The top of my nose seems to be just skin and bone. The bridge is narrow and boney. Wearing sunglasses can be irritating. Would a filler like restylane be an alternative to nose surgery for creating a softer look and feel to my nose?
While hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane and Juvederm can fill and soften facial features, care must be taken when injecting it into the skin and soft tissues of the nose. Because you have thin skin, the fillers are very unforgiving and will add bulk and fullness. Also they are not permanent and will require reinjection at 9months to a year. If you decide to go with fillers in the nose, small amounts should be injected with vigorous massage to make certain that you don't get irregularities from the filler. Obviously, this is not an FDA approved use for the filler materials, but it has been done before.
