How is Nose Filling Made?

The process application takes 5-10 minutes. In order for the procedure to be painless, an anesthetic cream is applied to the area to be treated 20-30 minutes before the application. The procedure consists of injecting the skin filler material into the key areas determined by the doctor and the patient together, thus providing an aesthetic improvement.

What are the Advantages of Nose Filling?

Nasal filling aesthetics offers many advantages to patients. First, it is a good option for many patients who do not want to have surgery or are considering surgery but have not yet made up their minds. Secondly, touch-ups are very easy to perform because a simple injection is all it takes to add a small amount of filler to a particular area. With these features, the nose can be “shaped” until the desired result is achieved with injections. And thirdly, nasal filling is much more economical compared to surgical techniques.

Since the filling materials used in nasal filling are not permanent, the technique allows the patient to have an idea about the result without making a permanent commitment. In cases where the patient is not completely satisfied with the result, the procedure is reassuring as it is reversible. The filling disappears in a few months and the nose takes its original shape.

What are the Disadvantages of Nose Filling?

There are two main disadvantages. First, the result is not permanent. Depending on the type of filling materials, the effect times are different. The result can take up to one to two years depending on the material and injection technique. Second, the main limitation of the technique is that only volume can be added. If there is nose reduction, an advanced bump and excessive curvature, filler injection alone will not be sufficient. For this reason, nasal filling may not be suitable for every situation, because some defects of the nose cannot be corrected with this method.

However, nasal filling can correct many problems that can be done with surgery. It is a versatile technique and can be applied to different types of nasal anatomies and skin types. It is a good alternative for patients who do not want to have surgery, where surgery may be too risky for medical or other reasons, or who do not have enough time for the recovery period required by the surgery.

It Can Also Be Used For Revision Nose Aesthetics

Widespread use of nasal filling is also applied to patients who have undergone rhinoplasty but need revision rhinoplasty for minor corrections. Nasal filler injection may be a good option for such patients. It can be applied to camouflage imperfections or add volume to areas with tissue loss. Nasal filling is a suitable option for every adult who is in good general health and does not have an excessive deformity in his nose.

How is the recovery process in nasal filling?

After the nasal filling injection, normal life can be continued without interruption. There is no need to stay at home for swelling, bruising and healing. It is one of the aesthetic procedures with the highest patient satisfaction.
