Non-Surgical Nose Thread Lift: An Advanced Medical Procedure for Nose Augmentation

Just less than 5 years ago, when people talk about 'nose job', they probably meant the traditional rhinoplasty where the nose is corrected and reconstructed via a surgical treatment. It took a lot of courage and determination to overcome the psychological barrier to undergo a rhinoplasty. Reason was because it would be considered taking considerable risk and be subjected to associated surgical risks. The result – good or bad – is permanent.

Medical technology has advanced so much that nose augmentation is no longer inextricably linked to rhinoplasty surgery. Fast forward to current day, nose augmentation can now be done conveniently at a doctor’s office in under an hour – hence many people call it ‘lunchtime nose job’.

What Exactly is the Perfect Nose?

We are generally drawn to facial features that are sharp and defined, including the nose. As Asians generally have flat, button noses, having ill-defined noses make many Asians unattractive.

So what exactly is the ‘perfect nose’? According to Dr. Siew Tuck Wah, Medical Director of Radium Medical Aesthetics, he said: “There is no specific definition for the perfect nose. As long as your nose It blends in well with your other facial features, you should be satisfied with it.”

“However, based on my years of experience in augmenting the nose, I have devised a certain proportion that best represent the aesthetic ideal of a nose.”, he added. For example, the ratio of the length of the nose and the nasal tip projection (distance between the nose tip and the base of the facial plane) should be approximately 1:0.67.

The rotation of the nose tip also an important factor for an ideal nose. The angle between the base of the nose and tip should be about 95-100 degrees in women and 90-95 degrees in men. 

People can opt for a non-surgical nose thread lift which can be conveniently done in under an hour.

What Is a Non-Surgical Nose Thread Lift?

Bio-compatible, absorbable sutures made of polydioxanone (PDO) are place in the nasal bridge and in the septum to form a scaffold to lift and project the nose. These special threads are lined with anchors (normally known as cogs) to give a lifting effect.

In addition, the threads also kick start cellular regeneration by stimulating the treated areas to produce collagen.

Are The PDO Nose Threads Permanently in my Nose?

No, they do not stay in your nose forever. PDO threads will stay in the nose for about 6 to 8 months after the treatment. After the threads have dissolved, the nose will still be able to stay in its lifted shape for another 12 months.

If you undergo non-surgical nose thread lift treatment regularly, you can expect some permanent lifting. Results can be longer-lasting with the frequent stimulation of new collagen and connective tissue in the nose.

Am I Suitable to Undergo Non-Surgical Nose Thread Lift? 

This is a non-surgical procedure so you are not exposed to any surgical risks. It is suitable for most people who want to seek an effective and safe option to augment the nose.

This treatment is also great for people who are not keen to undergo a permanent augmentation of the nose. Taking less than an hour, it offers convenience and minimal downtime to the patient.
