Is rhinoplasty possible after a nose filler procedure at Apgujeong Seoul?

Hello,

Rhinoplasty can certainly produce clear results, but some people hesitate to undergo surgery because of the long recovery period and the possibility of side effects. Instead, many people choose nose filler procedures.

Types and characteristics of nose fillers

A filler is an injection used to add volume to a specific area.

It is broadly divided into dissolvable fillers and non-dissolvable fillers.

Non-dissolvable fillers, as the name suggests, do not dissolve.

Dissolvable fillers, or hyaluronic acid fillers, have a gel-like form made using substances such as hyaluronic acid.

Safety and drawbacks of nose fillers

The purpose of fillers is to raise the nose.

Among procedures that raise the nose, fillers are commonly used.

• One advantage of dissolvable fillers is that they can be removed with a dissolving injection if you no longer want them.

• Non-dissolvable fillers remain permanently, but the drawback is that they can be difficult to remove when needed.

If a filler causes problems or is no longer wanted,

it can be removed immediately, which means its safety can be considered relatively high.

※ However, non-dissolvable fillers are very difficult to remove. If the filler is too closely attached to the skin, it may not be removed cleanly, and if normal tissue is removed as well, the skin may become too thin, making filler removal difficult.

The effects and limitations of nose fillers

However, fillers can only raise the bridge of the nose, and they have almost no effect on the tip or the nostrils.

The underlying structure does not become higher, and over time after filler use, the product may spread, causing the bridge of the nose to become thick.

As a result, it can create an overall unnatural appearance. Fillers have the advantages of a short procedure time and quick recovery, but they also have the drawback of requiring periodic repeat treatments, which can be inconvenient.

Precautions for filler removal and rhinoplasty

Fillers are a procedure used to fill in areas that are lacking,

but it is important that they are performed in a way that suits the individual.

If too much filler was used, the previously injected filler must be completely removed before the procedure is done again.

Before rhinoplasty, the filler must be dissolved.

To plan the surgery, the condition of the nose needs to be checked, and some patients may be allergic to the dissolving injection, so it is safer to receive the dissolving injection about a week before surgery.
