While there has been an explosion of injectable fillers being used for facial lines and wrinkles, many patients are not aware that these same fillers can be used to improve the shape of the nose. The procedure is called “liquid rhinoplasty” and uses injectable fillers to smooth out depressions or hollows. In some cases the filler can also be used to help camouflage small bumps or humps on the nose. The procedure isn’t permanent, but the results may last up to a year or slightly more. It may be perfect for the patient that has a small nasal imperfection that isn’t interested in surgery.
