Non Surgical Nose Jobs? Alternative to Deviated Septum Surgery

Considering a surgery on your nose? Be it a deviated septum surgery, or rhinoplasty, there may be a solution to keep you from going under the knife. There are non-surgical nose job alternatives. These surgeries are a new and exciting alternative available to patients interested in improving the shape of their nose without undergoing invasive deviated septum surgery. The benefits of nose jobs without surgery are faster results, quicker healing time, and little or no pain.

Patients who are interested in nose surgery may be surprised to find out they are actually candidates for a non surgical nose job. This popular new treatment is an excellent alternative to the traditional rhinoplasty or deviate septum procedure.

A nose job without surgery involves using injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, Restylane®, or Radiesse® to shape and contour the nose. Unlike a deviated septum procedure, these fillers allow patients to obtain quick results with little or no healing time.

A nose job without surgery is an excellent option for patients who want a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure and who are looking for fast, satisfying results.

Most nose job patients visit a surgeon to get rid of bumps and bulges on their nose or to repair a deviated septum. When nasal imbalance is minor, a nose job without surgery can provide patients with outstanding results and an improved overall appearance.

Unfortunately, those with major nasal deformities, deviated septums, and those who are looking to reduce the size of their nose are not candidates for the 15 minute non-surgical nose job. For these patients, surgical intervention is necessary..

The 15 minute non-surgical nose job is relatively painless and can be completed in one short office visit. During the treatment, a surgeon will inject the facial filler into the desired areas of the nose to help camouflage abnormalities. Though some patients may be concerned that the nose will look larger after treatment, not to worry - the treatment simply smoothes out the nose so it appears as one straight line.

A nose job without surgery is an excellent and affordable option for patients who would like to achieve a more pleasing appearance without undergoing extensive rhinoplasty or deviated septum surgery

Hollywood and Deviated Septum Surgery

Hollywood is full of actors and actresses that have gone under the knife to have deviated septum surgery or some related nose surgery. It is almost as common to have a nose job as it is to have a physical. There are many that have done it for the sake of looks and there are those that have needed them because of health reasons. What ever the reason the jury is out on whether or not it has helped or hurt their career.

The list of Hollywood stars that have gone under the knife for one reason or another is obviously many. If one was trying to find a statistic of how many have had some surgery or another, the statistic that would stand out more is who hasn’t gone under the knife for deviated septum surgery and other surgeries, than those that have.

Some of the most notable actresses that have had deviated septum surgery include Jennifer Aniston, and Cameron Diaz. Again whether it was necessary or whether it affected their looks the jury is still out. Either way so far it doesn’t appear that their careers have suffered as a result.


The one actress whose career suffered as a result of nose surgery was Jennifer Grey. Many will remember her from her most notable movies being Dirty Dancing, and Red Dawn. After her role in the film Dirty Dancing, Grey decided to have a nose job to remove the bump from her nose.


It is true that the bridge of her nose, had a bump on it, and it was well noticed, but that nose was who she was, and it was a part of her. It was so much a part of her that even some friends didn’t really recognize her once she recovered from her surgery.





There are plenty enough pictures and “Access Hollywood” type interviews out there to see that the results of her surgery have almost literally changed her look to be another person all together


In an interview after her surgery she stated that the surgery on her nose was the “worst mistake she had ever made”. She stated that she didn’t look like the girl from dirty dancing, just someone who somewhat resembled that girl.


There are some more recent starlets that have received similar comments since going under the knife for deviate septum surgery and other operations. A phrase has come out nicknamed the "Jennifer Grey" syndrome, which has been attached to celebrities such as Ashlee Simpson and Ashley Tisdale from "High School Musical.
