Recovering from a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty is remarkably swift and straightforward, with most patients able to resume their normal activities almost immediately after the procedure.

The procedure is relatively quick, typically taking about 15 to 30 minutes to complete. It's often referred to as a "lunchtime nose job" due to its speedy process and minimal downtime.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to reduce any pain associated with the injections.
The longevity of the results varies depending on the type of filler used but generally lasts between 6 to 18 months. The body gradually absorbs the filler, so touch-ups are required to maintain the desired effect.
