A non-surgical rhinoplasty, is a non-invasive procedure to improve the appearance of the nose with filler. The filler is used to improve the aesthetic contour and dimensions of the nose by adding to areas of the nose that are deficient. It can be added to the nasal dorsum to improve the profile of the nose and to the tip to increase tip projection. Filler can also be used to fill the base of the nose to increase projection of the nose. It is important to know that a non-surgical rhinoplasty is not permanent but the results can last for up to a year. As with a surgical rhinoplasty procedure, every nose is unique, which is why each patient at our practice receives personalized care, an individualized course of treatment, and the safest and most innovative techniques.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty can also be useful to treat:
- A nasal profile with a depression or hump on the bridge of the nose
- An asymmetrical nose
- Poor tip projection
- Poor tip aesthetics
Am I a Candidate for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty?
If you have minor asymmetries of the nose, a dorsal hump, or a low nasal tip, you may be a candidate for a non-surgical rhinoplasty. If you are not sure about having a surgical rhinoplasty and would like to see what minor adjustments will look like, a non-surgical rhinoplasty may be a good starting point for you. It is important to know that a non-surgical rhinoplasty will not improve breathing issues related to your nose. There are specific indications for a non-surgical rhinoplasty and your board certified plastic surgeon will be able to determine if the procedure is right for you.
Patients who smoke or are otherwise not in good physical health are typically not ideal candidates for non-surgical rhinoplasty.
What to Expect from a Consultation
Any medical center or practice you choose should be willing to sit down with you and take the time to explain all aspects of the procedure beforehand, including associated risks and recovery. At the Plastic Surgery Clinic of Chicago, we thoroughly review your medical history, speak with you about your expectations, and provide you with an extensive overview of the aesthetic details of a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure.
How a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty is Performed
First, a local anesthetic is placed on the nose and surrounding area. Next, the filler is strategically placed in the nose to address the specific aesthetic goals of the patient. This can be placed along the nasal dorsum to improve the contour of a dorsal hump. The filler can also be placed at the tip to increase tip projection and improve the aesthetics of the nasal tip. The procedure is quick and can be performed in 10-15 minutes. The results can last up to 1 year.
Recovery after a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Recovery after a non-surgical rhinoplasty is similar to the recovery after the placement of any dermal filler. The dermal filler results are almost immediate, as are the visible results. Ice packs are used after the treatment to reduce swelling. The injection sites will likely feel tender for a couple of days after the injections, but are not typically painful enough to require medication.
With some dermal fillers, you may experience an “overfull” appearance in the treated areas, or hypersensitivity that may seem like an allergic reaction. These conditions usually resolve within a few hours. If symptoms persist, be sure to speak with your plastic surgeon.
Potential Risks of Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Patients should be aware that non-surgical rhinoplasty, as with any medical procedure, come with potential risks. Each individual should consider both the benefits and known risks before making the decision to have a non-surgical rhinoplasty. Such risks may include:
- Swelling and bruising at the injection site
- Asymmetry
- Lumps beneath the skin
- Changes in skin sensation
Always make sure that the plastic surgeon performing the procedure is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery because experience and credentials matter.
What Does Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Cost?
The cost of this type of procedure is going to fluctuate based on location, surgeon, center, and the individual patient’s needs. Dermal filler injections can range from $500 to $1000 per syringe depending on the product used and the site to be injected. Be sure to discuss costs with your plastic surgeon during your consultation. The Plastic Surgery Clinic of Chicago always provides a detailed breakdown of costs during your initial consultation.

Fall and Winter 🤝 The Best Seasons for Plastic Surgery
Why are Fall and Winter the best times to get plastic surgery?
1. Less Sun Exposure
— Reduced sunlight is favorable for minimizing hyperpigmentation and promoting scar healing.
2. Loose-Fitting Clothes
— Wearing layers of loose clothing in the colder months allows for more protection of surgical areas and easier concealment of bandages and compression garments, making the recovery process less noticeable.
3. Reduced Swelling
— Cooler temperatures help to minimize swelling after surgery and speed up the recovery process.
4. Holiday Time Off
— The holiday season usually provides extended time off from work or school, which is beneficial for post-operative recovery
At our clinic, patient care is our top priority, and choosing the right time for your procedure is part of that commitment. Thus, we optimally recommend the fall and winter time to plan, undergo, and recover from plastic surgery. 🍂❄️

Ethnic Rhinoplasty is all about enhancing your natural beauty while respecting the unique features that make you, you! Ethnic rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct both functional and aesthetic concerns in the nose of a patient of Asian, Middle Eastern, Hispanic or African American descent. Our goal is to create balanced, results that are still harmonious to your racial background and individuality. Aesthetic beauty ideals and facial features can be vastly different between races and therefore, it is important to consider ethnic differences when planning and performing this procedure. 🫶
This patient wanted a subtle, natural change to her nose. We reduced her dorsal hump, slimmed down her nasal dorsum, defined and lifted the tip of her nose, and reduced her nostril show. Posted with permission.

How do you choose the best breast implant size for your body? Breast augmentation, one of our most sought-after procedures, uses implants to enhance your breasts’ shape and size. Consulting with your plastic surgeon is key to helping you decide which breast implant size is the best for your body and goals! Here is a general guideline for determining cup sizes. ✍️
Each body type and breast footprint is different and there are various factors such as your height, weight, and breast measurements that will affect which cup size is most ideal for you. Cup size is very arbitrary and subjective for each patient. Implant sizes range anywhere from 100 CC to 800 CC. In general, 200 CCs represent a 1-cup size increase. In the video, you can see various examples of cup size increases in the breast augmentations that patients have undergone. The best way to determine which breast implant size is best for your body is by consulting a board-certified plastic surgeon who will help you make the best decision.

Breast augmentation, one of our most popular procedures, is a surgical procedure that uses implants to enhance the size and projection of the breasts. It’s important to consult with your surgeon to help decide which breast implant type is the best for your body and goals! Here is a quick breakdown of the different breast implant types to help you make an informed decision. 💭
Low-Profile: Low-profile implants are less filled, lower in height and projection, and have a wider base. These implants are ideal for patients who want a natural, subtle enhancement and result.
Moderate-Profile: Moderate-profile implants are more filled, medium in height, and standard in projection. In comparison to low-profile implants, they have a slightly narrower base width relative to projection. These implants are ideal for patients who want natural results with more projection.
High-Profile: High-profile implants are even more filled, tall in height, and have maximum projection in combination with a narrow base width. These implants are ideal for patients who want a more dramatic result with high projection.
Textured: Textured implants are not recommended for primary augmentation. These implants are linked to breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL).
Sizer: Sizer implants are silicone devices that help patients and surgeons determine the right implant size for a patient’s frame and goals. These implants can also give a good estimate of postoperative size.

Do you have a double chin or loose skin that you want to get rid of? Do you want to improve your jawline and neck contour but don’t know the best procedure to meet your goals? If this is you, check out this video! Here is a general framework: If you are in your 20s and 30s, have good skin quality without laxity, and have excess fat underneath your chin and neck region, you would benefit from neck liposuction alone. If you are in your 40s or 50s and beyond, have loose skin deflation and descent to the soft tissue of the face and neck, then you would be a good candidate for a face lift anf neck lift. There are skin tightening devices on the market that can help with mild skin laxity and can be performed with liposuction. But if you have moderate to severe skin laxity, then a neck lift would be a better option for you. Posted with permission.
