Is hyaluronic acid or prosthesis better for rhinoplasty

To be honest, the nose is really an important organ that determines the beauty of a person's face. If a person has a beautiful nose, other facial flaws will be ignored. However, due to regional reasons, many Asians have relatively flat noses. Therefore, rhinoplasty surgery is also popular among people. Before doing rhinoplasty surgery, there are many ways to choose. So is it better to inject hyaluronic acid or implant rhinoplasty?

Many people believe that hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty does not require surgery and does not have a long recovery period. In addition, hyaluronic acid is a substance that can be metabolized and absorbed by the human body, so hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty should be an ideal method of rhinoplasty. In fact, hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty is not the most ideal method of rhinoplasty, nor is it suitable for everyone. Although injection rhinoplasty is simple and quick, it also has many problems.

First of all, hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty is not suitable for everyone. For people with relatively good nose conditions and who do not need to adjust the shape of their nose tip, hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty can still have a certain effect. However, if there are many problems with the shape of the nose, simply injecting hyaluronic acid to lift the nose will not improve the shape of the nose.

Secondly, the duration of hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty is limited. Qualified quality hyaluronic acid can generally exist in the human body for half a year to a year, so the shape of the nose can only be maintained for about half a year to a year. If you want to maintain the shape, you must continue to inject hyaluronic acid. In addition to being uneconomical, long-term injections of hyaluronic acid can also lead to a wide nose and possibly cause hyperplasia of the nose skin (if the quality of the hyaluronic acid is unqualified). In severe cases, it can cause necrosis of the nose skin. Therefore, long-term hyaluronic acid injection for rhinoplasty is not recommended.

If you want a rhinoplasty but are unsure about the effect, you may want to inject hyaluronic acid first to see the shape and then decide to have the rhinoplasty surgery. This is fine. But it is best not to use hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty all the time.

As for prosthetic rhinoplasty, the recommended material is silicone, and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene is not recommended because the surface of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene contains microporous structures that are more prone to infection and are not as safe as silicone. In addition to prosthetic rhinoplasty materials, autologous ear cartilage and allogeneic bone can also be considered.
