Non-surgical correction of the tip of the nose: what it is, indications and contraindications



Non-surgical correction of the tip of the nose is a new and interesting alternative for patients interested in improving the shape of the nose without undergoing invasive surgery. The advantages of this method:

• The results are immediately visible compared to almost a year for surgical rhinoplasty.
• Any minor bruising or redness resulting from non-surgical correction may be hidden by makeup. In any case, these problems usually go away within three to four days.
• While some patients may experience slight discomfort during non-surgical correction, there is no significant pain associated with the procedure.
• Patients often return to their normal mode of operation immediately after the procedure.
• The patient is conscious during the procedure and can interact with his doctor.
• General anesthesia is not required, only local anesthetic.

Injections are usually used to remove crow's feet and facial wrinkles, but plastic surgery has found another, non-trivial use for them. This procedure takes up to 15 minutes. During treatment, the surgeon will inject a gel preparation into the required areas of the nose to help camouflage the flaws. Although some patients may be concerned that the nose will look bigger after treatment, such fears are groundless. The treatment simply smoothes the contours of the nose.

The action of dermal fillers is temporary, that is, if necessary, the patient and the doctor can choose a different approach to the correction of the nose.



• Also, the doctor may suggest hormonal drugs such as "Diprospan" and "Kenolog." They help to remove (dissolve) the extra soft tissues of the nose. This method requires a highly qualified doctor, because he needs to calculate the correct dosage in order not to remove more tissue than is required. Such a correction of the tip of the nose can take two to three weeks.
• Correction is possible with the use of aptos threads. They are inserted into the desired area of ​​the nose (for example, the wings of the nose or back) through small punctures and tighten, giving the nose the desired shape. After two or three days, the surgeon cuts off the ends of the threads, and the patient sees the end result.
• To align the contour of the nose can be used langette - a device made of durable plaster or plastic. It is also used for postoperative "alignment" of body parts.

Indications for non-surgical correction of the tip of the nose

Non-surgical rhinoplasty technique is an excellent option for patients who are looking for a quick, satisfactory result. Candidates for this procedure are interested in correcting minor cosmetic defects, such as humps or bulges on the nose. This is any person who has:

• Slightly arched nose.
• Small nose that needs extensions.
• Hook-shaped tip of the nose, which I would like to straighten.
• There is a small bump on the nose.
• A nose that needs work after surgical rhinoplasty.

Contraindications

• People with significant deformation of the tip of the nose or those who wish to reduce the size of the nose should not settle for non-surgical rhinoplasty of the nose . For these patients, surgical intervention is necessary, for example, an autochondroplant (the cartilage necessary to give the desired shape to the nose is “borrowed” from another part of the patient's body).
• The non-surgical method does not suit people with a very short but thick nose, because the filler thickens it even more, and visually this nose looks even shorter.

Correction of the nose tip: what happens before, during and after the injection intervention

A session of a non-surgical procedure for nose correction is preceded by a consultation with a doctor. This is a very important stage at which the doctor examines the patient and tries to understand his (or her) expectations regarding the outcome of the procedure.

20-30 minutes before the nasal tip is corrected, the doctor will use a local anesthetic for additional comfort.

During the procedure, the dermal filler is injected in small amounts and in precise places into the skin in order to have complete control over the shape and contours of the nose. Then the doctor will massage the nose to give it the desired shape. In this case, the patient holds a mirror, monitoring the results of correcting the tip of the nose.

Dermal fillers are materials that are commonly used in cosmetology for the correction of scars, wrinkles and other depressions in the skin. As a rule, they are made of several types of materials (synthetic, artificial and natural categories).

• Hyaluronic acid is one of the most versatile and exciting substances of nature. It is found throughout the human body, and is also found in most other living organisms.
• It has many functions, for example, gives skin elasticity. Restylane and Yuviderm are sterile gels consisting of non-animal hyaluronic acid. They do not contain human or animal DNA and have the best safety profile of all fillers currently on the market.
• "Radies" is an injection implant consisting of calcium hydroxyapatite. This is a filler that is injected into the skin with minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. Injection of the product provides immediate correction of the selected area of ​​the face.

Rehabilitation after nose correction:

• It is necessary to avoid touching or applying makeup on the treated area for 6 hours after the procedure to prevent infection.
• Most patients return to normal, daily activities immediately after visiting the doctor. With non-surgical nose correction, there is no significant swelling, bruising or pain.

However, wearing sunglasses or heavy glasses should be avoided for two weeks after the procedure.

Results usually last from 6-12 months. The doctor can develop a plan for regular follow-up treatments to maintain the initial result.
