Not every nose transformation requires surgery. Thanks to modern advances in cosmetic medicine, it’s now possible to reshape and refine your nose without going into surgery. At Vantage Plastic Surgery in New York City, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Aleksandr Shteynberg offers the liquid nose job—a fast, minimally invasive solution that uses fillers and neuromodulators to sculpt a more balanced, symmetrical nose with zero downtime.
Also known as non-surgical rhinoplasty, the liquid nose job is ideal for those seeking subtle yet noticeable improvement in the shape of their nose. Whether you want to smooth a hump, lift a drooping tip, or straighten minor asymmetry, dermal fillers offer a safe and effective way to achieve your goals—all in under 30 minutes, right here in our NYC office.
What Is a Liquid Nose Job?
A liquid nose job is a non-surgical procedure that uses injectable fillers—most commonly hyaluronic acid-based products like Restylane® or Juvederm®—to reshape and refine the nose. In some cases, neuromodulators like Botox® may also be used to relax certain muscles and subtly alter the nasal appearance.
Unlike traditional rhinoplasty, which involves cutting, reshaping cartilage, and significant recovery time, the liquid nose job requires only a few small injections. The results are temporary but can last up to 12–18 months, depending on the type of filler used and your individual anatomy.
What Can a Liquid Nose Job Fix?
While this non-surgical option doesn’t reduce the overall size of the nose or correct structural breathing issues, it’s remarkably effective at enhancing aesthetics. Dr. Shteynberg uses precise injection techniques to create a more harmonious facial profile by correcting:
- Dorsal humps (bumps on the bridge of the nose): Filler placed above and below the bump can create the illusion of a straighter bridge.
- A drooping nasal tip: Strategic use of filler and/or Botox can lift the tip for a more youthful, refined look.
- Crooked or asymmetrical appearance: Filler can balance uneven contours for improved symmetry.
- Flat or low nasal bridges: Particularly common among some ethnic profiles, fillers can build up the nasal bridge for a more defined shape.
- Post-surgical imperfections: For patients unhappy with minor irregularities following a previous rhinoplasty, a liquid nose job can offer a less invasive fix.
Benefits of Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
The popularity of liquid nose jobs continues to grow, especially among patients looking for a less invasive, lower-risk option with immediate results. Benefits include:
- No general anesthesia or surgical recovery
- Minimal discomfort (topical numbing is used)
- Immediate visual improvement
- Customizable and reversible (in most cases, hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved if desired)
- No scars or permanent incisions
- Can serve as a “trial” before committing to surgical rhinoplasty
Dr. Shteynberg has extensive experience in facial aesthetics and approaches each case with precision and artistry. At Vantage Plastic Surgery, your results will be natural-looking, balanced, and tailored to your unique facial structure.
Is It Right for You?
A liquid nose job is best for patients seeking subtle reshaping, not major structural changes. If your goal is to reduce the size of your nose, correct functional breathing problems, or significantly alter your nasal tip or bridge, surgical rhinoplasty may still be the better option. During your consultation at Vantage Plastic Surgery, Dr. Shteynberg will evaluate your goals, anatomy, and treatment history to determine the ideal plan for you.
Experience Matters—Choose a Skilled Injector
While it may seem simple, non-surgical rhinoplasty is a highly technical and delicate procedure that should only be performed by a trained specialist. The nose is a complex area with many blood vessels, and improper injection techniques can lead to complications. Dr. Shteynberg’s deep understanding of nasal anatomy—as both a plastic surgeon and experienced injector—ensures the highest level of safety and artistry in every procedure.
