Can Juvederm ultra 3 have permanent lasting effect on my nose shape due to stretching the dermis?

Question

I am 3 months post-op in having 0.7ml Juvederm ultra 3 injected. I wanted to fix a tiny scar on my nostril but i was overfilled and injected in the wrong places. Now I have filler near the tip, side of my bridge and above my nostril. Can the filler have lasting effect due to stretching the dermis as i have lumps and overfilled areas in parts of my nose which i do not intend to augment. Thank you.

Hi and thanks for your question. The filler is not going to stretch your skin - skin bounces back very well after fillers dissolve by themselves or are dissolved with hyaluronidase enzyme injection. I would suggest going to an injector experienced with Non Surgical Rhinoplasty and having them dissolve your lumps with enzyme. Hope that helps.

No, the skin will not stretch after nasal filler. It will all return to where is was after about 6-9 months, maybe longer. Stretched skin has elasticity that springs in back to it's original position.
