I realize it is difficult to tell from a photo but I'm wondering if it possible for my hanging collumella to be corrected with a simple procedure under local anesthesia. I dislike the way it appears protruded when I smile. I try to avoid general at all costs due to a possible malignant hyperthermia genetic predisposition.

Answer: Botox And Fillers Can Improve The Appearance Of A Hanging Columella Botox, placed properly in the nasal tip, may be used to treated a hanging columulla--exposure of the columella that may have resulted naturally or more commonly as a consequence of a poor rhinoplasty. Moreover, small amounts of hyaluronic acid filler, such as Belotero Balance, placed along the alae (the wings of the nose) can further camouflage the columella. These techniques should only be performed by experienced injectors with extensive experience in nonsurgically treating these kinds of problems.
