Non-Surgical Nose Reshaping Canberra

A non-surgical nose job uses Volume Enhancement Treatment to change the shape and symmetry of the nose without surgery. The product is injected into the deeper layers of the skin of the nose (the perichondrium or periosteum), and a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to make the experience more comfortable.

The treatment takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and most patients return to their daily activities afterwards. Recovery, side effects and results vary for each patient.

During your consultation, a Cosmos Clinic doctor or nurse will assess your situation and goals, and give you a quote with a more accurate estimate of your individual treatment costs.

Who may be a suitable candidate for nose filler?

Patients with minor concerns such as asymmetry or bumps on the nose may be suitable for Volume Enhancement Treatment to improve symmetry and shape.

Some patients prefer to avoid surgical rhinoplasty because of its longer procedure time, recovery time and risks. Patients who have had surgical rhinoplasty in the past may also consider filler for further refinement.

Some patients are better suited to other treatments because of health concerns that make them ineligible for Volume Enhancement Treatment. Certain nose structures, such as a very high dorsal hump, may be better addressed with an alternative treatment.

Your suitability for nose reshaping is assessed during a consultation at Cosmos Clinic Canberra, as it depends on your personal features, goals and expectations.

Non-surgical nose reshaping results in Canberra

A non-surgical nose job using Volume Enhancement Treatment may help improve the appearance of a crooked nose, mask bumps or indentations and create a more balanced profile.

Addressing a nasal hump may also change how large the nose appears. Injectable filler is used to refine the nasal bridge and nasal tip, changing the shape of the nose. The procedure usually takes less than an hour.

Some reasons for considering non-surgical nose reshaping include:

• Flat bridge: Volume Enhancement Treatment can create a subtle increase in height
• Symmetry: a deviated or crooked nose, including the tip, can be made to look more even
• Camouflage: a bump or hook on the bridge of the nose can be made less visible
• Balance: the nose can be brought into better proportion with other facial features
• Refinement: minor irregularities following surgical rhinoplasty can be softened

You can discuss the concerns you would like to address during your consultation at Cosmos Clinic Canberra.

Results may vary from patient to patient.

Some patients notice minor swelling or bruising after treatment. This usually settles within days, and most patients can continue their daily routine.

Your Cosmos Clinic Canberra doctor or nurse will give you aftercare instructions, which may include:

• Applying a cold compress, such as an ice pack, to reduce swelling or bruising
• Using topical creams to manage swelling or bruising
• Avoiding makeup or skincare products for 24 hours after treatment
• If possible, avoiding wearing glasses for about 48 hours
• Avoiding vigorous exercise for 48 hours
• Avoiding heat exposure such as spas, or excessive sun exposure, for about one week
• Not pressing on or applying pressure to the nose

Possible risks and side effects of nose filler

All procedures carry risks and side effects. Bruising, swelling or tenderness are common and usually settle within days. In rare cases, Volume Enhancement Treatment can affect the blood vessels of the nose, which can lead to serious complications. Your practitioner will explain these risks during your consultation.

When might non-surgical rhinoplasty be preferred over surgery?

If your concerns are minor and may be improved with Volume Enhancement Treatment, or you want to avoid a permanent surgical change, a non-surgical nose job may be an option to discuss with your practitioner. It usually involves a shorter procedure and recovery time, and lower costs, than surgical rhinoplasty.
