Non-surgical rhinoplasty in Basingstoke

Non-surgical rhinoplasty uses dermal fillers to change the contours of the nose without an operation. Also called a non-surgical nose job or liquid rhinoplasty, it may suit people seeking a subtle change to their profile. It adds volume rather than making the nose smaller, and it cannot achieve every change possible with surgery.

At Skin Hampshire in Basingstoke, a consultation is the starting point for discussing your concerns, the changes you would like and whether treatment is appropriate for you.

What can nose fillers change?

Carefully placed filler may soften the appearance of a small bump by adding volume around it, improve some contour irregularities or create a more balanced side profile. The changes possible depend on your anatomy, skin and any previous treatment.

Filler does not remove a bump, narrow the nose or reduce its underlying size. It does not treat breathing problems. If your main goal is a smaller nose, a substantial structural change or help with nasal function, a surgical assessment may be more appropriate.

Your consultation at Skin Hampshire

Skin Hampshire is led by Dr Naureen Akhtar and is based at Worting House, Church Lane, Worting, Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG23 8PY.

Your consultation should cover your medical history, previous nose surgery or filler, your expectations and the benefits, limitations and risks of the available options. Tell the clinician about any previous nasal treatment, even if it was some time ago.

Before deciding, ask which filler would be used, why it is suitable, what aftercare involves and how to get urgent help if a complication occurs. Treatment may not be recommended following assessment.

What happens during treatment?

If treatment is appropriate and you choose to proceed, the clinician places small amounts of filler in selected areas to alter the nose’s contour. The proposed technique, comfort measures and treatment plan should be explained before you give consent.

Changes may be visible immediately, although swelling can affect the early appearance. Allow the area to settle before judging the result.

Recovery and aftercare

Swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising can occur after nose filler. Their extent and duration vary, so allow flexibility around work, social plans and important events rather than relying on a fixed downtime promise.

Follow the individual aftercare instructions you receive, including advice about pressure on the nose, activity and when to seek help. Ask the clinic when your result should be reviewed.

Risks and suitability

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a medical procedure with potentially serious complications. Alongside swelling and bruising, filler can cause infection, lumps, asymmetry or an unwanted result.

A particularly serious complication is blockage of a blood vessel, which can damage skin and other tissue. Rarely, filler injections can cause permanent loss of vision. The nose is a higher-risk area for vascular complications, so the risks and the arrangements for managing them need careful discussion before treatment.

Severe or increasing pain, unusual whitening or darkening of the skin, or any change in vision after filler requires immediate medical assessment. Do not wait for a routine follow-up appointment.

How much does non-surgical rhinoplasty cost?

Skin Hampshire’s published price for non-surgical rhinoplasty is £350. Check the current nose-filler price and confirm your treatment plan, total cost and what is included before proceeding.

Common questions

Will nose filler make my nose smaller?

No. Filler adds volume. It may make the profile look smoother or more balanced in suitable cases, but it does not reduce the size of the nose.

How long does non-surgical rhinoplasty last?

Results are not permanent. How long they remain visible depends on the product, amount used, previous treatment and your individual response. Discuss the expected duration and future review with your clinician rather than assuming a fixed top-up schedule.

Is a liquid nose job the same as non-surgical rhinoplasty?

Yes. Liquid rhinoplasty, a liquid nose job and a filler nose job commonly describe nose reshaping with injectable dermal filler. They are different from surgical rhinoplasty.

Can I have nose filler after rhinoplasty surgery?

Previous surgery can change the anatomy and increase the complexity of treatment. Tell the clinician about it before considering filler. Suitability needs an individual assessment; previous surgery does not automatically make filler an appropriate option.
