Refine your nose shape — without surgery.
Liquid rhinoplasty, also known as a non-surgical nose job, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses injectable fillers to subtly reshape and refine the nose. It’s an excellent option for patients who want to improve nasal contour, balance facial proportions, or “test drive” potential changes before committing to surgical rhinoplasty.
How It Works
Using hyaluronic acid (HA)–based fillers from the Allergan and Galderma product lines, Dr. Morrin can:
- Smooth small bumps or irregularities along the nasal bridge
- Refine the nasal tip
- Improve symmetry
- Create a straighter nasal profile
- Enhance the transition between the nose and forehead
The procedure cannot make the nose smaller or address breathing issues, but it can create the illusion of a straighter, more proportionate nose in just minutes.
Benefits of Liquid Rhinoplasty
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive
- Immediate results with no downtime
- Adjustable and reversible (HA fillers can be dissolved)
- Ideal for patients not ready for surgery
- Can help visualize possible surgical results
What to Expect
Liquid rhinoplasty is performed in-office and typically takes 20–30 minutes. A topical anesthetic is applied for comfort, and the filler is placed using precise microinjections. You’ll see your new nasal shape instantly, though mild swelling or tenderness may last a day or two
How Long Do Results Last?
Results generally last 12–18 months, depending on the filler used and your body’s metabolism. Touch-up treatments can maintain your results over time.

As a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon who also performs surgical rhinoplasty, Dr. Morrin brings a deep understanding of nasal anatomy, balance, and proportion to every liquid rhinoplasty. Her expertise ensures that non-surgical enhancements are safe, precise, and naturally integrated with the rest of your facial features.
FAQ
Can liquid rhinoplasty fix breathing problems?
No. This treatment is purely cosmetic. Functional breathing issues require surgical correction, such as septoplasty or turbinate reduction.
Is liquid rhinoplasty permanent?
No. HA fillers gradually break down over time, making this a temporary, reversible option.
Can liquid rhinoplasty make my nose smaller?
It cannot reduce size, but strategic filler placement can create the illusion of a smaller, more balanced nose.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Some patients pair liquid rhinoplasty with chin augmentation (filler or surgical) for optimal profile balancing, or with skin resurfacing for overall facial rejuvenation.
