As the original inventor of the non-surgical nose job, Dr. Cameron Rokhsar, has performed more nose injections than any other doctor in the United States. Dr. Rokhsar was the first to report on the use of fillers to perform the non-surgical nose job and his non-surgical technique has become the gold standard among other cosmetic dermatologic surgeons. Dr. Rokhsar appeared on many news shows including GOOD MORNING AMERICA and the Rachel Ray Show to perform his non-surgical nose on live TV. Dr. Rokhsar has lectured on his non-surgical nasal contouring techniques extensively at medical meetings around the country.
Dr. Rokhsar uses long-lasting dermal fillers to contour the nose and conceal minor flaws during his 15-minute non-surgical nose job. Dr. Rokhsar’s goal with every patient is to create a nose that blends well with the rest of the face. By refining sharp edges, filling in depressions, and lifting the nasal tip, Dr. Rokhsar delivers instant results. For the best possible outcome, Dr. Rokhsar will choose a filler that suits your particular needs and will deliver the best outcome for the particular issues of your nose.
Two liquid rhinoplasties by Dr. Rokhsar
A liquid nose job, also known as a non-surgical or liquid rhinoplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the injection of dermal fillers into specific areas of the nose to enhance its shape and contour. The fillers used are typically made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body and can provide temporary volume and definition to the treated area. Other fillers used may contain calcium such as Radiesse which is ideal for creating bridges in people with flat noses.
This procedure is typically used to address imperfections of the nose, such as a dorsal hump, asymmetry, or a drooping nasal tip. It can also be used to correct nasal deviations and provide an overall more aesthetically pleasing appearance to the nose. It can also create beautiful nose bridges for people with flat noses and create a narrow slim nose. Compared to traditional rhinoplasty, a liquid nose job is a less invasive and less expensive option, with no downtime required giving natural-looking results. The great benefit of a liquid nose job is that you will not look like a different person.
However, the results of a liquid nose job are temporary, lasting anywhere from 6-24 months, depending on the type of filler used and the individual’s metabolism.
Radiesse is a dermal filler that is commonly used for non-surgical nose jobs. This procedure involves the injection of Radiesse into specific areas of the nose to improve its appearance, such as smoothing small bumps, reshaping the nose, improving nasal and facial contours, and making the tip more prominent.
Radiesse is particularly suitable for the hard-nose bridge area as it is made up of calcium-based particles. This filler has been shown to provide the elevation that many patients seek for their nose bridge. One of the advantages of choosing a non-surgical nose job with Radiesse is that it avoids the typical risks and complications that are associated with any plastic surgery procedure. It can be performed as an in-office procedure using only a cream anesthetic or oftentimes just ice, while avoiding the need and costs of a surgery center and general anesthesia.
A non-surgical nose job using Radiesse is a temporary solution, lasting around 6-18 months.
Radiesse is the dermal filler of choice for Dr. Rokhsar for Asians and African American with flat bridges, thanks to its unique characteristics that allow him to shape and fill the nose accurately to create a bridge while providing lasting results.
Juvederm is a safe and effective option for non-surgical nose jobs. This type of treatment involves injecting a dermal filler, like Juvederm, into specific areas of the nose to reshape and contour it. Juvederm is a member of a special class of injectable products that can contour, fill, or shape the body and facial features, including the nose. The filler can be used to enhance the nasal shape, smooth out bumps or irregularities on the bridge of the nose, and even refine the tip of the nose. It can also be used to correct nasal deformities as a result of surgical rhinoplasty.
One of the benefits of using Juvederm for a non-surgical nose job is that it is a quick, safe, non-invasive procedure with little to no downtime. The temporary, injectable filler is FDA approved in the United States and can produce noticeable results that can last up to a year. The procedure is ideal for those who want to avoid surgery and the recovery time that comes with it. Additionally, Juvederm is biocompatible and biodegradable, meaning that it is not harmful to the body and will eventually break down and be removed.
Restylane is a popular hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that has been used for non-surgical nose contouring. This technique involves injecting the filler into specific areas of the nose to reshape and enhance its appearance and lift a droopy nose tip. The results are temporary, lasting up to a year, and can help patients avoid surgery or get a better idea of what their nose could look like before committing to a rhinoplasty. Restylane is considered safe and effective for nose contouring when performed by a skilled and experienced board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.
Other Restylane products, such as Restylane Lyft and Restylane Defyne, are also used for cheek augmentation, midface contour deficiencies, and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. Restylane Contour, specifically designed with XpresHAn Technology, is an innovative cheek filler that moves with natural facial expressions while providing restored cheek shape and definition.
Vollure is a dermal filler that is primarily used for the correction of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the mouth area, such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Vollure is particularly a good filler for filler rhinoplasty because Dr. Rokhsar has discovered that it causes the least amount of swelling compared to all other HA dermal fillers as well as Radiesse. The other advantage of Vollure filler for the nose is that the FDA has allowed the filler to claim that it lasts for up to 18 months, 6 months longer than most other FDA-approved available HA fillers in the United States.
Botox and fillers can be used for nose reshaping without surgery. Botox injections can be used to smooth out wrinkles on the nose and surrounding area, and can also be used to correct small nasal deformities that affect the overall facial appearance. Botox can be used to get rid of nose wrinkles called bunny lines. In addition, botox can be injected at the base of the columella of the nose, potentially raising the tip of the nose. Fillers such as Restylane, Radiesse, Vollure, and Juvéderm can also be used to change the shape of the nose without surgery. These fillers are most effective for minimizing the appearance of a nose hump, improving irregularities after rhinoplasty surgery, and correcting asymmetries as well as hiding a nose bump and creating a nasal bridge.
A botched filler nose job can be a frustrating and difficult problem for patients to deal with. When a filler is not injected correctly into the nose, it can cause a variety of issues such as an asymmetrical or over-projected appearance, lumps and bumps, and even skin necrosis in rare cases.
As a board-certified dermatologist and expert in injectables, Dr. Rokhsar has seen many patients who have experienced complications from botched filler nose jobs. Nasal contouring fillers are not a substitute for a surgical rhinoplasty and should only be performed by experienced injectors who have a deep understanding of facial anatomy and aesthetics.
If you are unhappy with the results of a previous filler nose job, there are options available to correct the problem. One of the most common options is to dissolve the filler using hyaluronidase, which is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid fillers. This can help to reduce the appearance of lumps and bumps and restore a more natural-looking nose. Dr. Rokhsar has done more non-surgical nose jobs than any other doctor and can guide you on how to properly fix your botched filler nose job.
fixing cosmetic issues with fillers is a viable option for certain nose concerns. Non-surgical rhinoplasty, or filler rhinoplasty, is a type of cosmetic rhinoplasty that utilizes dermal fillers to address dips, irregularities, asymmetries, and other cosmetic concerns in the nose.
Filler rhinoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to lift a droopy nasal tip, smooth out bumps, correct a small bump, and give the nose a straighter appearance by offsetting asymmetric angles. It is suitable for:
A droopy nasal tip can be caused by various factors, such as genetics, aging, or injury. Fortunately, there are several options to address this issue, including surgical and non-surgical approaches.
One non-surgical option that you may have come across in your research is a liquid nose job or liquid rhinoplasty. This procedure involves using injectable fillers, typically made of hyaluronic acid, to reshape and contour the nose. While this option can be effective in correcting minor asymmetries and smoothing out bumps, it is a temporary solution and may require repeated treatments over time to maintain the desired results.
Injection fillers are a safe and effective alternative to traditional rhinoplasty, which is a surgical procedure that involves permanently removing a dorsal hump.
In liquid rhinoplasty, the dermal fillers are injected under the skin of the nose to temporarily correct issues such as a dorsal hump, a drooping nasal tip, and asymmetry. The fillers used are typically hyaluronic acid-based and can be dissolved if the results are not satisfactory. The procedure is minimally invasive and has little to no downtime, with results lasting for six to 12 months. Dr. Rokhsar is the original pioneer behind the liquid rhinoplasty procedure and performed the procedure live on Good Morning America.

Dr. Rokhsar has extensive experience performing various cosmetic procedures on patients of different ethnicities, including non-invasive nose jobs.
When it comes to ethnic non-invasive nose jobs, it is important to consider the unique characteristics of each patient’s nose and facial features. Different ethnic groups have distinct nasal shapes and proportions, which require a customized approach to achieve a natural and harmonious result.
During a consultation, Dr. Rokhsar will evaluate your nose and discuss your goals and expectations. Based on this information, he will create a personalized treatment plan that takes into account your ethnicity and nasal features. Dr. Rokhsar is an expert in creating bridges for ethnic flat noses. He has done more ethnic surgical nose jobs than any other physician.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty can be an effective option for many Asian patients. The ideal candidates are typically healthy non-smokers, who are at least 16 years of age and have realistic expectations about the potential outcome of the procedure. Many Asian patients do not like the flat appearance of their nose and want to have a more refined or contoured nose. A refined nose can be created by Dr. Rokhsar using his advanced non-invasive nose job techniques.
One of the benefits of non-surgical rhinoplasty is that it can often be performed in less than 15 minutes by an experienced injector like Dr. Rokhsar, with minimal discomfort and downtime. The procedure involves injecting dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse), into specific areas of the nose to create a more symmetrical or proportionate appearance or to create a bridge.
It is also essential to choose an experienced and skilled injector for this procedure such as Dr. Rokhsar, the original inventor of the non-surgical nose job, especially for African American patients. African American noses have unique characteristics that require special attention and expertise to achieve natural-looking results. Many African American patients are interested in creating a bridge or a more defined nose bridge. The non-surgical nasal contouring is a perfect option to create a nose bridge for black noses.
One advantage of a non-invasive nose job is that it can be performed quickly in an office setting with no downtime. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. The procedure is also relatively painless, as a topical anesthetic or ice is applied to the treatment area to numb the skin. Most fillers already have numbing in them making the injection virtually painless.
Men’s non-surgical nose job is a cosmetic procedure that uses dermal fillers to reshape and contour the nose without invasive surgery. This procedure is ideal for men who desire to improve the appearance of their nose without the downtime and risks associated with traditional surgical rhinoplasty.
One of the main advantages of a non-surgical nose job is that it is a minimally invasive procedure, meaning there are no incisions or general anesthesia required. This makes it a safer and less painful option for men who want to enhance their facial features. Additionally, the results of a non-surgical nasal contouring are immediate, and there is no downtime needed for recovery. Men can return to work or their daily routine right after the procedure.
The healing process after a non-surgical rhinoplasty is generally quick, and patients can typically return to their normal activities immediately. The entire procedure usually takes less than 15 minutes, and patients can go home immediately after the treatment. Patients are asked not to wear glasses or sunglasses one week after the procedure and not to indulge in contact sports for one week.
Following the procedure, it is recommended to avoid applying any pressure to the nose and to refrain from wearing glasses or sunglasses for at least 24 hours. Additionally, it is advised to avoid any strenuous exercise or activities that may cause excessive sweating for the first 24 hours after the treatment.
Temporary swelling and bruising are common after the procedure, but these should subside within a few days. Applying cold compresses to the affected area can help reduce swelling and discomfort. Drinking plenty of water and getting sufficient rest is also essential for a speedy recovery.
One of the benefits of the non-surgical nose job is that it requires minimal downtime, and patients can typically return to work and normal activities the same day. While there is no recovery time in the traditional sense, it is essential to avoid pushing on, massaging, or applying pressure to your nose for at least one week following the procedure. Additionally, mild swelling, redness, or slight bruising may occur for up to two weeks after the procedure. However, these side effects are usually mild and can be easily concealed with makeup.
Rhinoplasty without surgery is generally considered safe and carries fewer risks than nose jobs done by a plastic surgeon. Non-surgical nose jobs can have side effects like temporary discomfort at the injection site, swelling, and irritation for a couple of days. Dr. Rokhsar takes precautions to minimize possible side effects during the procedure.

Dr. Rokhsar, a double board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and surgeon, invented the non-surgical nose job in NYC in 2002 and is considered one of the foremost experts in this procedure. As one of the most experienced doctors in liquid nose jobs, he is your best choice. His results are natural, compliment the patient’s face, and are done with great attention to detail as well as artistic talent.
Now a popular treatment among those wishing to refine their nasal structure without plastic surgery, the non-surgical nose job was invented by cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Rokhsar in 2002. From his offices in NYC and Long Island, Dr. Rokhsar was the first to write a scientific paper1 about non-surgical nasal contouring and has perfected his technique over the years. Dr. Rokhsar is proud to be chosen by his peers to New York Magazine’s 2022 Top Dermatologists list.
A non-surgical rhinoplasty, also known as a liquid rhinoplasty or nose filler, is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting fillers into the nose to alter its shape without surgery. This procedure is an alternative to traditional rhinoplasty, which involves surgery to change the appearance of the nose. Non-surgical rhinoplasty can create mild to moderate changes in the nose shape, such as smoothing out bumps, straightening the bridge, refining the tip, and reducing or eliminating asymmetries.
During a non-surgical rhinoplasty, tiny needles are used to inject dermal fillers into the nose. The fillers, usually hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyl appetite, temporarily change the shape of the nose and can last up to 6 months to 1 year. This procedure is safe, non-invasive, requires no anesthesia, and usually has minimal downtime.
It’s essential to note that non-surgical rhinoplasty is not suitable for all nose shapes and conditions. Traditional rhinoplasty is still the preferred option for more significant changes to the nose, such as correcting breathing problems or repairing a deviated septum. As the original inventor of the non-surgical nose job, Dr. Cameron Rokhsar, has performed more nose injections than any other doctor in the world. Dr. Rokhsar has also taught his non-surgical nose job techniques to many physicians around the world and the United States. We strongly advise you to consult with Dr. Rokhsar to determine if you’re a good candidate for a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure.
The procedure involves injecting a gel-like substance, typically hyaluronic acid, or calcium-based fillers into the desired area to smooth out wrinkles, enhance volume, or reshape the nose. The treatment is often performed to address a drooping nasal tip, a bump known as a dorsal hump of the nose, or to camouflage a nose bump or misshapen nose. Nasal asymmetries can also be corrected. A nasal bridge can be built for Asian and African American noses. The tip of the nose can be raised. Post-surgical rhinoplasty defects can be corrected. The procedure can be done in minutes with minimal recovery time, fewer risks, near-instant results, and at a fraction of the cost of surgical rhinoplasty. Tiny needles are used to inject the fillers into the nose to reshape it. The procedure can help improve the appearance of the nose by smoothing small bumps, improving nasal and facial contours, reshaping the nasal appearance, and making the tip more prominent. The procedure usually takes 15-20 minutes, and patients may experience swelling which subsides within a few days to one week.
The most commonly used fillers for non-surgical nose jobs are hyaluronic acid-based, which dissolve over time. The two most common filler families used for non-surgical rhinoplasty are Juvederm and Restylane and Vollure. Dr. Rokhsar also uses Radiesse in many instances. Patient safety and high anatomical knowledge are essential for this procedure. Dr. Rokhsar is an expert injector and trains other doctors on how to inject Botox, Juvederm, Voluma, Kybella, Radiesse, Restylane, and other fillers. Dr. Rokhsar is a professor of Dermatology and teaches the cosmetic dermatology clinic at Mount Sinai. As the original inventor of the non-surgical nose job, Dr. Cameron Rokhsar, has performed more injections than any other doctor.
When administered by a dermatologist, FDA-approved nose fillers are generally considered safe and can produce outstanding results. Radiesse is an FDA-approved filler made from a calcium-derived compound that Dr. Rokhsar uses for non-surgical rhinoplasty.
The cost of liquid rhinoplasty varies depending on your location, the complexity of the procedure, and the physician’s experience. Contact us for an exact quote. It’s about 15-25% of the cost of rhinoplasty.
After Radiesse injections, there’s going to be a little swelling, bruising, and redness. Therefore, Dr. Rokhsar recommends over-the-counter pain medication to ease the discomfort. Luckily, the benefits outweigh the risks and after just a few minutes, you’ll have a better nose!
After a non-surgical nose job, there are certain things you should avoid to ensure optimal results. First, for the first 2-3 days after the procedure, you should avoid manipulating the nose and engaging in vigorous activity. This is to prevent the filler from shifting or moving before it sets. You should also avoid wearing glasses/sunglasses or having facials for the next 2 weeks after the procedure as the filler sets into place. Dr. Rokhsar also recommends avoiding contact sports for one week. Working out in the gym is permitted as long as there is no contact with the nose.
It is also recommended to avoid taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication before the procedure as this can increase the risk of bleeding and bruising.
Wile non-surgical rhinoplasty can correct certain nose imperfections, it cannot correct a large bump or hump in the nose. If you are considering undergoing treatment via a non-surgical nose job, it is recommended to make an appointment with Dr. Rokhsar to discuss your options.
It varies between 6 months and 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and injection technique. The most commonly used filler for non-surgical rhinoplasty is hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm. Dr. Rokhsar also uses Radiesse commonly. The results of a non-surgical rhinoplasty may last up to 2 years. Thicker hyaluronic acid fillers can last for 1.5 years or more, but thinner fillers may last only 9-12 months. The longevity of results also depends on individual factors such as the amount of filler used and the injection technique.
To maintain the results of non-surgical rhinoplasty, follow-up injections may be required once the initial results wear off. Patients who are satisfied with the results of a non-surgical rhinoplasty may choose to make the look permanent by undergoing a surgical rhinoplasty later on.
