What You Need To Know About Non-Surgical Nose Jobs
Like any medical or cosmetic procedures, some injection-related side effects can occur including redness, tenderness, swelling and bruising. “On a basic level, infection and a poor cosmetic outcome can occur. If a blood vessel is injected or the blood supply to the nose is compromised it can lead to pain, permanent scarring, necrosis (soft tissue death) and deformity — both of the nose and areas around it such as between the eyes. Permanent blindness can occur due to the blood supply to the eyes being impaired.” Says Dr Jonquille Chantrey, who is a surgeon & Global Key Opinion Leader, and voted No.1 UK Doctor by The Aesthetics Awards. Dr Chantrey specializes extensively in aesthetic medical procedures and founded ØNE aesthetic studiø with over 10 years of plastic and cosmetic surgery experience in microsurgery, breast, facial surgery and burns reconstruction. “Injection rhinoplasty is an advanced procedure that requires highly skilled expertise.”
Costs of non-surgical nose job can vary considerably depending on which country, or even where in the country the patient is, as well as the anatomy of the nose and the work involved. Dr Chantrey says: “A typical cost with an expert will start from £950 (approx. $1,300) compared with a surgical rhinoplasty that can range between £4,000 to £8,000 (approx. $5,500 – $11,000) depending on the complexity.” It’s worth noting that non-surgical options can be more expensive in the long run compared to surgery, if it’s something the patient continues to get for years.
