Silicone Ideal Filler for Nose Depression Correction

In my practice, I only use liquid injectable silicone for correcting nasal defects as it is permanent and the most precise. Silicone is ideal for this and gives great results. However, it must be injected by an experienced physician who uses the proper injection technique which is the micro-droplet injection technique. In my opinion, temporary fillers are a waste of time for a non-surgical rhinoplasty as they require repeated treatments and added cost, are less precise, and give less natural-looking results. Feel free to view the photos of non-surgical rhinoplasties on our website.

It depends on what area of the nose you are trying to fill in, how much of a depression you are trying to fix, and what type of filler you plan to use.  Fillers are not equal and some are preferred over others in the nose.  Please consult with a board certified specialist who can assist you.
