A Way to Get Permanent Results
One of the primary benefits of surgical rhinoplasty is the duration of the results. Plastic surgery, after all, is a permanent procedure. However, this does not mean that the results will last forever. Even after plastic surgery, your body continues to change, affected by genetics, age, environment, activities, and so on. But there is no denying that for many patients the long-term results are particularly appealing. That’s one of the reasons why Dr. Rivkin is pleased to provide patients with access to a permanent but non surgical alternative to rhinoplasty.
Most patients want a Non Surgical Nose Job for one of two reasons: they either want great rhinoplasty results without surgery or they want temporary rhinoplasty results. The group of patients who want to avoid surgery altogether, whether due to concern about risk, downtime, expense or pain, now have a long lasting, non surgical alternative. The second group of patients look at Non Surgical Rhinoplasty as a kind of nose job test drive. If they are pleased with the results of the procedure, they now have the option of undergoing Permanent Non Surgical Rhinoplasty and their results will last for many years.Why Not Just Get Surgery?
When patients want permanent Non Surgical Nose Job results, they will often elect to undergo rhinoplasty surgery. However, there are many reasons why a patient would be hesitant or resistant to plastic surgery. Rhinoplasty surgery, in particular, is widely noted for having a particularly long and painful recovery period. Often, patients will be required to wear a cast or bandage for the first several days after surgery in order to protect the nose. Initial swelling and bruising may last weeks, and residual swelling could last up to twelve months. That extended period of swelling is important because it prevents patients from accurately perceiving their final results.
In these cases, patients may be waiting up to a year in order to see results that they are unhappy with. In other cases, patients are simply uninterested in surgery or unable to stomach the notion of “going under the knife.” After all, getting ready for surgery is a long process—there are consultations with surgeons, and then the surgery itself can take a matter of hours. Many patients are simply too busy to consider such an undertaking; those busy patients are even less likely to find time to stay away from work for several weeks while the initial recovery stage is completed. It’s easy to see that there are many reasons why one would want to avoid surgery.
A Permanent Non Surgical Nose Job Solution
Those patients who would like a permanent rhinoplasty now have a non surgical solution. Every Non Surgical Rhinoplasty procedure involves the injection of a dermal filler in order to add volume or change the shape of the nose. When a patient opts for a Permanent Non Surgical Nose Job, Dr. Rivkin uses a dermal filler known as Bellafill (formerly known as Artefill). Bellafill is used when cosmetic surgeons want to achieve long-lasting effects. Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Restylane or Voluma, Bellafill is designed to resist being absorbed over time by your body. For this reason, results have been noted to last ten years and more.
For Non Surgical Nose Job patients, this makes Bellafill a solution for effectively permanent Non Surgical Rhinoplasty. Once the filler is injected, Dr. Rivkin will “mold” the filler into the desired final shape. Patients will be able to see the results immediately, and there is no recovery time associated with a Non Surgical Nose Job. In other words, patients will be able to enjoy their results immediately, though they may want to avoid strenuous or physical activity for a day while the filler “sets.”
Get Your Nose Job How You Want to Get it
Dr. Rivkin is happy to provide patients throughout Los Angeles, California, and beyond with an alternative to traditional permanent rhinoplasty. For many years, the patients who wanted permanent results had only one real option. Today, however, patients have a non surgical way to get results—this means that many more people are able to get the nose they want. Not only that, but patients who receive a Bellafill/Artefill Nose Job will be able to see their results immediately and will not have to undergo a recovery period.
