ABSTRACT

Nasal treatment with hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers is becoming a frequent aesthetic procedure because of its immediate result, no downtime and reversibility. The nasal dorsum is a region of low movement, low shear stress, high compression, tight skin and muscle over bone structure. In order to obtain and keep projection over time and to avoid lateral spread, the best choice is for HA fillers with high elasticity and medium to high cohesivity. The objective of this case is to demonstrate a long-lasting effect of non-surgical rhinoplasty with HA filler. A 24-year-old female asked for correction of a dropped nasal tip and dorsal hump. Voluma was chosen for its high elasticity and cohesivity and for its high lift capacity and relative longer duration. The patient received 0.1 mL at each of three sites: nasion, nasal dorsum and nasal tip and 0.25 mL in the right and left nasal bones.
