Ever feel like your nose doesn’t quite match the rest of your face? You’re not alone—many individuals find themselves fixated on aspects of their nose they’d love to improve.
So, which nose-enhancing treatment is suited for your comfort level and desired outcome?
Read on to discover the surgical and non-surgical procedures we offer—and how they can help you achieve a more harmonious facial profile.
Choosing a nose enhancement procedure is personal. It depends on your aesthetic goals, comfort with downtime, and how permanent you want the results.
Here’s a quick look at our three main offerings, Rhinoplasty, Thread Lift, and Nose Fillers, to help you decide which option aligns with your lifestyle and preferences.
Now that you’ve seen our rhinoplasty techniques, let’s explore the two main surgical approaches, open vs closed, to help you decide which might be right for you.
Incisions: Inside the nose only (no visible external scars).
Access & Corrections:
Incisions: External incision on the columella, plus internal incisions.
Scar Visibility: A small, visible scar that usually heals well within 2–4 weeks.
Access & Corrections:A nose thread lift is a minimally invasive way to sculpt and elevate the bridge or tip of your nose with no surgical incisions needed. Dissolvable threads are carefully placed under the skin to provide structure and lift, giving you a more defined profile in just one session.
A nose dermal filler procedure, often called “liquid rhinoplasty”, uses injectable fillers to subtly reshape the nose without surgery. By adding volume in key areas, you can smooth out bumps, lift the bridge, or refine the tip, all with minimal downtime.
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose by directly adjusting its underlying structure, offering more precise and potentially long-lasting changes. In contrast, fillers and fat grafting involve adding volume to create shape. Fillers are non-permanent and can give you a feel for what changes might look like before committing to surgery. Discuss your goals with a plastic surgeon to decide which approach suits you best.
Simply reach out to schedule a consultation with Dr Wan. They’ll take the time to understand your aesthetic goals, walk you through each treatment choice, and guide you toward the approach that feels most comfortable and aligned with your vision.
Most patients experience only mild discomfort. For rhinoplasty, general anaesthesia is used, while thread lifts and fillers typically involve local numbing. We prioritise your comfort at every step.
