Summary
This study presents mini-invasive techniques for nasal aesthetic correction using botulinum toxin A (BTxA) and absorbable fillers. These methods offer a safe and effective alternative to surgery for improving nasal imperfections with long-lasting results.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Dermatology
- Aesthetic Medicine
Background:
- Nasal aesthetics are crucial for facial harmony, with a long history of interest in correction.
- Traditional surgical rhinoplasty often involves invasive procedures and hospitalization.
- Recent advancements in minimally invasive techniques have transformed aesthetic medicine.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce and evaluate novel mini-invasive techniques for correcting nasal imperfections.
- To offer a safer, less invasive alternative to surgical rhinoplasty.
- To detail the application of botulinum toxin A and absorbable fillers for nasal contouring.
Main Methods:
- Utilized botulinum toxin A (BTxA) to address imperfections caused by muscle hypertonicity.
- Employed absorbable fillers for safe correction of nasal profile deformities from root to tip.
- Applied precise techniques to minimize potential side effects.
Main Results:
- Achieved significant improvements in nasal aesthetics using non-surgical methods.
- Demonstrated long-lasting and well-appreciated outcomes in patients.
- Successfully corrected a wide range of nasal imperfections, including profile and tip deformities.
Conclusions:
- Mini-invasive techniques with BTxA and absorbable fillers provide a safe and effective approach to nasal aesthetic correction.
- These methods offer a valuable alternative to traditional surgical rhinoplasty.
- The described precise application ensures patient satisfaction and minimizes adverse events.

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway
Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Epistaxis
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...

Administering Oxygen by Nasal Cannula
Oxygen therapy is critical to patient care, especially for those struggling with respiratory issues. This intervention increases the oxygen concentration in the lungs, enhancing the amount of oxygen transported to the body's tissues. One standard method of delivering supplemental oxygen is through a nasal cannula, a non-invasive device that provides low to medium oxygen concentrations.
