Nonsurgical rhinoplasty with filler to fill in a dip in the nasal bridge of a middle-aged woman

Rhinoplasty is generally considered a surgical procedure, where nasal bone and cartilage is reshaped. With newer techniques, nose reshaping can be performed without surgery in appropriate patients. Facial fillers, such as Restylane®, are being used by the best rhinoplasty surgeons to modify the nose.

This woman has a complex nasal and sinus surgical history, including prior rhinoplasty. She wanted to reduce the depression just above the tip and did not want another surgery. She was referred to Dr. Chaboki for his facial plastic surgery expertise. He offered non-surgical rhinoplasty, as a liquid lift for the nose. A conservative treatment in the office helped improve the appearance of her nose without surgery.
