Hyaluronic Acid Filler Injection in the Nose in Correlation With Rhinoplasty

Abstract

The use of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers in both primary and revision rhinoplasties has gained increasing popularity among physicians in recent years. Although surgical rhinoplasty remains the gold standard for nasal reconstruction and correction, HA fillers provide a minimally invasive alternative with immediate results and a low morbidity rate. This study aimed to evaluate the proposed non-surgical rhinoplasty algorithm, which focuses on the correction of 4 specific anatomic points, by assessing aesthetic outcomes, patient satisfaction, and associated complications. Horizontal and vertical sagittal stability were monitored using profilometric Arnett analysis, focusing on measurements of the Nasion (Na), Rhinion (Rh), Pronasion (Prn), and Subnasal (Sn). The application of the 4 anatomic point treatment algorithm demonstrated significant improvements in nasal profile and overall facial harmony. This technique offers a safe and effective solution, avoiding the challenges associated with surgical interventions, such as scarring and general anesthesia, while ensuring high patient satisfaction.
