I would like my bridge raised and just an overall thinner look to my nose. What is the best route rhinoplasty or could this be achieved using nose fillers? Im looking for the least invasive procedure as I am not keen on going under the knife. Also Im scared of scarring and keloids....which i had on my ears before but they were removed. What recommendations do you have to improve my nose?
Answer: Injectable African American Rhinoplasty African American rhinoplasty typically involves increasing tip definition via increased projection, cartilage grafting, narrowing of the nostrils, and very conservative defatting of the underlying fat. The bridge is defined by building it up also via cartilage or implant grafting.Having said this, not everyone however is a candidate for surgery- in your case you are at a higher risk for keloid formation given your history.You can still get a noticeable natural result by just filling in the bridge and increasing the definition of the nasal bridge. It makes it look more triangular rather than flat. The ideal filler for you is one that is least likely to cause keloids such as the hyaluronic fillers i.e. Restylane or Juvederm. I have been using Juvederm Voluma over the past year because it can last more than two years with even better results than the older HA's.Good Luck.

Answer: Ethnic Rhinoplasty and Fillers In general fillers may help somewhat on the dorsum of the nose, especially on the bridge. Management of the ethnic nose requires the expertise and skill of a rhinoplasty surgeon with experience in this area as it is basically an augmentation rhinoplasty. The surgeon needs to understand the proper aesthetics to maintain the balance of the patient’s ethnicity and facial features.

Answer: Rhinoplasty, some advices: Thank you very much for the questions.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, After having analyzed all the info. and photos provided to us, i recommend you perform an Open Full Rhinoplasty, includding narrowing of the nasal base and nostrils, with nasal bones treatment (controled fracture) and alar + triangular nasal cartilages re-shaping.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Fillers vs Rhinoplasty Fillers are only temporary but might help the dorsum of your nose somewhat for several months only. If you have pierced ears and not keloids there or elswhere you are unlikely to have keloids with a rhinoplasty. Always find a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in African American rhinoplasty. See the below link for details on how to locate one in your area.
