Fillers Around the Nose

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this paper is to review the fillers around the nose. Methods: The literature search was performed at the PubMed and Proquest Central database of the Kirikkale University Library. Results: Characteristics of an ideal dermal filling material would be low cost, high safety, not causing pain during filling, provoking few sensitivity reactions and being durable. The material should allow reproducible results that are in line with expectation and produce a natural texture, be quick to use, be operation-ready, not cause the patient to need to convalesce and rarely cause complications. Nasal contour remodeling using fillers has several advantages: there is a brief recovery period, a general anesthetic is not needed and ecchymosis does not occur. There are a lot of filler materials, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, Polymethylmethacrylate with Bovine Collagen, Poly-L-Lactic Acid, calcium hydroxylapatite and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. Conclusion: It is absolutely essential to choose carefully appropriate material and procedure for patients to obtain optimum results.
