Nose Fillers - Get A Higher Nose Bridge Without Surgery

Instead of getting a nose job through invasive surgery, injectable dermal fillers make it possible for you to attain your sought-after look without having to undergo surgery. This is a non-surgical rhinoplasty which makes use of hyaluronic acid to alter the shape and look of a nose. This procedure can improve the size of the nose, smoothen bumps, add some lift, and fill in depressed areas on the nose.

Sounds too good to be true? Do note that there are risks, complications and sub-optimal results, especially if you don’t seek treatment from an expert injector. This is why it’s crucial to get a nose filler procedure from a doctor that is skilled, experienced and has an artistic eye.

Nose Fillers Before and After

Nose filler treatment is performed by injecting dermal filler in parts of the nose that are “deficient”.

For example, if you have a low nose bridge, we will inject fillers at your nose bridge to add volume and definition to your nose. If you would like to have a sharper nose tip, fillers can be injected in the tip of your nose to make your nose look relatively thinner and more sculpted.

What is the nose filler treatment process?

This is how nose filler treatment is performed.

Step 1: Consultation with Dr Justin Boey, Medical Director, to discuss your goals, dispel myths and address possible complications or side-effects.

Step 2: A topical anesthetic (numbing cream) is applied to your nose for 15-30 minutes to reduce discomfort and pain during the treatment.

Step 3: A thin needle is used to inject hyaluronic acid filler in the areas to be treated. Next, the fillers will be moulded to achieve the desired results.

What to expect after Fillers?

Immediately after the treatment, it is possible to have temporary side effects such as redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness around the injection site.

This is normal and will disappear in a few hours. Antihistamine can be taken to help alleviate the swelling, while Arnica can help with the bruising.

To help minimize the risk of swelling and bruising, it is best not to drink alcohol before and after the procedure, do not touch the area, and avoid blood thinning medications.

How long do nose fillers last?

Nose filler treatment using hyaluronic acid fillers can last between 9 to 18 months.

Since hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body, your body has an enzyme that will gradually break down the fillers, causing it to disappear over time.

To maintain results, patients are advised to undergo another treatment before all the fillers have been absorbed.

The duration that your fillers last will vary amongst individuals. The factors that affect how long your fillers last are your lifestyle (exercise, smoking) and the body’s natural rate of metabolism.

Although there are many brands of hyaluronic acid-based fillers, we suggest that you use reputable brands of dermal fillers to ensure that your nose filler results last longer.

Can nose fillers be permanent?

Hyaluronic acid nose fillers are temporary since it is slowly broken down by your body. However, there are ‘semi-permanent’ fillers that won’t wear off as quickly. Of course, temporary fillers cost less compared to semi-permanent fillers. Temporary fillers may require you to spend money every year to have your nose redone. While semi-permanent fillers last longer and won’t require touch-ups as regularly.

Nose Fillers Side Effects

The common side effects of any injected-related procedure are tenderness, redness, bruising, and swelling. Moments after the nose filler treatment, your nose may swell. These side effects may be scary but will fade in just a few days and eventually reveal the nose you desire.

While the side effects are typically mild, there are also some risks of serious complications when a filler is injected into a blood vessel or contracts a bacterial infection. This is why it’s important to be wise when choosing a medical aesthetics clinic.

Are nose fillers safe?

This procedure should be done by a skilled and experienced doctor. Considering that the nose is in a delicate area, extra caution should be considered.

The safest area to inject fillers is along the mid-line of your nose bridge, which is away from the arteries. An accidentally clogged blood vessel may lead to permanent scarring. A clogged retinal artery may lead to blindness. This is why it’s important to see a reputable doctor for nose filler injections.

How long does swelling from fillers last?

While swelling is typically experienced after the treatment, most patients are still able to go about their normal activities. However, this side effect is temporary and subsides after a day or two. It is best to have an experienced doctor to do this treatment for a smoother procedure, less discomfort and lower risks of swelling.

Is it normal to be sore after fillers?

It is typical to experience soreness immediately after the treatment. This is usually minor and temporary. It can be treated with simple pain-killer medication. Most patients are able to go about their normal activities even with a bit of soreness around their nose region.
