What Is A Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?

While a traditional rhinoplasty involves removing excess tissue and cartilage, and sculpting the area to a more pleasing, balanced shape and size, this procedure involves the use of dermal fillers to change the shape of the nose to a more attractive look. It is an effective method to camouflage cosmetic problems such as a dorsal hump (the bump or rise in the nose structure, visible when your face is viewed in profile), resolve any irregularities or other defects in shape, or enhance the nasal tip so it is more attractive, balanced, and in harmony with your other facial features.

For those who are reluctant to go under the knife but want to boost their appearance, Dr. Westreich offers an innovative alternative in his New York office: the non-surgical nose job. Increasingly popular, this latest advance in aesthetic medicine has made a media splash and may already be on your radar.

What Fillers Are Used For Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?

Dr. Westreich will choose the best filler for your result, which typically provides structure over soft volume in order to best mimic cartilage and bone. We typically use products made from hyaluronic acid, so they can be dissolved if needed. If you have had a non-surgical rhinoplasty in the past, the old filler should be dissolved prior to any surgical Rhinoplasty in the future.

Rhinoplasty vs Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

The non-invasive technique differs considerably from a traditional rhinoplasty and has its pros and cons.

Advantages:

  • Immediately visible results, during and after the procedure
  • No incisions necessary
  • Fast (can be completed in under 30 minutes)
  • Little to no patient discomfort during the procedure, no general anesthesia needed
  • Little to no bruising or swelling
  • No downtime or extended recovery period necessary
  • Few risks or potential complications
  • More affordable than traditional nose surgery
  • Reversible with a secondary injection

Limitations:

  • Results are temporary (last 6-12 months)
  • Cannot reduce the actual size of the nose
  • Cannot address functional and structural issues, such as a breathing obstructions caused by a deviated septum (see deviated nose surgery)
  • Certain areas should not be injected due to a high risk of vascular blockage
  • Vascular blockage can occur with any nasal injection
  • Patients with previous nasal surgeries may be at higher risk of complications with non-surgical rhinoplasty

What Types of Flaws can a Non-Surgical Nose Job Resolve?

While a non-surgical nose job in NYC with Dr. Westreich will not resolve every nose problem, it is effective for a range of flaws that impact the facial appearance. Some of the most common aesthetic issues that can be treated non-surgically include:

  • Bump on bridge of nose
  • Concave bridge of nose
  • Upturned nose
  • Droopy tip

Who is the ideal non-surgical rhinoplasty candidate?

The ideal candidate for a non-surgical nose job in NYC with Dr. Westreich is in overall good health, has realistic expectations, and does not require the removal of bone or cartilage to effectively reshape the nose. Although dermal fillers are generally well-tolerated, certain injectables may cause adverse reactions.

The non-surgical nose job is a relatively straight-forward procedure. However, the technique still requires an expert hand. Dr. Westreich, a rhinoplasty specialist with expertise in dermal fillers, frequently performs the non-surgical nose job and has gained recognition in his field. He has honed his medical and artistic craft, consistently achieving natural-looking and stunning results.

Your First Step in a Non-Surgical Nose Job

To perform the procedure, the first step is a full evaluation of your nose and face. We will determine what can be done to enhance your appearance and bring about a more pleasing balance between the nose and your other facial features. It takes the eye of an artist to understand how the features should enhance each other to create the look recognized as beauty in our culture. Dr. Westreich has an artist’s eye for balance and structure, and will carefully evaluate your condition and advise you of the most effective treatment to bring about the appearance you want. In many cases, our non-surgical nose job NYC will be the right treatment.

A 15-30 Minute Procedure

This procedure is quick, typically requiring 15-30 minutes to perform and producing immediate results. To inject the filler into the targeted area, Dr. Westreich uses a tiny cannula, similar to a needle, through which the filler will flow. The procedure is pain-free and does not involve downtime or a long recovery. No stitches, scalpels, or bandages are involved. Most patients can return to their normal activities directly after treatment. There are rare cases that involve bruising or blockage of a blood vessel, requiring dissolving, and swelling is minor. The technique is highly effective in getting the desired result, and a highly-skilled, board-certified plastic surgeon should only perform this procedure.

Use of Fractora During Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

The Fractora handheld device utilizes advanced “pin-based” or microneedling radio wave technology that can be used to improve the results of a non-surgical rhinoplasty. Fractora can tighten and smooth the skin on the nose, enhancing the results of your non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure.

How Fractora Works

The advanced Fractora device uses radiofrequency with small pin-like structures to penetrate and heat the skin. The wavelength of radio waves used during the procedure can permeate the top layer of skin and heat the subdermal layers of skin without damaging the surrounding tissues.

The heat energy produced by the pins in the Fractora device promote the generation of collagen to smooth and tighten the skin. Although also used in various facial zones such as cheeks, mouth, neck, and eye area, the device can also be used on the nose to enhance the results of your non-surgical rhinoplasty.

Use Fractora to Enhance Your Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

If you are dissatisfied with your non-surgical or surgical rhinoplasty procedure from another clinic and would like to improve the outcome, a Fractora treatment can help. The revolutionary device can be used to shrink the skin and further narrow the bridge of your nose to help you achieve the proportional, attractive nose you envisioned when undergoing the procedure.

Fractora provides a non-surgical way to alter your previous rhinoplasty procedure and maintain a smooth, straight, attractive nose.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments will vary depending on the degree of change needed. Some people will need as little as one treatment to improve the look of their nose, while others may need several treatments. The treatments are usually spaced approximately one month apart. Dr. Westreich will work with you to create a custom treatment plan appropriate for you.

Recovery & Aftercare Following Fractora

Your skin will take approximately two weeks to fully heal. During that time, you should avoid sun exposure to protect your skin. Any side effects are minor, and you will quickly be able to resume work and your other activities. Your results will begin to show as your skin tightens and produces more natural collagen, enhancing your overall facial appearance.

Types of Rhinoplasty

Open Rhinoplasty

This technique typically leaves a nearly invisible scar on the columella (the skin between the nostrils) and is commonly used for Rhinoplasty. The same surgery can be performed through both open and closed approaches. Due to his expertise in using the closed approach, Dr. Westreich uses the Open Rhinoplasty approach only for specific technical reasons in his practice.

Closed Rhinoplasty

During a closed rhinoplasty procedure, the surgeon performs the surgery through the nostrils without visible incisions. Through the nostrils, the surgeon can modify the cartilage and bones, add grafts and sutures, and have a full view of the nasal anatomy. Dr. Westreich prefers using a Closed rhinoplasty approach for several reasons:

  • Patients often heal quicker compared to open rhinoplasty.
  • The tip-profile relationship is easier to establish and predict using a closed approach
  • The blood supply to the nasal skin is preserved using the closed approach, which can result in less scarring and thinning of the skin over time.

Non-surgical Rhinoplasty

Results obtained from non-surgical rhinoplasty last between six months and two years. The procedure requires only topical anesthesia and 15-30 minutes to complete. Patients with prior nasal surgery should be aware of an increased risk of vascular blockage using non-surgical Rhinoplasty. Certain areas of the nose also carry a higher risk of complications with filler injection.
