Does Skin Peel treatments cause nose to get bigger?

Question

Hi, general question, Do chemical skin peel treatments on the nose cause the skin to get thicker or bigger? I had rhinoplasty back in 2018 and months back I had pulse laser for rosacea and some months after I had skin peel treatment . Helpful advice and honesty is much appreciated. Thank you. B.

Hi there! I haven't heard of instances of the nose getting bigger after a skin peel treatment. Most often, we use those forms of treatments to help with thick, sebaceous skin of the nose. Now, the rosacea and pulsed laser could cause the skin to still be inflamed. If the treatment was relatively recent, you may still be dealing with settling of the skin. I would think that to be more likely of the case. It may be worthwhile, if you haven't, to see a Dermatologist to ensure nothing else could be causing the issue. As well, after rhinoplasty, I would suggest reviewing your results with your surgeon to check for scar tissue formation. Hope this helps.
