5-Minute Nose Job
The non-surgical nose job is a new and exciting alternative available to patients interested in improving the shape of their nose without undergoing invasive surgery. The benefits of nose jobs without surgery are faster results, no healing time, and little or no pain.
What is the 5-minute Nose Job ?
Patients who are interested in nose surgery may be surprised to find out they are actually candidates for a non surgical nose job. This popular new treatment is an excellent alternative to the traditional rhinoplasty procedure.
A nose job without surgery involves using injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, Restylane®, or Radiesse® to shape and contour the nose. Unlike a surgical procedure, these fillers allow patients to obtain quick results with little or no healing time.
Candidates for the 5-minute nose job
A rhinoplasty job without surgery is an excellent option for patients who want a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure and who are looking for fast, satisfying results.
Most nose job patients visit a surgeon to get rid of bumps and bulges on their nose. When nasal imbalance is minor, a nasal reconstruction without surgery can provide patients with outstanding results and an improved overall appearance. Unfortunately, those with major nasal deformities and those who are looking to reduce the size of their nose are not candidates for the 5 minute non-surgical nose job. For these patients, surgical intervention is necessary.
The 5-minute nose job is an excellent and affordable option for patients who would like to achieve a more pleasing appearance without undergoing extensive rhinoplasty.
Liquid Face Lift
Over the years, the face begins to lose collagen and elastin which contribute to sagging facial features. The loss of facial volume and elasticity also lead to the formation of wrinkles, creases and folds. During the past few years, a specialized group of physicians began treating wrinkles with newly FDA-approved dermal fillers and BOTOX®. During this time, the physicians began to notice an accompanying benefit. As these procedures were performed with particular products and with certain injection techniques, facial features exhibited a gentle lift, as well.
Some of these physicians refined techniques to focus on lifting and contouring, with an ancillary benefit of wrinkle reduction (rather than the other way around). This has spawned a somewhat revolutionary new approach in treating sagging facial features, which has begun to be called a Liquid Face Lift.
In broad terms, a Liquid Face Lift can be undertaken to accomplish gentle lift of individual (or overall) facial features, reduced wrinkles, creases or folds, restoration of natural, curved facial contours, a more rested, energetic look and a friendlier smile.
A Liquid Face Lift involves the use of advanced dermal fillers, usually in combination with BOTOX®. The dermal fillers used are among a group of 2nd generation dermal fillers that provide more enduring results than earlier products. The new group of 2nd generation, advanced dermal fillers includes Juvederm™ Ultra, Juvederm™ Ultra Plus, Radiesse®, Restylane® and Perlane®.
Each of these dermal fillers has unique attributes that work in their own special way to contour specific areas of the face. In general, dermal fillers replace lost volume in the face or help the body regenerate its own collagen. Precisely placed, the dermal fillers can be used to lift or contour any number of facial features.
