Fat Grafting to touch up rhinoplasty

Filed under: Rhinoplasty — Tags: , — Dr. Edward D. Buckingham, M.D. @ 9:15 pm

Nora,

The answer is it would depend.  I have done fat grafting for a nose on one occasion and it worked quite well, but it was a generalized depression from an injury and not a rhinoplasty defect.  We would just have to look at your concerns and decide whether fat grafting would be an option.  I have also used Restylane for post rhinoplasty defects.  It works quite well, and while you do have to repeat the treatment it lasts about a year.  Let us know if we can help you further.
