What is Non-Surgical Asian Rhinoplasty?
In an Asian face, no feature commands more attention than the nose. It takes center stage and is often the first facial feature other people notice. There are some significant differences between the Asian nose and those of their Caucasian counterparts: height of the bridge, width of the tip and the nostrils among them. A lot of Asian noses require greater height and projection, as well as refinement of the tip and nostrils while Caucasian noses quite often require some form of reduction.
Of course, there are many cultural and personal aesthetic preferences and subtle differences that should also be taken into account. Your nose is unique to you, and we want to ensure your rhinoplasty will be too. We don’t look to change the features that make your face unique, but instead seek to leave you with natural looking results, so you will still look like yourself, but in a more aesthetically pleasing way.
Benefits of Non-Surgical Asian Rhinoplasty
Giving Better Definition to the Tip of the Nose
Compared to other ethnic groups, the tip of the Asian nose tolerates slightly less definition and projection and is found to be rounder.
Changing the size and definition of the nose tip isn’t easy, but it can be done in many cases. Bringing more definition to the tip requires careful filler injections so that there is no overall increase in size. Hyaluronic acid injections can also help to reduce the size of the tip, making it appear less rounded and more square.
Why is Non-Surgical Asian Rhinoplasty a Popular Choice?
- Easy and quick. On average the procedure takes less than 10 minutes
- The procedure is relatively painless
- Compared to rhinoplasty plastic surgery, the procedure is affordable
- You will see the results immediately afterwards
- More or less filler can be injected into certain areas to customize the appearance of the nose
How is the Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Procedure Performed?
- Nose shape is designed and marked on the nose based on your personal requirements
- A local anesthetic is injected in the nose so that the filler injection is painless.
- The filler is injected carefully into the specific areas of the nose
- Common fillers used include Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Teosyal® products
- The filler is then molded to sculpt the desired nose shape
- This whole procedure takes 10 minutes
Treating the Concerns of Asian Patients with Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical Asian Rhinoplasty is unique and requires not only specialized expertise but also a keen eye for Asian beauty. The ideal nose is not just tall and projected but should also look natural and balanced regardless of the angle it is viewed from. Some of the distinct characteristics of Asian noses are easy to see while others extend deep below the skin’s surface. The Asian nasal framework and nasal bones typically differ from other ethnicities.
A low nasal bridge places more emphasis and brings attention to the nasal tip, giving it the appearance that it is bigger than it truly is. If the bridge is made higher and defined better, the tip is no longer the major visible part of the nose. A well-defined bridge brings the tip into proportion with the rest of the nose, diminishing its appearance so that it no longer attracts as much attention. A more defined bridge also gives the nose a stronger appearance and in turn makes the face more proportional and symmetric.

Non-Surgical Asian Rhinoplasty FAQ
We’ve compiled a list of some of the most common questions asked during our initial consultation
The most common complications include localized injection-related bruising, needle marks, and/or swelling. This typically can last up to a week but can be disguised with makeup. Allergic reactions to the fillers also happen, but they are very rare.
There are some small capillaries located under the skin that are not visible to the naked eye. During the injection process, one of these capillaries can be injured which may lead to bruising.
Hyaluronic acid nose fillers typically last between 6 – 9 months although this can vary significantly depending on the individual and how quickly their body metabolizes the filler.
