Non-surgical rhinoplasty, also known as liquid rhinoplasty, is a popular and effective alternative to traditional surgical procedures. This innovative treatment, offered at our doctor-led clinics in Belfast and Bangor by Dr. Mark McCoubrey, utilises injectable fillers to reshape and enhance the nose without the need for invasive surgery. Lets look at what the non-surgical rhinoplasty actually does.
What Concerns Can Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Treat?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is versatile and can address a variety of aesthetic concerns:
-
Dorsal Humps: One of the most common concerns treated by non-surgical rhinoplasty is the presence of a dorsal hump. By strategically injecting fillers above and below the hump, Dr. McCoubrey can create a smoother, more balanced profile.
-
Nasal Asymmetry: Patients with asymmetrical noses can benefit significantly from this treatment. Fillers can be used to even out irregularities, providing a more symmetrical and harmonious appearance.
-
Tip of the Nose: The tip of the nose can be reshaped to appear more refined. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with a drooping or bulbous tip. Fillers can lift and define the nasal tip, enhancing overall facial balance.
-
Saddle Nose Deformity: A saddle nose deformity, characterised by a depression or collapse of the nasal bridge, can be effectively treated with non-surgical rhinoplasty. Fillers restore volume and create a more natural contour.
-
Nasal Bridge: Patients looking to elevate a flat nasal bridge or refine their nasal profile can achieve noticeable improvements. Fillers can add height and definition to the bridge, enhancing the nose's overall structure.
-
Post-Surgical Irregularities: Individuals who have undergone surgical rhinoplasty but are dissatisfied with minor irregularities or asymmetries can benefit from non-surgical touch-ups. Fillers can smooth out these imperfections without additional surgery.
Benefits of Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty offers numerous benefits, making it an attractive option for many patients:
-
Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional rhinoplasty, which requires incisions and extensive recovery time, non-surgical rhinoplasty involves only injections. This means no scars, less pain, and minimal downtime.
-
Immediate Results: Patients can see immediate improvements after the procedure, with results that continue to refine over the following days.
-
Temporary and Adjustable: The use of hyaluronic acid fillers, which are naturally absorbed by the body over time, allows for temporary changes. This is ideal for those who are unsure about committing to permanent alterations or wish to test out changes before opting for surgery. Adjustments can also be made easily in follow-up sessions.
-
Quick Procedure: The entire treatment typically takes less than an hour, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
-
Low Risk: With fewer risks compared to surgical rhinoplasty, non-surgical options carry a lower risk of complications such as infection or significant swelling.
