Non-surgical rhinoplasty is quickly becoming one of the most sought after treatments in the aesthetics industry. Dubbed the ‘liquid nose job’, the procedure aims to fill in uneven areas of the nose, lifting the tip or levelling out the appearance of bumps on the bridge. The popular aesthetics treatment offers several benefits for both patient and practitioner, and further learning in its administration is an excellent option for aesthetics medicine training.
In this article, we’ll explore the intricacies of the non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure, as well as the expected results for patients and the advantages of gaining expertise in the treatment for aestheticians.
What is non-surgical rhinoplasty?
The liquid nose job procedure uses dermal fillers to enhance the nose’s appearance at a full 180-degree angle. Dermal filler is injected into the material under the nasal skin, in the deep subcutaneous tissues. The procedure itself typically takes no more than 15-20 minutes, after an initial 15 minutes of numbing — usually with a topical cream.
One of the biggest complaints from patients is that they dislike the appearance of their nose from a certain angle or that bumps or lumps along the bridge of the nose are more visible from their side profile. This problem typically makes clients great candidates for treatment, as the fillers work to smooth out areas of dominance. Well-placed filler can make the nose appear smaller since straightening out bumps will change the way the light hits the nose — although it should be noted that non-surgical rhinoplasty cannot physically decrease the size of the nose due to its non-invasive nature. Although these are less commonly requested, the treatment is also used to correct defects from surgical procedures and some birth conditions.
Non-surgical Rhinoplasty: Benefits for patients
Gone are the days of having to commit to extreme, invasive surgical procedures to enhance the appearance of your nose. Dermal filler injections make it possible to create beautiful, natural results with a short, simple procedure.
There are a wide variety of benefits of non-surgical rhinoplasty for patients, including:
Natural-looking results
The results of the liquid nose job are entirely customisable — patients and practitioners can collaborate to establish the desired effect and create a unique treatment plan to achieve it. The quantity of filler used is directly proportional to the nasal shape and injected directly into the problem sites on the nose to complement its existing shape and add subtle improvements. The procedure is an excellent choice for those looking for minor non-surgical rhinoplasty before and after results and a natural-looking enhancement.
Few side effects
Since there is no incision into the skin, there is very little chance of any severe complications occurring and no possibility of unsightly scarring that can come with surgical procedures. Generally, patients experience slight swelling, bruising and redness, which subsides within a few days.
Minimal downtime
The non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure takes around 15 minutes, and in most cases, patients can resume their everyday lives immediately following treatment. This contrasts significantly with a surgical nose job, which involves extensive, painful recovery time. With no need to take time off work or clear your schedule to make time for healing, aesthetic treatment is a hugely attractive option for busy parents and working professionals.
Affordability
It’s no secret that plastic surgery can run into thousands – or even tens of thousands – of pounds, making it a massive financial commitment. The non-surgical rhinoplasty cost is much more affordable and accessible for those with a modest budget. While top-up treatments are required to maintain the initial results, patients can choose when and how often to undergo further treatment.
Reversible results
One of the biggest hesitations of individuals considering surgical treatment is the finality of the results — the outcome is permanent and irreversible. With aesthetics procedures, the filler will eventually break down after a number of months. While temporary results may not initially seem like an advantage, it’s great for people who wish to try out the process and decide whether they love the results. The patient has the power to determine whether or not to continue with top-up treatments.
Non-surgical Rhinoplasty: Benefits of training for practitioners
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is one of the most requested treatments by patients throughout the UK, so gaining the necessary skills and expertise to administer the procedure confidently and effectively is vital to the success of any clinic. Not only will further training equip you with the tools to offer an in-demand treatment, but it can expand the portfolio you’re able to offer your patients. Because of the central position of the nose, patients can benefit from complementary procedures such as jawline fillers or lip augmentation to create an appealing profile and more symmetrical face. With expert training in non-surgical rhinoplasty, you can upsell other treatments to your patients and enjoy an increased level of business within your clinic.
