Nose correction without surgery

What 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.

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.
