Schedule appointmentNose correction (rhinoplasty) is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the world. But not everyone is comfortable with the idea of going under the knife to improve the appearance of their nose. Fortunately, there is a non-surgical alternative that can achieve impressive results: liquid rhinoplasty.
Dr. Rosalia LuketinaWhat is liquid rhinoplasty?
Liquid rhinoplasty, also known as non-surgical rhinoplasty or injectable rhinoplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dermal fillers to reshape the nose. This treatment can correct minor cosmetic imperfections such as unevenness, asymmetry, and a drooping nasal tip. Unlike traditional rhinoplasty, which requires general anesthesia and significant downtime, liquid rhinoplasty can be performed in a doctor’s office under local anesthesia, and the patient can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure.
Duration: 30 minutes
Hospitalization: no
Downtime: none
How is liquid rhinoplasty performed?
The first step in liquid rhinoplasty is a consultation with Dr. Rosalia Luketina. During this consultation, the provider will assess the patient’s nose and discuss their goals and expectations for the procedure. The potential risks and benefits of the treatment will also be discussed, and any questions the patient may have will be answered.
Once the patient has decided to undergo liquid rhinoplasty, the treatment area will be numbed with a local anesthetic to minimize discomfort. The dermal fillers, which are usually made of hyaluronic acid, are then injected into specific areas of the nose to improve its shape and contour. Dr. Rosalia Luketina will carefully monitor the progress of the procedure and make adjustments as necessary to ensure that the patient achieves the desired result.
The injection technique used in liquid rhinoplasty is highly specialized and requires an experienced physician who can perform it safely and effectively. The physician uses a microcannula, a thin, flexible tube, to inject the dermal fillers into the nose. This technique minimizes the risk of bruising, swelling, and other side effects that are common with traditional injections.
The amount of dermal filler used in liquid rhinoplasty varies depending on the individual needs and goals of the patient. Dr. Rosalia Luketina may need to inject the filler into several areas of the nose to achieve the desired result. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes, and patients can leave the practice immediately after the procedure.
After the procedure, there may be minor side effects such as bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection site. These symptoms are usually mild and subside within a few days. The patient should avoid strenuous activity, extreme temperatures, and excessive sun exposure for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
What to expect...
Treatment procedure
Non-surgical rhinoplasty typically uses hyaluronic acid fillers to improve the shape of the nose and smooth out irregularities.
The filler is injected into specific areas of the nose to smooth out bumps, create a straight line, or define the tip of the nose.
Quick implementation
The treatment often takes only about 15-30 minutes and is usually performed in the office of a cosmetic doctor or dermatologist.
Immediate results
The results are usually visible immediately, as the nose takes on its new shape right after the treatment.
No downtime
Unlike surgical rhinoplasty, there is no downtime, and most people can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.
Temporary effect
Since hyaluronic acid fillers are broken down by the body over time, the results are not permanent. However, the effects usually last for several months to a year, depending on the specific formulation of the filler and the individual's metabolism.
Minimally invasive nature
The treatment is minimally invasive, which means that it carries fewer risks and complications compared to the surgical option. Nevertheless, potential risks such as redness, swelling, or bruising after treatment should be taken into account.
Consulting and planning
Before treatment, a detailed consultation takes place to clarify the patient's expectations and ensure that the treatment meets their individual needs and wishes.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions about Nose correction without surgery
Liquid rhinoplasty is best suited for individuals with minor cosmetic imperfections of the nose, such as unevenness or asymmetry, or a hump nose. It is not recommended for patients with significant structural problems or breathing difficulties, as these conditions usually require surgical intervention. In addition, patients who have unrealistic expectations or who have had adverse reactions to dermal fillers in the past may not be good candidates for this treatment.
One of the main advantages of liquid rhinoplasty is that it is a non-invasive procedure. The dermal fillers used in this treatment are injected under the skin of the nose using a fine needle or cannula. This means that no incisions or sutures are required. As a result, there is no downtime or recovery period, and patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
Another advantage of liquid rhinoplasty is that the results are immediately visible and can last up to two years. This means that patients can enjoy a more aesthetic nose without the risks and costs associated with traditional rhinoplasty. In addition, liquid rhinoplasty is less expensive than surgical nose correction, making it an attractive option for patients who want to improve the appearance of their nose without breaking the bank.
Like any medical procedure, liquid rhinoplasty carries some risks and potential side effects. However, these risks are generally minimal compared to traditional rhinoplasty. Bruising, swelling, and redness may occur at the injection site, but these symptoms usually subside within a few days. In rare cases, complications such as infection or an allergic reaction may occur, but these are also relatively uncommon.
Yes, there are alternative treatment options such as surgical nose correction (rhinoplasty), which can offer more permanent results, but is also associated with a longer recovery time and higher risks.
As a rule, a single session is sufficient to achieve the desired results. Occasionally, however, additional sessions are necessary to further optimize the correction. The interval between sessions is usually several weeks.
