What should I do if I got bone powder injected into my nose

Nowadays, whether in the workplace or in life, we need to "look at the face". So some women have plastic surgery to address areas of their face that are not "perfect". A common one is rhinoplasty. The traditional rhinoplasty method is to fill the nasal cavity with bone powder to achieve a "straight" effect. However, bone meal rhinoplasty is very harmful. If bone powder is injected into your nose, it is recommended that you go to a regular cosmetic hospital to have it removed.

Artificial bone powder is actually artificial bone, and its chemical name is [hydroxyapatite]. It was first used for bone defect repair, and later doctors used it for injectable rhinoplasty. That is, it is the main inorganic component of human bone tissue. Therefore, it has good biocompatibility and no side effects such as toxicity, teratogenicity, sensitization and carcinogenesis, and is widely used in dentistry and orthopedics. Since the mid-1980s, it has been used in plastic surgery such as rhinoplasty.

Among the many rhinoplasty methods, injection rhinoplasty is popular among many beauty lovers because of its simplicity, speed and convenience. Many people think that artificial bone powder is one's own tissue material, and injectable rhinoplasty should be relatively safe. In fact, this is not the case.

The doctor then uses his hands to gently press and shape the bridge of the nose during rhinoplasty. Although bone meal is in powder form, it will coagulate when it comes into contact with blood, forming the shape used for shaping during surgery. It will take 7 days after the artificial bone powder rhinoplasty surgery for the injected bone powder to crystallize and harden.

Although there is no case that artificial bone powder itself is toxic, this method of rhinoplasty has been abandoned by many doctors! The reason is that artificial bone powder does not produce a good shaping effect after plastic surgery (especially the tip of the nose), and it can easily cause various complications in people, which is very harmful to the human body.

side effect

If the injection layer of artificial bone powder is too shallow, the nose may experience symptoms such as [infection], [redness], [displacement], [inflammation], [swelling], [dizziness], [headache], etc. In severe cases, it may even cause problems such as [ulceration] of the nose!

complication

As mentioned above, it will take 7 days for the injected bone powder to crystallize and harden after artificial bone powder rhinoplasty. During this period, you must not bump your nose, otherwise the nose [shape will be deformed]. Therefore, [deviation of the nose bridge] after artificial bone powder rhinoplasty is a relatively common complication. The material may [drift], which means [change in position], [affecting the appearance].

Dangers

Uneven injection under the skin [nodules formed]

[Skin discoloration caused by too shallow injection site]

Because artificial bone powder rhinoplasty material is close to liquid, it will penetrate into the tissue gap, making it very difficult to remove.

Biggest Disadvantage

Especially for those with low nose bridge, the postoperative effect is particularly satisfactory. However, since it has no supporting function, it has a poor effect on those with low nose tips. Basically, if you are not satisfied with the rhinoplasty results, it is difficult to remove the tissue completely and cleanly. Even if the normal nasal cavity tissue and physiological structure are removed, it will be damaged, which will increase the difficulty of the next rhinoplasty operation and bring a lot of unnecessary trouble and pain to the patient.
