Is it possible to use fillers on sides of the nose to widen the nose bridge

Hello! Yes, it is possible to do this with fillers BUT you need to understand it is temporary, becomes expensive over time and has risks- blindness, necrosis of skin and discoloration are all possible. Also, if you wear glasses, the pods on glasses can displace the filler and leave an unsightly dimple. Discuss your objectives with an experienced facial plastic surgeon.take care and good luck!

If you are looking for a short down-time, temporary solution to your cosmetic concerns, then nonsurgical rhinoplasty using a hyaluronic acid filler (Restylane, Juvederm Voluma) is a very effective way to reshape the bridge of the nose.  They can be used to both augment and widen the bridge of the nose. 

It is possible to widen the upper part of the nasal bridge with fillers. However extreme care should be taken as certain fillers can cause problems like infections, allergic reactions or skin necrosis. Hyaluronic acid fillers are a better choice but not completely safe. The injection should be done gently and coservatively.The best option is to get a cartilage implant using your own cartilage to fix the problem. RegardsDr. J

Placement of fillers on the side of the bridge of the nose is not advised.  There are arteries that run in that area that are vital to the blood supply of the nose and the ocular area.  If they became occluded the results could be disastrous.  A surgical approach would be your best bet for addressing the situation.

Although only temporary, injectable fillers would be a good method to augment the sides of the nasal bones for increased width. A good HA filler, like Juvederm, will work well and will last over a year.

Yes, this is possible. Injection of hyaluronic acid fillers in the eye area can cause rare but serious complications. It is critically important that you find a highly experienced physician injector (plastic surgeon or dermatologist) if you want to pursue injectable treatment in this area.

In our experience, a combination of fat and and stem cell is a much safer approach with longer lasting result, however, filler is also a good alternative if a special technique is used to prevent complications.

As long as you are adding to the nose rather than needing to subtract, fillers are an excellent non-surgical alternative method of improving the nose. Depending on the filler, they can last several years.

Fillers can produce very satisfactory results in experienced hands, but you need to discuss the chance of side effects with your plastic surgeon.Alternative treatments involve surgery and placement of cartilage grafts.  These treatments, however, are very useful if you have trouble breathing because of internal valve problems.

sure can. HA fillers are the best. YOU will get about 1-2 years at that location. YOu can dissolve them if need be. YOu can get a more precise result. The complications that people mention  can occur but are extremely rare.  Cartilage grafts have their own complications  as well.
