How Much Filler is Required for Non Surgical Nose Procedure?

Question

Ive made an appointment for a consultation - the doctor says he is using radiesse. I was just wondering to build a bridge on an asian nose - how many MLs of the injection is required to avoid the doctor using to much? Ive been told they should not use any more than 0.3ml - is this true?

David C. Pearson, MD · Answer

Everyone's different, of course, but typically I'll use volumes around 0.3-0.4 cc for most cases. Some can require as much as 0.6-0.8 cc. I, too, like to start with a temporary and even reversible filler like Juvederm or Restylane. (Radiesse, while temporary, cannot be reversed...it has to dissolve away on its own). If the temporary works well, then I might inject Artefill.

I have not heard of a hard and fast rule of much filler to be used in the nose. Whilst it true that only small volumes are needed. Usually always less than 1ml. I cant say its true to state they should not use less than 0.3mls. It very case by case dependant. Some bridges are flatter than others. Some people will have a larger space to fill in the deep fat layer of the nasal plane whilst others will not. Also you can Radiesse but you must be aware this product can not be dissolved like normal hyaluronic acid fillers. So if you don’t like the result or something goes wrong it can not be dissolved. This increases the risk of the procedure.

I would prefer restylane for your first time since it goes away faster if you dont like it.  No more than 0.3-0.5cc should be needed but each nose is different and it depends.  I would avoid any injection to the tip.
