Nosejob without Surgery - By: Dr. PritiShukla

We are talking about the “filler injections”. Fillers are usually made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is natural body substance and is proven to be safe. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be injected into the nose to change the shape of the nose. Filler can be injected over the nose bridge to increase the height of the nose, to hide small humps and irregularities and to balance a slightly crooked nose. Advantages of this kind of nonsurgical nosejob are many. It is a virtually painless procedure, takes just 10 minutes and you can see the result immediately. In fact you can actively participate in your nose job and give your suggestions during injection to fine tune the results to your liking. What you see at the end is what you get. There is very little downtime if any. Most people can do it in course of their routine day.
But surgical nosejob is not out yet! That is because fillers only work for noses where relatively smaller improvement is required. Fillers will not suffice if the nose is too flat or too crooked. Obviously filler injections can not make a big nose smaller or a wide nose narrow. These can be done only by nose surgery. Nose surgery is permanent –whereas hyaluronic acid filler injections are temporary with result lasting upto 6 -12 months only. This can of course be a plus point if you want your old nose back, because the nose will be back to original after this time. In fact “hyaluronidase” injections are also available which can dissolve the filler and bring it back to original.
So, what is the best option for you to fix your nose - surgery or filler? Your plastic surgeon will be the best to decide if fillers will work for you. Your plastic surgeon can offer you a trial normal saline injection which simulates filler result to help you decide. Of course you can have the surgery done anytime in future once filler effect is gone after an year or you can have the filler injection repeated as often as you need.
