Can I have non surgical rhinoplasty? I have type 1 diabetes

Question

I'm already 18 years old last year, I have type 1 diabetes since when I was 14. I'm taking insulin every morning and evening , I'm so much interested about non surgical rhinoplasty. That was my dream! Everyday I feel so insecure about my flat nose, I want to boost my confidence! Coz I have so much insecurities. But my family are really concerned about that due to injections. And I want to know if non surgical rhinoplasty is really safe for me. Can I do that? :( I'm sad

Thank you for your question. You should always make sure your diabetes is well-controlled, but regardless you should be able to have a nonsurgical rhinoplasty. I would consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to assess whether or not you would benefit from a nonsurgical rhinoplasty rather than surgical correction.

That said, not everybody is a candidate for a non-surgical nose job procedure. Don't forget, adding volume to your nose will only lead to a larger nasal appearance. Please consider re asking a question with photographs and a description of what you would like to achieve. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is typically for very small problems, and remember that it's temporary. Without pictures, it's touch to say if that is appropriate for you. In the hands of a board certified plastic surgeon, and a proper exam room or operating room, your risk of infection is very small, and either procedure (surgical or non-surgical) should be safe.  Best of luck to you.

Dear ChryzaellePh,
generally speaking, dermal fillers are safe to use even if a patient has diabetes. If you are considering a treatment, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

For a definitive change in your nose, I recommend  rhinoplasty surgery, diabetes is not a contraindication at all.

A nonsurgical rhinoplasty involves using fillers rather than having surgery. Even with diabetes, you should be able to have either surgery or a nonsurgical rhinoplasty, providing your diabetes is controlled.
You will need to see a board certified plastic surgeon to evaluate your nose and determine which procedure would be most appropriate for you to meet your goals. Non-surgical rhinoplasties do work well when mild changes are needed, but they are temporary, whereas a surgical rhinoplasty is permanent.
Thank you for your question, and best of luck to you.
