The popularity and ever-evolving nature of injectables and filler have risen exponentially in recent years, and the "liquid rhinoplasty"—aka the nonsurgical nose job—is one of the most raptly searched procedures on the menu.
In all honestly, we will be the last source to encourage cosmetic or surgical procedures in the name of beauty. You do you. Choosing to forgo these types of treatments should be just as acceptable as opting to go under the needle or knife, and vice versa. That said, we do consider it our business and responsibility to inform and educate, and since the nonsurgical nose job has recently accrued spotlighted attention and has notable risk potential, a quick deep dive felt more than warranted. (Fun fact: "Nonsurgical nose jobs" is one of the most highly searched terms in the beauty encyclopedia that is Google at the moment.)
