Can I get fillers to help the indentations my glasses have caused me on the side of my nose ?

Question

I’ve been wearing glasses for years now and , I switched to contacts but now I have these horrible indentations on the sides that won’t go away. Is it possible to get filler there ? Are there any risks ? I’ve had fillers in the nose before on the nose bridge but never there cause I didnt see the point until now

It’s very difficult to determine best treatment for indentation caused from eyeglasses. Posting a photo would have helped. Based on your description I would suggest Hyaluronic acid based fillers.

If you haven't worn your glasses for a year, and if the indentations are horrible, depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon 1000 nasal injections may be considered for filling in these permanent indentations. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr. Josep

Thank you for your question. Yes! You most definitely can and should have a great result. It should last a long time since that is an area with minimal movement.
Happy contact wearing!

Yes, you can use filler on these nose depression lines. HA filler like Juvederm would be recommend first since this would be a temporary fix lasting 3-6 months. At that point if you like how the filler looks you can use something longer lasting like Bellafill/ Artefill which could last up to 5 years.

careful injections in that area can be done.. I would use a HA filler and inject intradermal with a 31 g needle.
