This is a non-incisional nose correction procedure that uses hyaluronic acid fillers to raise a low nose bridge and refine the line.
Nose filler is a non-surgical procedure that involves injecting hyaluronic acid filler between the bridge and tip of the nose to raise a low bridge and smooth the forehead-nose line. While it allows for immediate changes without incisions and offers a quick recovery, the nose is an area where the practitioner's skill and safety are particularly critical due to the high density of blood vessels.
It is suitable for cases where the nasal bridge is low or the forehead-nose connection is sunken, when you want to supplement the nasal bridge non-surgically because you are hesitant about surgery, or when you desire fine line correction.
Hyaluronic acid filler is injected in small amounts along the bridge of the nose to create height and a defined line. Since excessively raising the tip of the nose increases the risk of spreading and vascular complications, the procedure is performed conservatively, focusing primarily on the bridge.
The bridge of the nose becomes higher immediately upon injection and lasts for about 9 to 18 months. Since it is a dissolvable filler, a major advantage is that it can be reversed using a dissolving agent (hyaluronidase) if you are not satisfied.
The nose has many blood vessels, so if filler blocks a blood vessel, rare but serious side effects such as skin necrosis and vision loss can occur; therefore, it is crucial that the procedure be performed by medical professionals proficient in anatomy. The appropriate amount is maintained to prevent the filler from spreading sideways and widening the nasal bridge.
Nose fillers provide a temporary enhancement to raise the bridge of the nose without incisions, whereas rhinoplasty creates a permanent change in shape using implants or cartilage. Surgery is more advantageous for changing the shape of the nose tip.
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved by dissolving agents, making them relatively easy to reverse.
Yes, it is possible. Many dermatology and plastic surgery clinics in Korea treat foreign patients, and there are also many hospitals that offer consultations or interpretation support in foreign languages such as English, Chinese, and Japanese. On K-Dia, you can compare hospital information and real reviews, and consult directly via chat before your visit.
You can usually return to your daily routine on the same day, and there is almost no recovery period (bruising is possible). If you are traveling for a short time, it is recommended to schedule your trip with ample time to check your progress immediately after the procedure, and to discuss post-return care methods and precautions with the hospital in advance.
Costs vary significantly depending on the hospital, the scope of the procedure, the equipment and materials used, and the anesthesia method. Since Korea has a well-developed infrastructure for procedures, making consultations and price comparisons relatively easy, it is recommended to compare quotes from multiple hospitals rather than relying on just one. You can check event prices and actual reviews by hospital on K-Dia.
