Abstract:
To explore the clinical effect of rhinoplasty with a standard 5-step injection procedure of hyaluronic acid using sharp needle in correction of deficient features of the Chinese nose. Methods Between January 2016 and December 2018, hyaluronic acid was injected with the sharp needle by a standard procedure in the anterior nasal spine, nasal columella, nasal tip, nasal root, and dorsum, as well as the junction region of nasal root and brow in 198 Chinese patients. The postoperative curative effect was analyzed, and the adverse reactions were observed. Results The nasal shape in all patients was significantly improved, obtaining the stereoscopic appearance, and satisfactory results. During a 6-month follow-up, 4 patients developed local subcutaneous congestion and bruising in the nasal dorsum after treatment, which disappeared within 2 weeks. No patients suffered from complications such as infection, embolism, necrosis, transparent nasal dorsum, and widened nasal roots. Conclusions Injection of hyaluronic acid with the sharp needle by a standard 5-step procedure is a safe technique that can effectively correct the deficient features of the Chinese nose.
