Restylane in Nasal Areas?

I had injections into the nasal areas of my face in Nov. and swelling occurred for more than 1 week on both sides...then the swelling dissipated on left side, but remained on right. I called doc and he said just wait. I waited. It is now Jan. and the uneven areas make my smile lopsided. Is there a way to take out some of this filler?

Restylane in nose

Dear ginnene, I would visit your injector again for your options You can either dissolve part of one side, or inject a little more on the other The goal is symmetry which will make it look better depending on what your exam looks like Best regards, Nima Shemirani

Restylane in nose - how to correct

Sounds like you have some asymmetry after having had restylane injected into your nose. Hard to say why this happened, but in any case, you can dissolve any excess hyaluronic acid filler with hyaluronidase by a trained and experienced injector such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon.

Restylane in nasal areas?

If too much filler was injected on one side, it is possible to dissolve the excess filler with the enzyme hyaluronidase. I would recommend following up with the physician who performed your treatment and mentioning this option. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

Restylane is uneven

Yes, Restylane is a hyaluronic acid filler and it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase, by an experienced injector. It doesn't have to all be removed, just the overfilled and uneven portion. It's a simple procedure.
