Nasal Tip Lift (Drooping Tip Correction) with Botulinum Toxin
A Nasal Tip Lift targets the depressor septi nasi muscle, which pulls the nose tip downward when smiling. Botulinum toxin relaxes this muscle, creating a subtle lift for a more balanced profile. It’s a quick, non-surgical option for correcting a drooping nasal tip. Results typically last 3–4 months.

Some individuals experience a drooping nasal tip when smiling or speaking, which can create the appearance of a longer or downward-turned nose. This effect is caused by the overactivity of the Depressor Septi Nasi muscle, which pulls the nasal tip downward when activated. For those looking to achieve a subtler, more lifted nasal tip without surgery, botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox®) offers an effective, non-surgical solution.
At Haus of Ästhetik, we use precise botulinum toxin injections to relax the Depressor Septi Nasi muscle, allowing the nasal tip to remain naturally elevated during facial expressions. This simple yet effective treatment can enhance nasal proportions, improve facial balance, and create a refined, lifted nose tip without the need for rhinoplasty.


How Does the Treatment Work?
The Depressor Septi Nasi muscle runs from the upper lip to the base of the nose and is responsible for pulling the nasal tip downward when activated. By strategically injecting botulinum toxin into this muscle, we can reduce its pull on the nasal tip, allowing the nose to maintain a more elevated position, even during facial expressions.
Benefits of Targeting the Depressor Septi Nasi Muscle
• Lifts the nasal tip subtly, preventing downward movement when smiling.
• Improves nasal proportions for a more balanced facial profile.
• Enhances facial harmony by creating a refined, slightly lifted nose tip.
• Non-surgical alternative for those wanting minor nasal refinements without rhinoplasty.

What Does the Procedure Involve?
• Small, precise botulinum toxin injections are placed into the Depressor Septi Nasi muscle just below the nose.
• The procedure takes approximately 5–10 minutes, with no required downtime.
• The treatment involves minimal discomfort, as ultra-fine needles are used.
• No anaesthesia is required, and normal activities can be resumed immediately.

Who is Suitable for This Treatment?
This treatment is ideal for individuals who:
• Experience a noticeable downward pull of the nasal tip when smiling or speaking.
• Want a subtle, lifted nasal tip without the need for surgery.
• Prefer a non-permanent, adjustable enhancement before considering surgical rhinoplasty.
• Are looking for a minimally invasive way to refine nasal proportions.
During your consultation, our expert practitioners will assess your nasal structure, muscle movement, and treatment goals to ensure the best possible outcome.
Limitations and Considerations
• Temporary Results – Effects last 3–4 months, requiring maintenance treatments for prolonged results.
• Precision is Essential – The Depressor Septi Nasi muscle is small and highly functional, so careful dosing is necessary to avoid unwanted effects on facial movement.
• Not a Replacement for Surgery – While botulinum toxin can lift the nasal tip subtly, it does not permanently reshape the nose like rhinoplasty.

Long-Term Benefits of Regular Botulinum Toxin Treatments
• Muscle Fatigue & Reduction in Bulk – With repeated treatments, the targeted muscle becomes weaker over time due to reduced activity, leading to a gradual slimming effect in areas such as the jawline, trapezius, and masseter muscles.
• Prevention of Deep Static Lines – Regular use of botulinum toxin reduces repetitive muscle contractions, preventing wrinkles from becoming permanently etched into the skin and resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.
• Increased Longevity of Results – As the underlying muscles adapt to reduced movement, many clients find that they require fewer units over time or that results last longer between treatments.
• Gradual Muscle Wastage (Atrophy) – Over time, the muscle experiences atrophy (a decrease in size and strength), leading to longer-lasting results and a reduced need for frequent treatments in some cases.
• Enhanced Facial and Body Contouring – In areas like the jawline, trapezius, or masseter muscles, consistent treatments reduce bulk and refine the contour, creating a naturally sculpted and balanced aesthetic.
