Many people dream of correcting the shape of the nose, and plastic surgeons often work with clients who wish to both make subtle adjustments and completely change the nose to make it better.
However, first of all, thorough surgical intervention will not leave patients with the opportunity to correct the consequences of surgery (only minor corrections can be made).
Rhinoplasty is a non-surgical method that corrects the shape of the nose faster and safer than surgery.
For this purpose, fillers based on hyaluronic acid, self tissues (fatty fillers) and other materials are used. Thread; Hormonal agents can soften the cartilage tissue of the nose, which can correct the shape of the nose.
Second, the cost of surgery is higher, and if the surgeon makes a mistake (there is always the possibility of such a mistake), it is not always possible to correct the consequences. Today, as an alternative to this method, contour processing is successfully used, which is faster and does not produce serious negative effects.
For hormonal rhinoplasty, glucocorticoids are used, in which cartilage absorption is a side effect.
Therefore, in order to function, they are administered in large doses. They show a long time-within six months.
A common complication when using hormone rhinoplasty is nose failure.
Indications and contraindications
Nasal surgery is an effective way to achieve the desired results, but if minor corrections are needed in certain areas, this intervention can be omitted.
Indications for contour rhinoplasty include:
- The tip of the nose is too thin, drooping or upturned;
- hump;
- Nose asymmetry;
- Violations of different natures;
- Scars and other similar defects.
Contour correction has many contraindications, which can be absolute or relative. The first group includes oncological diseases, individual tolerance to the used drugs and their components, hemophilia, autoimmune diseases and endocrine system diseases.
Relative contraindications are factors that do not allow the nose to be corrected without surgery at a specific point in time, but over time, this kind of surgery becomes possible.
These contraindications are:
- Worsening of chronic diseases;
- ARVI;
- rhinitis;
- Inflammation of the skin area in the recommended area for rhinoplasty;
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- Rehabilitation period after complicated plastic surgery procedures.
In addition, this procedure is not suitable for people under 18 years of age. This is due to the fact that bone and cartilage tissue at this age are not yet fully formed, and medical interventions may cause negative deviations.
What shortcomings will contour plastic surgery help to correct?
Since non-surgical rhinoplasty may not be useful in all situations, it is important to know when this method is appropriate and helps solve the patient’s problem. This medical procedure guarantees that:
- Asymmetrical shapenose. After rhinoplasty, the nose becomes flat, no matter what causes the deviation (trauma, surgery or from birth).
- GorbinkiOn the nose. Sometimes, this defect is not considered real and does not affect the aesthetic perception, but in some cases, bumps can make a person's face unattractive, and rhinoplasty can be easily corrected.
- Table restoreAfter the nose is injured. Usually, after an accident, fight or exercise, the shape of the nose becomes ugly due to damage, but this defect is quickly eliminated.
- Remove variousfailure, Dimples and irregular behavior.
In addition, please consult a rhinoplasty specialist to eliminate nasal congestion or conversely raise the tip of the nose.
How is the procedure
Before correcting the shape of the nose, it is necessary to see a dermatologist. The doctor will check the tolerance of the drugs used in the process and the funds used.
After that, you can discuss all the details of the surgery with the rhinoplasty specialist. At this stage, the results can be predicted, the correction area can be determined, and all other wishes and other nuances of the customer can be discussed.
Before correction, apply anesthetic in the form of an ointment around the nose or around the nose, and it will start to work after about 15 minutes. Next, the calibration process begins, which can be done in different ways.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty with fillers
If the correction is made by introducing fillers, the process will not exceed 40 minutes. At the same time, these changes will attract immediate attention, because unlike surgical procedures, this procedure will not produce swelling, bruising, and swelling, and will not hinder the evaluation of doctors and patients.
The filler is called a special gel of synthetic origin. The most common filler is hyaluronic acid. This type of preparation does not contain toxins and is produced by bacterial synthesis. Facts have proved that this is a completely safe and environmentally friendly product that is harmless to the human body.
The main advantage of these fillers is that they are absolutely resistant to enzymes produced by skin cells. Under the influence of this enzyme, the filling will not be destroyed, so the correction value can be stored for a long time.
Use a syringe with a fine needle to inject the filler. This needle ("cannula") is different from the usual needle with a round blunt tip, and the cannula opening is on the side.
Immediately before the operation, store the medicine in a sealed package and open it before the administration procedure. Depending on the depth of filler injection and the desired effect, a certain amount of filler can be used.
The type of filler is different, and the duration and effectiveness of each type of filler are different. In addition to drugs based on hyaluronic acid, the following drugs are used:
- Autologous-Made according to the customer's own fabric.
- biodegradable-Gel formulations that will not be exposed to human chemical compounds, will not decompose, and are excreted from the body for a longer time than other types of gel formulations.
- biodegradable-It is decomposed under the influence of enzymes produced by the human body and removed over time, decomposing to the simplest element level.
Each type has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, biodegradable fillers are not very expensive, but the effect of introducing such drugs lasts no more than 8-12 months.
More durable biodegradable fillers have a longer life in the body, but if they are used, tissue fibrosis (proliferation of connective tissue and scar formation) is also possible.
Autologous drugs do not have these shortcomings, but are much more expensive, and the process of using this filler requires a certain amount of time to synthesize the drug.
No matter which filler is used to shape the contour of the nose, after the operation, a splint may be required to correctly shape the nose, but it takes up to a day to wear this type of accessory, after which the patient can remove it by himself.
No hormonal drugs for nose surgery
In this case, instead of using hormonal drugs in the literal sense, they use their analogs, which can partially dissolve and soften the cartilage tissue of the nose in order to correct its shape later.
The complexity of such a process lies in the fact that the expert needs to accurately calculate the amount of injected medicine and correctly determine the injection depth. In the case of failure, a cavity may be formed in the nasal cavity, and the tissue may even shrink due to overdose, or even uncontrollable.
This method is not as fast as other methods, and usually requires several steps to complete, which lasts two to three weeks. The effectiveness of this method is very high, but the doctors and patients achieved the expected results in stages, so in the first few days, no obvious changes were found.
Before performing this procedure, it is necessary to consult an endocrinologist to determine the patient's hormone background. In some cases, the doctor will point out that such procedures cannot be performed due to problems with certain hormone levels.
Threaded non-surgical nose correction
When using this method, a special thread is pulled through the area of the nose that needs to be corrected, and then it is pulled out in some areas.
Thanks to these "pulls", you can make the necessary changes to the shape of the nose.
In the first two days, the adaptation was carried out, and then the remaining part of the thread was deleted. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia and is mainly used to reshape the wings and tip of the nose.
In modern contour rhinoplasty, the frequency of use of threads is not as high as other methods. This is due to the fact that this method can only correct small defects at a relatively high cost.
Recovery process
Unlike surgical intervention which always means complicated operation, the non-surgical nose contour rhinoplasty does not require a long recovery time at the end of the operation.
Moreover, in this case, after the nose correction, the patient can leave the clinic immediately after the operation is over, without the need for the doctor's supervision.
One day after the contour correction, a person can already resume their usual lifestyle, and after three more days in the mirror, you can see the final effect of the process.
But contour rhinoplasty may have some complications. These may be small local edema and bruises, but they do not require any other procedures and medical intervention, and will disappear within a day or two.
The main thing to avoid during the recovery period from a few days to a week-any injury, even the smallest injury. This can cause fibrosis, so if the activity of the person undergoing rhinoplasty is related to the risk of accidental injury during physical activity or work, it is best to take sick leave.
In addition, during the recovery period, it is necessary to limit exposure to the skin under direct sunlight (especially in summer), not to use cosmetics even with a very small amount of cosmetics, and to avoid going to the solarium. Baths and saunas are not included these days.
Contour effect
The effectiveness of rhinoplasty depends directly on three factors: it depends on the type of surgery, and in terms of fillers, it depends on the type and the cost of the tool.
Different from the results of plastic surgery, the effect of non-surgical rhinoplasty can last up to three years, and the premise is to use the most expensive biodegradable drugs.
Only minimal changes in the use of cheap fillers were observed during the first six to eight months, after which the process must be repeated. On average, the effect of this rhinoplasty lasts about one and a half years. The exact time is impossible, because everything depends on the specific patient’s metabolic characteristics and the breakdown of filler components.
Possible complications
The process of non-surgical rhinoplasty is simple, painless, and takes an average of half an hour. But this does not rule out possible complications that may be observed in patients in some cases.
Sometimes the negative effects of contouring surgery are found during rehabilitation, and rehabilitation may take more than a few days. If problems start to appear after a week and complications are observed, a diagnosis must be made before appropriate treatment measures are taken.
The most harmless complications include:
- Slight swelling and bruising;
- Pain in the correction area;
- Swelling of the rhinoplasty area.
Experts believe that the consequences are acceptable and do not recommend any special measures to eliminate such complications.
Due to the actions of the doctor, the blockage of the large blood vessels has become more serious. This leads to impaired blood flow, and in most cases the result of this complication is tissue death.
Embolism is accompanied by symptoms such as cramps and pain syndrome, and the skin area of the correction area may be blue. If such signs are found, seek medical attention immediately.
In rare cases, it may cause an allergic reaction to one or more of the ingredients in the preparation used. However, if the procedure is carried out under the supervision of experienced experts, this possibility will be minimized.
After surgery, the possibility of nose deformation is even lower. This may be due to the doctor's unskilled movements, or it may be due to the particularity of the patient's cartilage and bone tissue. In this case, the situation can only be corrected by surgery.
In some cases, non-surgical rhinoplasty may have the following side effects:
- Some clinics may use drugslow qualityCause pain. On its own, the process of inserting the needle under the skin is very unpleasant, but if pain occurs, the doctor can use anesthetic as an anesthetic. An overdose of anesthetics can cause loss of consciousness.
- If the deep introduction of the drug is insufficient, there may beGel highlightsAnd its migration under the skin. As a result, such problem areas will look uneven and uneven. In people with thinner skin, purple spots appear at the injection site.
- inflammation-The normal response of the human body to the introduction of foreign bodies. However, if the inflammation at the injection site does not disappear in more than three days, this is the reason to consult a doctor. Usually "nodules" form under the skin in the inflamed area, which can only be removed by surgery.
- Injection too deep can causeFiller migration. . . In this case, it will flow under the skin and change its position, so the shape and features of the patient's face will be deformed. The main reason for this side effect is the inability of doctors who cannot accurately determine the depth of drug administration.
When deciding on a profiloplasty that does not require surgical intervention, it is necessary to clearly understand its prospects and weigh all the advantages and disadvantages of the method.
In most cases, this is the best way to correct the shape of the nose, but before the operation, a comprehensive examination must be carried out according to the contraindications of contour plastic surgery: this will ensure that unpleasant consequences are avoided.
