The hyaluronic acid injection rhinoplasty process involves three steps: material selection, anesthesia, and shaping. The procedure must be performed in a sterile operating room, as the sterility management directly impacts safety and recovery outcomes. Local anesthesia is sufficient for this procedure. For individuals sensitive to anesthesia, intravenous anesthesia can be added as an option.
It is crucial to emphasize that the surgeon's aesthetic judgment and technique play a vital role. Before the hyaluronic acid hardens, the surgeon must skillfully sculpt the desired nasal shape. This allows for immediate shaping of the nose. Otherwise, the hyaluronic acid will solidify rapidly within the nose, potentially compromising the sculpting results.
Specifically, the procedure can be broken down into the following steps:
1. Cleanse the treatment area (1-2 minutes).
2. Apply topical anesthetic to the treatment area; wait 15 minutes.
3. Disinfect the treatment area (1-2 minutes).
4. Inject the filler (15-30 minutes).
5. After injection, the doctor evenly massages and compresses the injection site to sculpt the desired nose shape (3-5 minutes).
