The temporary non-surgical nose job uses dermal fillers that dissipate over time. Hyaluronic acid fillers can reshape the nose, but the effects will slowly go away over several months. When you want permanent nose reshaping without surgery, RIVKIN Aesthetics offers the permanent non-surgical nose job at our facility in Los Angeles, CA.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty has been perfected over the last decade with the use of dermal fillers. Dr. Rivkin is one of the pioneers in this procedure, and he also perfected the permanent variation of the non-surgical nose job. In our patients who have had a temporary, non-surgical nose reshaping and want to permanently achieve the same look, we can use lasting fillers that will offer a permanent change to the nose shape. We use Bellafill® injections to perform a permanent non-surgical nose job for lasting results.
Bellafill Nose Reshaping Injections
The permanent non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure is completed over a series of quick Bellafill nose reshaping injections. Bellafill, previously called Artefill, is an FDA-approved filler that contains bovine collagen and PMMA microspheres for lasting volume under the skin. The microspheres and collagen work together to create a scaffolding under the skin to allow your own collagen to form for permanent results. The change is made gradually, with injections performed every six weeks. Patients can require 3-5 treatments to achieve the desired nose shape, but each procedure only takes a few minutes to perform.
The permanent non-surgical nose job does require multiple appointments over a few months, but there is no downtime or recovery needed for your treatments. The results will last and give you the nose shape you want without the risks of plastic surgery. This is a wonderful option for our patients that love their non-surgical nose reshaping and want a permanent version.
If you want to explore a permanent solution for changing your nose shape without surgery, come see us at RIVKIN Aesthetics. We offer both temporary and permanent non-surgical rhinoplasty at our clinic near Santa Monica in Los Angeles. Contact our office today to schedule your appointment.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Bellafill is a filler that works well and lasts a long time. It has been approved by the FDA since 2006. Bellafill is a bit different from other fillers because it relies on your body's response to stimulate tissue growth. It usually takes several sessions to achieve the desired effect. Most fillers work by sitting under the skin, but Bellafill stimulates your own tissue to grow. On average, people need 2 to 3 sessions to see the final result. These sessions are spaced around 6 months apart to allow your tissue to grow. After the first session, you might not notice much change, but it improves with subsequent sessions. Just be patient, and you will see the results.

In general, it's best to avoid surgically removing Artefill/Bellafill if possible. The process of cutting it out can be complex and may result in scars. If you're experiencing bumps or contour irregularities on your nose, I would recommend considering steroid injections and/or filler injections around the affected area to help conceal it. I have successfully addressed similar issues in the past, and the results have been excellent.

We have been using Bellafill for more than 15 years and have never encountered any serious side effects. As with any injectable, there is a possibility of bruising, and mild swelling may occur for a day or so. Bellafill provides long-lasting results, so it's important to choose an experienced and conservative practitioner when considering this treatment. The desired outcome is typically achieved through 2 to 3 sessions spaced approximately 6 months apart. When injected correctly, Bellafill feels soft and looks natural. Some of our patients choose to try temporary fillers like Voluma first to see if they like the results before switching to Bellafill. Voluma can be easily reversed and lasts for about a year and a half.
