6 months ago, I had bellafill injected to augment my nose bridge and tip (Asian nose). I only had one bellafill session, and less than 1 syringe was used, though I’m not sure the exact cc injected. The results are okay, but doesn’t provide the definition I want. I want to get surgical rhinoplasty instead of more injections. Is it still safe to have surgery and what complications are there after bellafill?
Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. While the timetable may lend itself to a rhinoplasty now, I suggest that you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. It is important that you two develop a treatment plan that reflects your aesthetic goals.

Answer: Belafill in Nose This is an interesting question. The Belafill is a permanent filler made of PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate), which is the material used in Super Glue. These microscopic beads are incorporated into the soft tissue and can stimulate collagen formation. Now that the Belafill is injected, you must assume that the volume of the injection will be permanent. That being said, there is no reason why you cannot pursue surgical rhinoplasty to further enhance the bridge of your nose. Rather than artificial implants I would recommend using your own natural cartilage to make these changes. This is always safer as implants all carry a risk of infection or extrusion. A consultation with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon is a must.
