Summary
Non-surgical rhinoplasty using fillers like hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite offers an alternative to surgery. Careful technique with microcannulas and small injections minimizes serious risks such as skin necrosis.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Dermatology
- Cosmetic Procedures
Background:
- Nonsurgical rhinoplasty using fillers is an appealing alternative to surgical rhinoplasty.
- This technique requires careful application to prevent serious complications.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe a preferred technique for nonsurgical rhinoplasty using absorbable fillers.
- To highlight potential complications and their management.
Main Methods:
- Utilized absorbable fillers: hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite (ANSM-approved).
- Employed 27G microcannulas over needles for injections.
- Advocated for multiple small boluses via tunnel injections, avoiding large single-volume injections.
Main Results:
- Calcium hydroxylapatite is recommended for the nasal dorsum.
- Hyaluronic acid is preferred for the nasal tip.
- Technique minimizes risks like the Tyndall effect and skin necrosis.
Conclusions:
- A meticulous injection technique with specific fillers for different nasal areas is crucial.
- Adherence to described methods is key to preventing adverse events in nonsurgical rhinoplasty.

Epistaxis
845
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...

Nose and Nasal Cavity
16.8K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Reticular Dermis
4.5K
The papillary and reticular dermis are the two layers of the dermis. They are made of connective tissue with fibers of collagen extending from one to the other, making the border between the two somewhat indistinct. The dermal papillae extending into the epidermis belong to the papillary layer, whereas the dense collagen fiber bundles below belong to the reticular layer.
Reticular Layer
Underlying the papillary layer is the much thicker reticular layer, composed of dense, irregular connective...
