Small differences in nasal structure are common and can develop due to genetics, ageing, or previous injury. With age, natural changes in bone structure and soft tissue support may also influence the shape and projection of the nose.
Dr Scott Allison takes a holistic approach to facial balance, assessing how the nose integrates with other features such as the chin, cheeks, and forehead. Any treatment planning is performed with the goal of supporting natural facial proportion rather than dramatic alteration, and individual results will vary.
Some non-surgical approaches for nasal concerns may involve prescription-only medicines or registered medical devices. In line with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) regulations, these are not advertised publicly and are only discussed privately during consultation.
Areas Commonly Reviewed During Consultation
Profile Irregularities
Where patients have concerns related to the bridge or tip of the nose, Dr Allison provides consultations to assess these features and may discuss non-surgical approaches that could assist in addressing areas of concern.
Nasal Tip Definition
Ageing and bone resorption can affect nasal tip projection.
Treatment plans may include conservative, non-surgical options aimed at supporting facial proportion and overall facial assessment outcomes.
Bridge Height and Shape
Variations in nasal bridge height and shape are common and may be discussed during a facial assessment consultation.
Dr Allison evaluates the nose in the context of overall facial proportion, with treatment planning informed by individual anatomy, background, and personal goals.
Post-Surgical Assessment
For patients who have undergone surgical rhinoplasty, minor irregularities can occasionally occur.
Where clinically appropriate, Dr Allison may discuss non-surgical options during consultation. Liaison with your existing surgeon may also be considered depending on individual circumstances.
