Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty In Cincinnati, OH

Introduction to Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, or the “nose job,” has become one of the most requested plastic surgery procedures globally. The nose is the center of the face; thus, an attractive nose is everyone’s desire. Given this demand, there are now both surgical and non-surgical ways to alter the size and shape of the nasal elements. Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves the use of injectables such as dermal fillers. It is chosen by those who want a nose job that is non-invasive, impermanent, faster, more affordable, and has a lower recovery downtime.

To determine whether you are a candidate for a non-surgical rhinoplasty in Cincinnati, OH, consider scheduling a consultation with board-certified Dr. Shelli Ridge at Elite Medicine.

What Is ANon-Surgical Rhinoplasty?

Non-surgical rhinoplasty, also known as “liquid rhinoplasty,” is an outpatient alternative to traditional rhinoplasty for patients looking for minor changes to their nasal elements using dermal fillers. This procedure can be completed within half an hour, does not require anesthesia, and patients have minor side effects. Furthermore, the results of a liquid rhinoplasty can last up to 18-24 months.

This type of rhinoplasty is mostly chosen by those looking for aesthetic changes and not to address functional challenges like breathing problems. In functional cases, traditional rhinoplasty is the way to go, as patients want to ensure the results are long-lasting.

What’s the First Step?

The first step in getting a non-surgical rhinoplasty in Cincinnati is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Ridge at Elite Medicine. Dr. Ridge will discuss your health history, aesthetic goals, concerns, and expectations during the appointment. She will also examine your nasal elements and discuss the best techniques and injection sites.

Once you both decide to proceed, Dr. Ridge can draft your treatment plan. Given the quick and noninvasive procedure, scheduling may accommodate you on the same day as your initial consultation if you choose to proceed.

What to Expect on the Day of a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Treatment

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a non-invasive procedure that requires a few simple injections to achieve your desired results. It does not require anesthesia.

Once you arrive at the office, Dr. Ridge and the staff will ensure you are well-settled in the treatment room and review your plan if you have any further questions. Then, Dr. Ridge will start injecting the dermal fillers into the sites on your nose to achieve your desired contours.

These injections typically take roughly fifteen minutes or so to administer.

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Recovery

Liquid rhinoplasty does not involve downtime for recovery. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.

The cost of a non-surgical rhinoplasty in Cincinnati, OH, will vary depending on the complexity of your case, the type and volume of fillers being used, and the provider’s fees, among other things.
