Nose filler is also known as ‘nose reshaping’, ‘non-surgical rhinoplasty”, ‘non-surgical nose job’, and ‘liquid nose job’.
Following non-surgical rhinoplasty (nose filler), it’s normal to experience swelling. Here’s a breakdown of the stages of nose filler swelling you can expect:
Immediately after your non-surgical rhinoplasty:
- Slight redness and tenderness around the injection sites.
- Minimal swelling, localised to the treated areas. This is usually barely noticeable, but may appear slightly uneven.
Day 1:
- Swelling reaches its peak within 24 hours. Your nose may look fuller and puffy.
- This is temporary and doesn’t reflect the final result.
- You may notice mild discomfort in your nose.
Days 2-3:
- Swelling subsides, becoming less noticeable each day.
- Your nose will still look somewhat puffy, but the shape will become more defined.
Days 4-5:
- Swelling should be mostly resolved.
- Any slight persistent swelling will reduce over the next week, revealing your final result.
Tips to reduce swelling after non-surgical rhinoplasty
- Everyone heals differently, so your own experience may vary.
- If you experience significant swelling, pain, redness, or bruising, immediately contact your clinic.
- Avoid activities that worsen swelling for 24 hours. This includes alcohol, strenuous activities, excessive heat, and sun exposure.
- Minimise swelling by gently applying wrapped cold pack to your nose. Use it intermittently for a few hours after your treatment.
