I had an open rhinoplasty with septum cartilage a month ago, everything is fine except now I want the tip to be a little more projected. Can I use Resatylane injection on the tip of the nose? How long would it last? I've heard that Resatylane could last longer on noses that's been through rhinoplasty because it would develop scar tissues underneath so it never really goes away. Is this true?
Answer: Liquid Rhinoplasty Hi @tamayooo! Tip swelling usually takes 1 year to fully resolve after a rhinoplasty. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Can Restylane be injected in the tip of my nose following rhinoplasty? Thank you for sharing your question. First, wait a full year before judging the results of the rhinoplasty. Then if you still have a problem, use of filler can be considered. The tip of the nose can be tricky with fillers and treatment could result in necrosis. Ask you surgeon if he is experienced with filling the tip of the nose or see an experience oculofacial surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Fillers after Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. I believe you are still far too early in your healing process to consider additional treatment on your nose. Rhinoplasty takes many months - up to a full year - before the results are fully apparent. I recommend you wait for one year before thinking about another treatment. If you are not completely satisfied with the results of your rhinoplasty at that point, a filler treatment is certainly a possibility. If you pursue a liquid revision rhinoplasty at some point in the future, make sure you work with a board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience in this procedure. Liquid rhinoplasty takes extensive experience, expertise and an artistic eye to ensure the results are both natural and proportionate to the rest of the facial features.

Answer: Restylane after surgical rhinoplasty Hi,Thank you for your question.Nasal tip swelling usually takes 1 year to fully subside after surgical rhinoplasty. I would recommend waiting at least 1 year before considering fillers in the nose for the best cosmetic outcome. Additionally, keep in mind that the vascular anatomy may be different after rhinoplasty which can increase your risks for vessel occlusion, skin necrosis, and blindness. Please make sure to see an experienced injector for treatment of this area.Hope this helps!

Answer: Can Restylane injection be done on tip of the nose? Injecting a filler into the tip of the nose can be very tricky. I frequently do not recommend it as it can be an area where necrosis of the skin can occur. I would discuss your concern with the surgeon who performed your rhinoplasty. There are areas of the nose that sometimes can be injected with less risk.
