Nose Job in 20 minutes and No Surgery! Liquid Rhinoplasty with Dr. Alexander Rivkin

November 22, 2016

When I first heard about the latest non-surgical “Liquid Rhinoplasty” craze, I thought, ok this sounds cool but I don’t have the right kind of messed up nose for this…and could this really work…and do I need it? (yes!) and WHAT IS THE DEAL!

Then these liquid nose jobs, as in filler only, no downtime, less than 20 minutes and boom, you are done – started littering my Instagram feed. I was hooked. And just I was seeing them everywhere, the calls started to come in – where, who and when can I book?

Of course I immediately went to the master in the field, make that, the pioneer – Dr. Alexander Rivkin. To keep it simple, Dr. Rivkin is THE ONE to have brought this into light. He is the world renowned authority and master teacher of it – so of course, I went straight to his offices to discuss the possibility of doing it on me.

I have always had a bump on my noseIt never really bothers me too much but it was for certain an issue during my acting days. From certain angels I look very harsh and masculine and casting directors have told me many times that if I wanted a career I need to do my nose. I never did. I couldn’t bring myself to do it. And now, with age, it’s starting to droop and getting even sharper and less feminine. This procedure sounded like the perfect way to see what I could look like with a straight nose.

So, before I could send anyone for this procedure, like always, I had to be my own guinea pig.

The great news was I had the perfect nose for this. Notice les bump!

Here I am with Dr. Rivkin working his magic with filler that will last up to a year. Then if you LOVE it you can go with something permanent like Artefill ( YES YES YES!!!).

*AND YOU KNOW I HATE TO POST PHOTOS OF MYSELF SO PLEASE ENJOY I AM ONLY DOING THIS ONCE, OR, IF SOMEONE GIVES ME A BOOB JOB. (And you think I’m kidding but I’m not).

And now – the before and after. It is kind of INSANE!!!!

screen-shot-2016-11-10-at-9-27-45-pmscreen-shot-2016-11-10-at-9-11-07-pm

I am 100% freaking out about how amazing this is. I am just bummed I didn’t use permanent filler but I will next time. For under $1000 and zero surgery this is a NO BRAINER for anyone wanting to tweak something about their nose that bothers them. Even from the front it appears to have some more definition and narrowing.

If you want this you MUST SEE Dr. Rivkin. Hands down! For more of his genius work check this gallery out.
