What Is Injection Rhinoplasty Toronto?
As you may be aware, rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to alter the nose. It is usually done to change the structure or form of the nose.
Injection rhinoplasty is a non-invasive procedure that involves injecting dermal fillers into select areas of the nose. These fillers are usually a hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite, and judicious use of them allows plastic surgeons to fill in areas of the nose, lessen the appearance of nasal bridge bumps or alter the angle of the tip of a nose.. Injection rhinoplasty is also a useful technique to use with patients who want to alter their appearance, but want to make sure they will be happy with the outcome before undergoing a more permanent procedure. During the injection rhinoplasty procedure, an anesthesiologist will apply either a topical anesthetic or a local anesthetic to your nose. Most plastic surgeons prefer the topical anesthetic, which is usually applied as a cream. Once the area has been numbed, the plastic surgeon will use a syringe that has been sterilized to inject the filler into the deep subcutaneous tissues. Depending on the amount of work involved, most injection rhinoplasty procedures are completed in about a half hour. Injection rhinoplasty was first performed in the late 1800s, when doctors were looking to correct a nasal deformity. At first, they used liquid paraffin, although most doctors soon found better filler material. Today, injection rhinoplasty uses only the most state-of-the-art fillers to give thousands of patients a nose that truly reflects who they are.

“Injection Rhinoplasty Toronto may be a good choice for patients who are anxious about having surgery and want to see how changes will look before committing to a more permanent change,” says Dr. Solomon. “I also help patients who would like subtle enhancements after Rhinoplasty Surgery, as well as patients who are thinking about Revision Rhinoplasty and want to test how the changes could look before they commit to a surgery decision.”
Dr. Solomon is a skilled expert who has treated patients from all different ethnic backgrounds in his Toronto Rhinoplasty clinic. “The goal of Rhinoplasty is to consider different facial features and create harmony within the total facial appearance, not to create a Caucasian look,” says Dr. Solomon. Injection fillers offer a temporary alternative, giving Asian Rhinoplasty and African American Rhinoplasty patients an idea of how enhancements to the nasal bridge could look without committing to permanent surgical changes.
Injection rhinoplasty’s greatest strength just might lie in its ability to subtly alter the contours of your nose to improve your facial aesthetics. This includes not only filling in depressions and small divots on the nose, but also smoothing out nasal bumps. Injection rhinoplasty has also proven to be useful to patients who have noses that are crooked or twisted, including people whose noses have been broken and healed poorly. It can also help alter your nose tip, either by refining it or lifting it up. Despite the versatility of injection rhinoplasty, the procedure does have some limitations. One limitation is that it cannot make your nose smaller. If you are looking to decrease the nose size, you must get a traditional rhinoplasty procedure. A traditional rhinoplasty procedure may be for you if you want to correct certain medical conditions that can only be corrected through a surgical procedure inside the nose. Dr. Solomon will need to ensure you’re a good candidate for injection rhinoplasty. In order to be considered a good candidate. The good news is that all of them are pretty straightforward. For instance, you need to be physically healthy as well as old enough as your nose should have reached its adult size. This is usually around the time you are in your teens anywhere between the ages of 14- 19 years of age and is considered on a case by case basis. This is because a face that is still going through changes can alter the outcome of an injection rhinoplasty procedure in ways that are difficult to predict.
