Liquid Rhinoplasty Before and After Patient 3

Yes, and this patient is a good example of exactly that. She is a fair-skinned woman in her mid-30s from Orange County who came in with two goals. She wanted the bump on her bridge smoothed out so her profile looked straighter, and she wanted her tip lifted and more defined.

With fair skin, every contour on the nose is more visible. There is less soft tissue to mask irregularities, which means the bump on her bridge was something she noticed in every photo and every mirror. It also means the filler placement has to be precise because any unevenness will show. That is not a problem, but it is something I factor into my technique. I placed filler above and below the bump to create a straight bridge line, then added a small amount to the tip to give it more projection and definition.

In the before photos you can see the bump disrupting the bridge line in the profile view and the tip sitting lower than she wanted. In the after photos the bridge is straight, the bump is gone, and the tip has a lifted, more sculpted look that fits the proportions of her face. She told us she was thrilled with the result, and honestly this is the kind of case where liquid rhinoplasty delivers exactly what the patient had in mind.

One thing worth noting here: patients with thinner skin tend to see results that look very clean and defined because the filler contour shows through more readily. Patients with thicker skin can get great results too, but the changes tend to look softer and more subtle. I bring this up because managing expectations based on your actual skin type is part of the consultation. What works for one patient's anatomy does not always translate the same way to another.

The treatment took about 15 minutes. No surgery, no downtime, no recovery period.

Treatment performed me, Dr. Sid Mirrafati, M.D., Diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, at Mira Aesthetic Cosmetic Surgery Center in Costa Mesa, Orange County.
