We had a patient who did not want surgery and decided on a non-surgical rhinoplasty with facial fillers. We used Restylane for fillers and placed them in the bridge above the dorsal, nose bump to camouflage it.
We also wanted to make the tip higher to match the rest of the bridge. This procedure was done without sedation. We used topical anesthesia to help with the injections. Restylane itself has anesthesia.
The fillers and Restylane will usually last six months to a year. On rare occasions, the results can continue for a few years.
Recent studies have shown that Restylane can give long-term results through its stimulation of collage where injected. This result has long been associated with fillers such as Sculptra and Radiesse. Although the results are good overall, Restylane can be shaped after you it is injected.
There is an enzyme that can be injected to take some, or all of it, away if you don’t like the results. Hyaluronidase is an injectable enzyme that can degrade the Restylane and usually works in a few days. Essentially, we make sure that you like your results!
