Background:
Hyaluronic acid has been widely used for nonsurgical rhinoplasty. Little literature focuses on Chinese women of the Han nationality, who have a characteristic flattened facial contour. Projection of the nose, including the nasal dorsum, nasal tip, and columella, plays an important role in achieving an attractive face.
Aim:
The aim of this study was to investigate the application of multiplane hyaluronic acid in rhinoplasty using blunt and sharp needle technique.
Method:
From June 2011 to February 2014, 280 cases of nonsurgical rhinoplasty by hyaluronic acid were applied; 1-9 months follow-up showed satisfactory appearance.
Result:
Postoperative results showed no complications, such as infection or flap necrosis.
Conclusion:
For esthetic and safety considerations, we suggest multiple plane injections using blunt combined with sharp needle-filling techniques.
