TREATMENT

Medical Rhinoplasty

As the focal point of the face, the nose can be a source of real self-consciousness for some people. For many, cosmetic surgery is not a desirable solution, which is why medical rhinoplasty is the perfect alternative. 

What is medical rhinoplasty?

Medical rhinoplasty (also known as “non-surgical rhinoplasty” or “rhinomodeling”) is a technique for reshaping the nose using hyaluronic acid injections. It allows the shape of the nose to be reshaped without surgery, general anesthesia, or downtime.

At My Laser Maroc, we offer medical rhinoplasty at our centers in Casablanca and Tangier. The practitioner uses a fine needle or cannula to inject cross-linked hyaluronic acid products to correct:

  • A bump on the bridge of the nose (by filling in the hollows around it).
  • A downward-pointing arrow (pointing upward).
  • Asymmetry of the nose.
  • A crooked nose or one with a scar.
  • A nose that is too flat (dorsal augmentation).

It’s an ideal option for patients who want to try out a change before undergoing surgery, or correct minor imperfections without going under the knife.

What to Expect During a Medical Rhinoplasty Procedure

A medical rhinoplasty procedure lasts between 30 and 45 minutes:

  1. Initial consultation (free of charge): morphological analysis of the nose, discussion of expectations, simulation of the results, assessment of contraindications.
  2. Cleaning and disinfecting the treatment area.
  3. Apply a soothing cream to improve comfort.
  4. Precise injections of cross-linked hyaluronic acid at various points on the nose according to the established plan (using a cannula or fine needle).
  5. Sculpting massage to refine the results.
  6. Immediate results, before-and-after photos.

Side effects are minor: you may experience slight redness or bruising, which will fade within 3 to 7 days. Avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours, do not apply strong pressure to the nose, and avoid facial massages for 2 weeks.

Results and duration of medical rhinoplasty

Results of medical rhinoplasty:

  • Immediate results: the nose takes on its new shape as soon as you leave the office.
  • Natural-looking: with an experienced practitioner, there’s no “plastic surgery” look.
  • Lasting: 12 to 18 months, depending on the product used and the area treated.
  • Reversible: If you are dissatisfied with the results, the hyaluronic acid can be dissolved by injecting hyaluronidase (results appear within 24–48 hours).

To maintain the results, a touch-up every 12 to 18 months is recommended, often using a lighter volume (maintenance).

Difference from surgical rhinoplasty

La rhinoplastie chirurgicale permet un remodelage profond, une réduction de taille, une correction de la cloison. Nécessite une anesthésie générale, 1-2 semaines d’arrêt, coûte 20 000+ MAD. La rhinoplastie médicale est une alternative non invasive qui ajoute du volume pour corriger les imperfections. Elle ne peut pas réduire un nez : pour cela, seule la chirurgie classique est indiquée.

Rhinoplastie médicale vs chirurgicale

La rhinoplastie médicale (sans bistouri) est une alternative non chirurgicale à la rhinoplastie classique. Au lieu d’opérer en bloc opératoire, nos médecins utilisent de l’acide hyaluronique densifié pour remodeler le nez en 15 à 30 minutes.

  • Chirurgicale : permanente, correction osseuse, anesthésie générale, 1 semaine d’éviction, cicatrices, 30 000-60 000 MAD
  • Médicale : réversible, pas d’éviction, 3 000-5 000 MAD, durée 9-15 mois

Corrections possibles en rhinoplastie médicale

  • Bosse nasale : camouflage par injection de part et d’autre
  • Pointe tombante : remontée via injection à la base du columelle
  • Asymétrie modérée : rééquilibrage des volumes
  • Nez aplati : projection de l’arête (très demandée au Maroc)
  • Post-chirurgie : retouches des irrégularités

Limites de la rhinoplastie médicale

Attentes réalistes : ne peut PAS réduire la taille du nez, corriger des déviations osseuses importantes, traiter les problèmes respiratoires, diminuer la largeur des narines. Dans ces cas, la chirurgie reste nécessaire.

Side Effects and Safety

Medical rhinoplasty is very safe when performed by an experienced practitioner trained in the vascular anatomy of the nose. Common side effects are mild and temporary:

  • Redness and swelling at the injection site (24–48 hours).
  • Small bruise (5 to 7 days).
  • Sensitivity to touch.

Serious complications (skin necrosis due to vascular compression, embolism) are extremely rare but require a practitioner trained in safety techniques: slow injection, use of a cannula rather than a needle for high-risk areas, systematic aspiration testing, and knowledge of vascular landmarks. At My Laser, all injections adhere to these protocols.

Contraindications

Medical rhinoplasty is contraindicated in the following situations:

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
  • Known allergy to hyaluronic acid or lidocaine.
  • Active infection of the skin on the nose or surrounding areas (inflammatory acne, herpes).
  • History of recent nasal surgery (wait at least 6 months).
  • Anterior rhinoplasty with insertion of a silicone implant.
  • Severe, uncontrolled bleeding disorders.
  • Active autoimmune disease.

Cost of medical rhinoplasty in Morocco

La rhinoplastie médicale chez My Laser Maroc se base sur les tarifs de l’acide hyaluronique : à partir de 2 500 MAD la seringue (marques Juvéderm Voluma, Restylane Lyft, Belotero Volume : produits CE médicaux).

The final price of a session depends on:

  • The number of syringes (1 syringe for minor corrections, 1.5 to 2 for complete corrections).
  • Complexity (single bump, tip + bump, asymmetry, projection).
  • The product used.

The final price is determined during the complimentary pre-treatment consultation. See our hyaluronic acid pricing.
