Nose Filler Safety

Nose Filler Safety at Your Local Medi Spa in Calgary

Nose filler procedures have become increasingly popular in recent years as a non-surgical method for those looking to alter the shape and size of their nose. However, with any cosmetic procedure, safety should always be a top priority, especially when it concerns a facial area such as the nose. Because your nose should be an area that receives professional attention at any certified medi spa in Calgary, it is always recommended to take precautions before you pursue a nose filler procedure to ensure safety and optimal results. 

Discover the safety aspects you should heed when getting a nose filler procedure, including the potential risks and how to minimize them.

What is a Nose Filler Procedure?

A nose filler procedure involves injecting a filler substance, such as hyaluronic acid, into the nose to correct and refine its shape or size. The procedure is non-surgical and tolerable. The results are typically last over 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and how the client metabolizes filler.  

Risks Associated With Nose Filler Procedures

As with any medical procedure, there are risks associated with getting a nose filler procedure. The most common risks include bruising, swelling, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. These side effects are usually temporary and will go away within a few days.

However, if these procedures are done by a very experienced, highly qualified and extensively trained registered nurse, nurse practitioner or medical doctor, there are also more serious risks associated with nose filler. This includes blindness in rare cases. Infection can occur if the injection site is not properly cleaned or if the filler substance is contaminated, which can become more of a pronounced risk when you undergo this procedure from an uncertified and unreputable source. 

How to Minimize Risks

While there are risks associated with nose filler procedures, there are also steps that can be taken to minimize these risks. It is important to choose a highly qualified and a very experienced injector with the proper credentials and certifications who has a good understanding of facial anatomy and the injection technique. The injector should also use sterile equipment and follow proper injection protocols to minimize the risk of infection.

Before the procedure, the patient should also disclose any allergies they may have to the injector. This will allow the injector to choose a filler substance that is safe for the patient. During the procedure, the injector should use a technique called the “slow push” to inject the filler substance slowly and carefully, minimizing the risk of accidentally injecting it into a blood vessel.

After the procedure, the patient should avoid touching or rubbing the injection site, as this can increase the risk of infection. They should also avoid strenuous exercise or activities that increase blood flow to the face for at least 24 hours after the procedure.

Who should not get a nose filler procedure?

While nose filler procedures are generally safe, there are certain groups of people who should not get this procedure. This includes pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with a history of autoimmune disease or bleeding disorders, and those with a history of allergic reactions to filler substances.

Additionally, those who have had previous nasal surgery may not be good candidates for nose filler procedures, as the filler substance may interfere with the structure of the nose or cause complications.

Conclusion

In conclusion, getting a nose filler procedure can be a safe and effective way to enhance the shape or size of your nose without surgery. However, as with any medical procedure, there are risks associated with the procedure. To minimize these risks, it is important to choose a qualified and experienced injector, disclose any allergies to the injector, and follow proper aftercare instructions, which can be easily found at your local medi spa in Calgary at Juvea Aesthetics. Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of autoimmune disease or bleeding disorders or have had previous nasal surgery may not be good candidates for this procedure. As always, it is essential to consult with a qualified medical professional before undergoing any cosmetic procedure in the facial region.
