Nose Sculpting - how long does the treatment last?
General Information
Injection rhinoplasty is a temporary treatment based on fillers, usually hyaluronic acid, that help shape the nose without the need for surgery. The length of time the result is maintained varies depending on several factors, but is usually a period of one to two years, with differences between different patients.
Factors that affect the duration of the effect
1. Type of filler –
• Hyaluronic acid is gradually absorbed by the body, with thicker materials (such as Juvederm Voluma or Restylane Lyft) lasting longer.
• Semi-permanent materials, such as Radiesse based on calcium hydroxyapatite, may last slightly longer but are not as reversible as hyaluronic acid.
2. Patient’s metabolic rate –
A faster metabolism may break down the material faster, so in people with a high metabolism the result may last less time.
3. Lifestyle and habits –
•Smoking, excessive sun exposure and an unhealthy lifestyle can accelerate the breakdown of the material.
•Avoiding rubbing or pressing hard on the nose after the injection will help maintain the result.
4. The amount of material injected –
The larger the amount of filler injected, the longer the result may last.
5. The injection technique and the doctor’s skill –
Precise and professional injection by a skilled doctor will lead to a stable and uniform result for a longer period of time.
How can the result be maintained over time?
•Maintenance treatments – It is recommended to renew the material once a year or two depending on the absorption rate.
•Maintaining a healthy lifestyle – a balanced diet, avoiding smoking and using sunscreen reduce the breakdown of hyaluronic acid.
• Avoiding pressure on the area – rubbing or applying pressure to the nose may affect its shape after the injection.
Summary
Injection nose sculpting provides temporary but long-lasting results, usually ranging from 12 to 24 months, depending on the type of material, lifestyle and the patient’s body’s response. For optimal maintenance, it is recommended to follow up with the treating physician and renew the injection as needed.
