I had restalyn injected in my nose to lessen the appearance of a large dorsal hump. I really like the results and am now considering surgical rhinoplasty for a permanent solution. I want the Restalyne to dissolve naturally before my surgery so my surgeon can accurately operate on my dorsal hump. How long do I have to wait?

Answer: Dissolving Restylane After Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question! This scenario happens a lot in my officef and I even operated on someone in this same scenario, yesterday. Prior to non-surgical rhinoplasty, I take pictures of the patient and image them on the computer, then we use Restylane to create the non-surgical profile that they are looking for...kind of as a "trial run" prior to surgical rhinoplasty. When the patient is ready for the surgical procedure, I have them come in anywhere from 2-7 days before their procedure to get all of the Restylane dissolved so that we can get a good look at what we would like to do in the operating room. Otherwise, Restylane in the nose can take over a year or more to dissolve on its own.

Answer: Dissolving restylane Filler injections in nasal bridges can last a long time. Sometimes it will last years. If a surgical option is being considered, you can have the restylane dissolved with hyaluronidase to get a more accurate picture of the nose's natural shape. Best of luck.
