Can Juvederm Be Safely Used for Reshaping in the Nose? What is the Safest Filler to Use in Nose?

Hello, I have been doing extensive research on the non-surgical nose job. Rhinoplasty is out of the question. for what I've researched, it has a high revision rate. Anyway, I went to this doctor, in Phoenix, that said he is the only one that uses Artefill for nose reshaping. he was evasive and even got mad when I kept asking questions. He said he uses a technique from Brazil. I do not trust him! What's the safest filler to use in the nose? Thanks!

Silikon-1000 may be safely adminiseterd by experienced physicians for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty procedures.

During my fellowship in Facial Plastic Surgery, my rhinoplasty teacher taught me the art of using small amounts of Silikon-1000 for improving irregularities following Rhinoplasty Surgery. Silikon-1000 is an off-label filler that may be used to improve the appearance of your nose provided the material is injected properly and in small amounts.

Volumizing Fillers Work Well For NonSurgical NoseJobs

I have been performing nonsurgical nose jobs for more than a decade already and have found that semi-permanent volumizing fillers, i.e. those fillers designed for deeper injection and more lift and bulk work best and yield gratifying, relatively long-lasting results. In the U.S., volumizing agents include Perlane L, Juvederm Ultra Plus XC, and Radiesse (or Radiesse combined with one of the two agents), and I rely on these in my Upper East Side office. Juvederm and Restylane, simple fillers,... more

Juvaderm and Rstylane (hyaluronic acid) are the safest for fillers

Hello, The hyaluronic acid fillers (aka Restylane and Juvaderm) are the safest since they can be injected deep or superficial and do not form granulomas (inflammatory reaction nodules). I would recommend them as a temporary non surgical nose shaping treatment. Another modality is fat. Fat will be a permanent filler, so if you like what juvaderm accomplishes for the shape of your nose you can transition to getting fat. Below is a before and after photo link of a... more

Nasal Fillers

Occassionally I do use fillers in the nose. The safest areas to inject are along the nasal dorsum over the bone and dorsal nasal cartilages. Injecting the nasal tip can be a bit more risky and could result in compromise to the nasal skin vasculature. I would recommend only using hyaluronic acid fillers - like Juvederm or Restylane, they have a soft "gel like" substance and are reversable if needed. Thank you.
