Injection Rhinoplasty Using Filler

Abstract

Rhinoplasty is a commonly performed cosmetic surgery in Asia. Rhinoplasty using filler is preferred because has fewer side effects and shorter down time. The part of external nose between the skin and bone or cartilages consists of 4 layers. To prevent vascular compromise, the injection should be into deep fatty layer, preventing embolization. Filler is usually injected in the order of radix, rhinion, tip, and the supratip area. To minimize asymmetry, the surgeon should always mark the midline on the nasal bridge and perform the procedure without deviating from it.
