Q. If I pressed the bridge of my nose, could nose filler spread?

Hello. I am Kim Hyeong-taek, representative director of Kowon Plastic Surgery.

In this answer note, someone asked whether a possible situation could occur after applying external pressure to the nose after rhinoplasty, so I have prepared a response.

I am here to answer that question.

Q. If I pressed the bridge of my nose, could nose filler spread?

I’m worried that the filler might spread, so I’m asking.

It has been about two weeks since I got nose filler, and during those two weeks I tried pressing up on both sides of the bridge with my hands because I was worried my nose might get lower.

Could this behavior cause my nose to become lower?

I did not press from top to bottom, and I pressed from both sides while taking into account the swelling from the filler.

Please explain in detail.

From the question, it seems that it has been two weeks since the nose filler was injected, and during those two weeks you pressed up on both sides of the bridge of your nose. It appears you are asking because you are worried that this behavior may have caused the filler to spread.

You asked because you are concerned about filler spreading, but it is difficult to give a definite answer based only on what you described. In general, nose filler will gradually spread a little over time.

Please avoid touching it with your hands, and observe it until the swelling goes down and it settles in place.

If, as you said, you did not press from the top, I think the height will be maintained.

I hope you have a good result from the procedure.
