Is Silicone Microdroplet Technique on the nose safe in the hands of a highly experienced and qualified plastic surgeon?

Yes. It is very safe. Using microdroplets with tiny needles with multiple areas of injection make the acceptance by the body very routine. The product does not migrate because it is thick and not apt to spread in the tissues. Further, after the first placement, within six weeks, nature builds an invisible and not palpable wall around it to stabilize its position. Nasal liquid silicone injections are safe as proven by over 60 years of use. The product has remained on the FDA list as approved and its safety has never been questioned. Obviously, the experience and skill of the injector is important. Technique, when properly done, should yield no particular problems. It is rare to even have bruising and swelling afterwards. The well-trained and experienced injector knows where the major blood vessels are located and knows to avoid those areas. As it turns out, the areas where the blood vessels are, are very low on the nose, in the groove between the nose and the cheek and those are areas that generally do not require filling.
