Rhinoplasty is the reshaping of the nose for cosmetic or reconstructive purposes. It is one of the most popular and desired cosmetic procedures but, understandably, many patients are concerned about undergoing surgery due to the potential complications and the risk of unfavourable results.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is sometimes referred to as the ’15-minute nose job’. It is a safe, non-invasive alternative to surgery for people who wish to change the shape of their noses. The procedure uses dermal fillers – injected in small amounts in precise locations – to change the shape and contour of your nose.
Aesthetic Virtue is a London-based clinic; its dynamic team has extensive experience of conducting non-surgical rhinoplasty using dermal fillers. This facial aesthetics clinic has state-of-the-art facilities and enables patients to enjoy a comfortable and welcoming environment throughout their treatment.
At Aesthetic Virtue in London, our dermal filler treatments are very much tailored to the individual in order to leave your nose looking natural, attractive, and in harmony with the rest of your face. We will always strive to give you a naturally fabulous end result that exceeds your expectations and makes you feel confident about your appearance.
Our doctors are all fully accredited, advanced practitioners with years of experience in using dermal fillers to provide stunning results.
To find out whether you are a candidate for non-surgical rhinoplasty, you are invited to book a consultation at the Aesthetic Virtue clinic in London.
Dermal fillers provide a safe, non-surgical method of correcting the appearance of your nose. Non-surgical rhinoplasty offers immediate results, quicker healing time, minimal pain, and presents an affordable alternative to surgery.
As non-surgical rhinoplasty only requires the use of a topical anaesthetic, you are able to watch the procedure and give your feedback as it takes place to ensure that you are fully happy with the end result. The results of non-surgical rhinoplasty using dermal fillers are immediate and should last from six to 12 months.
Because this is a temporary procedure, opting for non-surgical rhinoplasty means that future adjustments can be made to your nose as your face changes and ages. This ensures that you keep a wonderfully natural look at all times.
At Aesthetic Virtue, Harley Street london Clinic London, we use a range of hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane and Teosyal. These are non-permanent fillers and their effects typically last for six to 12 months.
The hyaluronic acid used in these dermal fillers is produced biosynthetically by bacterial fermentation. (Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is found throughout your body. It gives volume to the skin, lubricates the joints and gives the eyes their shape).
All of our dermal filler options have a proven safety record and have been fully approved for use in Europe and the US.
Please arrange a consultation to discuss your treatment options in more detail.

What are dermal fillers?
Most dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid, a substance which is naturally found in the body. As we grow older, the amount of hyaluronic acid produced by the body starts to decrease (from our late 20s onwards), leaving skin which is dry and less hydrated. Injecting fillers into the skin is a method of restoring volume where it is depleted, or enhancing areas that lack volume.
What happens during the treatment?
At Aesthetic Virtue, we offer a thorough consultation which includes a discussion with the patient of the perceived problems and areas to be treated, facial examination and explanation of the various treatment options. A consent form is signed and pre-treatment photos are taken. Following a choice of numbing cream or local anaesthetic (depending on the area to be treated), the substance (which is in gel form) is injected into the dermis (middle layer of the skin) in small increments using a very fine needle. Results are immediately apparent. The treatment is carried out with the patient holding a mirror to judge the results and volume.
How long does the treatment take?
The injecting time can vary as this is volume dependent. It usually takes between ten and 30 minutes per area.
How quickly will I notice an effect?
The change in volume is immediately noticeable. However, it is common for the treated area to be a little bit red, swollen or even slightly bruised for a short while after.
How long do the effects of the treatment usually last?
This is highly dependent on individual variation and the area of the anatomy into which the filler is injected. Other factors such as smoking, age, degree of correction required, volume injected, type of filler etc. also contribute to this variable.
What are the possible side effects?
This is a very safe procedure in the hands of highly skilled and experienced practitioners, such as those found at Aesthetic Virtue. Common side-effects include redness, bruising and swelling and mild lumpiness. These usually resolve within a few hours, but bruises may last a couple of days.
Are there any possible serious complications?
Complications are very rare with dermal fillers but can include infection, severe bruising, cyst formation, granuloma formation, asymmetrical results or skin necrosis.
Is this treatment reversible?
Treatments with hyaluronic acid fillers can be reversed using hyalase to dissolve the product.
Post-treatment care
Avoid applying make-up over the treated area. Very gentle massage and an ice pack may help reduce the swelling and bruising. Sleep on two pillows for the first night to help alleviate any swelling, avoid hot baths, showers, saunas and strenuous exercise, as well as alcohol for four to six hours post treatment.

All my questions were addressed, treatment options, outcomes, potential side effects and after-care instructions were very clear. And the procedure was far less painful than I had imagined!
A gentle hand… you might have very possibly cured my needle-phobia finally! And thank goodness, as everybody thinks I’m looking younger and fresher now!
A clinic that insists on natural results! Fabulous! Now I’m loving the compliments.
Dr Raina has been my doctor for the last 18 months, and she will be for many months longer.
Recently my 20 year old daughter (who has beautiful full lips) told me she wanted to get her lips enlarged and that she had already spoken to another doctor about it, who was willing to do it for her. I took her along with me to discuss it with Dr Raina who explained to her that her natural lips are very nice and in proportion with the rest of her face. She mentioned that more volume will ruin the proportions and she would look ‘done’. We are both very grateful for the honesty there.
A very professional, honest and straightforward doctor with surgical skills to match! My right earlobe split 6 years ago, and I was too anxious to have it repaired.
Now, I have no idea why I didn’t get it done sooner!
After discussing the pros and cons of removing the mole on my face, I finally underwent the procedure. Three months on, I am very pleased with the result. I appreciate the no frills honesty and straightforwardness.
Highly professional… I will certainly be recommending you!
