PROCEDURES / NON-SURGICAL / LIQUID RHINOPLASTY
LIQUID RHINOPLASTY
Liquid rhinoplasty, also known as a nonsurgical rhinoplasty, uses injectable filler to subtly refine the shape and contour of the nose without surgery or downtime. This minimally invasive procedure can smooth small irregularities, enhance symmetry, and create a more balanced facial profile, all while maintaining the nose's natural character.
DR. SCHULTZ'S APPROACH
Dr. Kelly Schultz performs liquid rhinoplasty with a focus on precision, safety, and artistry. She views the procedure as a way to refine harmony rather than alter identity, enhancing the face’s natural balance with soft, subtle improvements.
Each treatment is carefully customized to the patient’s anatomy and goals. Using small, precise filler placements, Dr. Schultz adjusts the nasal contour in a way that enhances the surrounding features while maintaining a natural, elegant appearance.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE
Ideal candidates for liquid rhinoplasty are individuals who:
-
Have minor irregularities or contour depressions along the bridge or tip of the nose
-
Desire improved symmetry or smoothness without undergoing surgery
-
Wish to camouflage a dorsal hump or refine the nasal tip for a more balanced profile
-
Prefer a nonsurgical, reversible option with minimal downtime
Liquid rhinoplasty is best suited for reshaping and smoothing rather than reducing nasal size. Patients should have realistic expectations and understand that results, while highly refined, are temporary and technique-dependent.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The procedure is performed in-office and typically takes 20–30 minutes. After a brief consultation and discussion of goals, a numbing cream is applied for comfort. Using a fine cannula or needle, Dr. Schultz carefully injects small amounts of hyaluronic acid filler into precise areas of the nose to smooth irregularities, lift the tip, or enhance definition.
Results are visible immediately. Mild redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves within 24–48 hours. Most patients return to normal activities the same day, with little to no downtime.
TYPES OF ENHANCEMENTS POSSIBLE
-
Bridge smoothing: Softening the appearance of a small dorsal hump.
-
Tip definition: Gently refining or lifting the nasal tip for improved balance.
-
Symmetry correction: Addressing subtle asymmetry after trauma or prior surgery.
-
Contour refinement: Creating smooth transitions between the forehead, nose, and upper lip for a cohesive profile.
SAFETY AND LONGEVITY
Dr. Schultz prioritizes patient safety above all else. The nasal region has a complex vascular anatomy, and safe injection technique is essential. She uses conservative filler volumes, slow injection methods, and advanced anatomical knowledge to ensure safety and predictability.
Hyaluronic acid fillers used for liquid rhinoplasty are reversible and temporary, lasting approximately 12–18 months depending on the filler type and individual metabolism. Maintenance treatments can be performed to preserve results over time.
RECOVERY AND HEALING
Patients should avoid pressing on the nose, wearing glasses for prolonged periods, or engaging in strenuous activity for several days after treatment.
DAYS 0-2
Mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur and typically subsides within one to two days.
DAYS 2-5
Filler settles and refines into its final shape.
WEEKS 1-2
Results appear smooth, natural, and well integrated with the facial profile.
BEGIN YOUR JOURNEY
Liquid rhinoplasty offers immediate, natural enhancement with minimal downtime. For patients seeking subtle refinement rather than surgical change, it provides a safe, elegant way to restore balance and harmony to the face.
Dr. Schultz combines anatomical expertise with artistic precision to achieve beautifully natural outcomes. During consultation, she carefully evaluates each patient’s features, goals, and proportions to create a treatment plan that enhances confidence while preserving individuality.
