Non-surgical rhinoplasty and liquid rhinoplasty in Potts Point, Sydney. Reshaping the nose without going under the knife.
Thousands of Sydney patients search for nose reshaping each month. Cleon by Dr Brandon offers a non-surgical approach for patients who want to refine their nose profile without surgery.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty involves a tailored treatment approach aimed at improving balance, contour, and profile shape without surgery. Treatment planning is highly individualised and based on facial anatomy, proportions, skin quality, and what is clinically appropriate and achievable for the individual.
What we can address: Profile irregularities, asymmetry, contour balance, and the relationship of the nose to surrounding facial features.
What we cannot do: Not all nose concerns are suitable for non-surgical treatment. Structural, functional, or more significant anatomical concerns may require surgical assessment or referral..
Treatment planning. Treatment suitability, limitations, risks, and expected outcomes are discussed during consultation based on individual anatomy and goals.
How long results last: Longevity varies between individuals and depends on the treatment performed, anatomy, metabolism, and lifestyle factors.
Considering surgical and non-surgical options: Some patients explore both surgical and non-surgical approaches. Assessment focuses on determining the most appropriate pathway for the individual concern and desired outcome.
Consultation focuses on identifying the underlying cause of the concern and discussing the most appropriate treatment approach for the individual.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty at Cleon by Dr Brandon is preceded by a thorough consultation. Dr Brandon examines the nose in the context of the whole face. He does not proceed on every patient who asks – candidacy is assessed clinically and realistic expectations are established before anything is agreed.
Clinically appropriate treatment to reshape and refine the nose profile. Approach is specific to your anatomy – not a standard technique applied to every nose.
Specific approaches for dorsal humps, tip projection, and profile asymmetry. Each concern is assessed individually in the context of the whole face.
Not every patient is a suitable candidate. Dr Brandon tells you plainly whether non-surgical rhinoplasty will help your specific concern – and refers on when appropriate.
Minor swelling and redness at treatment points. Nose may appear slightly swollen – expected and temporary.

Avoid pressure on the nose, intense heat, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours after treatment.

| Factor | Non-surgical | Surgical rhinoplasty | Key consideration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Permanence | Temporary (12–18 months) | Permanent | Non-surgical suits patients not ready to commit permanently |
| Recovery | No meaningful downtime | 4–8 weeks | Non-surgical allows a return to normal same day |
| Can it reduce nose size? | No – cannot remove volume | Yes | If reducing size is the goal, surgery is the honest path |
| Reversibility | Can be dissolved if needed | Cannot be undone | Non-surgical has a safety net; surgical does not |
| Scope | Profile, asymmetry, dorsal hump | Structure, size, septum | Complex concerns need surgical assessment |
FREQUENTLY ASKED
No. Most patients arrive with an outcome in mind. Dr Brandon determines whether non-surgical rhinoplasty will achieve it – and refers on when surgery would serve you better.
No. The approach adds structure – it cannot remove volume. If reducing the size of the nose is the goal, surgery is the honest path.
Typically 12–18 months. Duration depends on the individual and the area treated.
Yes. The treatment can be dissolved if the outcome is not what was intended.
In many cases, yes – by adding structure above and below the hump to visually smooth the profile. The consultation determines what is achievable for your specific anatomy.
Most patients describe mild, brief discomfort. Local anaesthetic cream is applied prior to treatment.
'Liquid rhinoplasty' is a common name for non-surgical rhinoplasty. Same procedure, different term.
Possibly. Prior surgical rhinoplasty changes the anatomy and must be assessed carefully in person. Dr Brandon assesses this in the consultation.
The treatment can be dissolved if required. This is one of the key advantages of the non-surgical approach over surgery.
Minimal. Minor swelling and redness for 24–48 hours. Normal activities the same day.
Suitability is assessed in consultation. Anatomy, concerns, and realistic expectations are all considered before anything is recommended.
Yes. Cleon by Dr Brandon offers non-surgical rhinoplasty at our Potts Point clinic. Online consultations available as a first step.
A nose job (rhinoplasty) is surgical – permanent, requires recovery, and can change structure and size. Non-surgical rhinoplasty is temporary, non-invasive, and adds refinement rather than structural change.
Pricing is not advertised in advance under Australian regulations. Discussed in the consultation after candidacy is established.
Often, yes – subtle asymmetry can be improved. Significant deviation is better addressed surgically. Assessment in person determines what is achievable.
