Getting filler is the different way to say getting botox right? Is there any side affect if i get it on my nose??
Answer: Filler used on the nose can be long lasting. Without looking at your nose I can't say if you are a good candidate for using filler. I feel that if it is done correctly and certain areas such as building up a low bridge is can be effective and lasts at least a year if not longer. My preference is an HA filler such as Perlane. It is generally not safe to inject the tip or nostrils as damage to the tissue can occur. I would consult a doctor with rhinoplasty experience as doing this is really a form of rhinoplasty surgery with a similar set of potential issues.

Answer: Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Filler placed carefully along the nose bridge, sometimes referred to as non-surgical rhinoplasty, can be a fantastic alternative to invasive surgeries. Filler can help enhance the nose bridge in patients who have little cartilage, or can provide a smoother profile for those who have “bumps.” How long the effects of the non-surgical rhinoplasty lasts will depend on what kind of filler is used. I typically like to use Radiesse, a robust, calcium-based filler with a density that can work great for shaping the nose, chin, cheeks, and jawline. Radiesse will generally last 9-12 months, and like you mentioned, will be gradually absorbed by the body. When done correctly, there is very small risk of side effects outside of bruising and/or swelling. Be sure to consult with a board certified Dermatologist who is an experienced injector. Best of luck.

Answer: Filler on nose Thank you for your question. Filler and botox are two separate things. Botox is used to decrease wrinkles that come from animation (for example; smiling or frowning). While fillers are used to "fill" in the wrinkles that occur when your face is at rest, or to fill in contour defects. If you are looking to improve "bunny lines" then botox is a great treatment. However, if you are trying to fill in a concavity, or mask a nasal hump then fillers are the way to go. Either treatment has minimal side effects. Botox will typically last 3 months while fillers like Juvederm will last about a year.I recommend that you find a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your goals.Best Regards,Dr. Stutman

Answer: Filler for Bridge of Nose I prefer Radiesse to even out the bridge of the nose. Radiesse lasts a little over a year.
