves using a precise series of injections of Dermal Filler beneath the skin to smooth out lumps and bumps, enhance nose shape and restore balance to the face.
The Procedure is ideal for those who have:
- A lump or bump in the nose
- A bump or hook on the bridge of nose
- A flat or low ridge
- Asymmetrical nose
Many clients are often fearful to make changes to their nose, as it is the central part of the face, which others notice almost instantly. However, the changes that can be achieved using Dermal Fillers are natural looking, non-permanent with hardly any downtime – meaning you can get back to your normal routine straight away.
BENEFITS
- Improves the appearance of any imperfections such as lumps, bumps, asymmetry and indentations

- Has an optical illusion effect, as although we are adding filler, it can make the appearance seem smaller
- Once corrected can massively affect the client’s confidence
- The pleasure of improving the appearance of the nose without having to have surgery and the price that comes with it.
- No down time – go straight back to work
Treatment FAQ’s
HOW DOES THE TREATMENT WORK?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural constituent of skin, young skin is continuously moisturised from within by this naturally occurring sugar. It attracts and holds on to water to provide hydration, structure and volume.
Prior to treatment you will have an initial consultation to discuss your concerns and what you are hoping to achieve from treatment.
During the Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty treatment you will be fully conscious, a local anaesthetic will then be applied to numb the treatment area to increase your comfort.

You will be shown your nose at each step of the procedure so that you have complete control over the changes that are being made.

HOW LONG WILL THE RESULTS LAST FOR?
Dermal Fillers are well known for delivering outstanding results. Results from Dermal Fillers begin to show immediately after treatment and can last between 6-12 months depending on the product used. Results can vary depending on the individual, lifestyle choices and metabolism.
To give your filler the best chance of lasting as long as possible, there are filler aftercare steps you can take. If you look after your skin with sun cream and follow a good skin care regime then your dermal fillers will last longer.
In addition to this, for the best dermal filler aftercare, do not squeeze, massage or mess around with the treated area, as this could cause the filler to break down more quickly and mean you get to enjoy the results for less time. In areas of the face that we naturally move less, your fillers will naturally last longer.
WHO IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THIS TREATMENT?
- Anyone allergic to any of the ingredients in the dermal filler (Hyaluronic acid is a natural constituent of skin therefore you would not be allergic to this) Lidocaine is usually present within the hyaluronic acid gel formulation.
