Can filler be removed during closed rhinoplasty ?

September 2, 2022
Asked By:poiyut

I currently have some filler in my nose and am planning to get a surgical rhinoplasty. I will of course get the filler dissolved a few months before, but from what I've seen online and heard from others is that there will still be some filler remaining even after hyaluronidase injections. A lot of surgeons say they can take the remainder out during rhinoplasty. Is that only possible with the open technique? Or can filler be scooped out with the closed approach as well?
