I've had a non surgical nose job before and loved the results. I moved and went to a new provider--she mentioned that necrosis is possible and I need to weigh that into risks associated with the procedure. My prior provider did not tell me that! What's the verdict?

Answer: Nonsurgical Filler Nose Jobs Have Proven Safe Over About Two Decades I have personally been performing nonsurgical filler rhinoplasties for nearly two decades, since the early days when Radiesse, a calcium-based filler was first being used for this purpose. At the beginning, this five minute technique was used almost exclusively for straightening bumpy, humped nasal bridges. Later, its uses expanded to include raising droopy tips and treating certain nasal asymmetries. These days, most experienced injectors use hyaluronic acid-based volumizing fillers, such as Restylane Lyft or Hyabell Deep for these purposes. While vascular occlusion and necrosis are potential adverse reactions, fortunately, given the very large number of people treated, these kinds of reactions are quite unusual. What's more, hyaluronic acid injectables can be quickly dissolved and necrosis averted with the timely and aggressive use of hyaluronidase (a hyaluronic acid dissolving enzyme). So, continue to feel comfortable and best of luck.

Answer: Necrosis Dear mtimko, there is a risk of necrosis when using dermal fillers and it should be discussed prior to injections. I would recommend finding a plastic surgeon to perform you injections.
