Purpose Of Review: Nonsurgical rhinoplasty (NSR) continues to grow in demand and popularity. Consequently, there has been a rise in the number of reported complications. This review will summarize and discuss the current evidence for the prevention and management of adverse events related to NSR with a specific emphasis on practical clinical applications. The review is based on recent systematic reviews and multidisciplinary expert consensus recommendations.
Recent Findings: First, NSR has overall favorable outcomes with rare complications. Second, vascular compromise is a rare event, but the number of reported severe complications is rising. Third, providers should be intimately familiar with preventive measures, early signs and symptoms, and appropriate management algorithms of all possible complications. Fourth, having a readily available 'toolbox' of recommended therapies may improve timely management of emergent complications.
Summary: The number of complications associated with NSR is expected to rise congruent with the increased demand for the procedure. Although NSR has a favorable safety profile, complications can occur in the best of hands even when using appropriate risk reduction strategies. Early detection and appropriate treatment of known complications may eliminate or minimize sequelae and allow providers to continue to safely perform NSR.

A Prospective Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid Injections for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty with hyaluronic acid (HA) filler is a three-dimensional reshaping technique that achieves tissue enhancement by placing HA deep to nasal skin. Due to its unique rheology, Restylane® Lyft (HA-L, Galderma, Uppsala, Sweden) may be particularly well-suited for injection rhinoplasty, as it has high gel firmness (G') for strong structural support with minimal integration propensity. A prospective clinical trial was conducted to evaluate HA-L use for non-surgical rhinoplasty.

Background: Nonsurgical rhinoplasty (NSR) with dermal fillers has gained popularity because of its immediate and visible results, minimal downtime, and long-lasting effects. However, complications such as filler migration can lead to the development of the "Avatar nose," a condition where the nose appears unnaturally wide and bulbous in the nasion area, disrupting facial harmony. This phenomenon is often exacerbated by the presence of a taut nasofrontal ligament, which tethers the periosteum to the dermal layer and influences nasal contour.

The external nasal valve is the anatomic structure formed by the caudal septum, alar rim, medial crura of the lower lateral cartilage, and nasal sill at the level of the nasal vestibule. Evaluation of external nasal valve dysfunction is dependent upon a thorough history and physical examination. Symptoms and quality of life impact are the main drivers for patients to seek out clinical evaluation.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) injection, traditionally used for non-surgical rhinoplasty, is often associated with adverse effects such as increased nasal dorsum width. This study introduces the linear stereoscopic stack volume enhancement (LSSVE) injection technique as a solution for patients with low-profile noses, aiming to improve the nasal dorsum dimension, prevent long-term nasal widening, and address related concerns. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical registry data of patients treated at Shanghai Phiskin Clinic from December 2020 to June 2024, who received HA injections using the LSSVE technique.

Introduction: Non-surgical alternatives to rhinoplasty are gaining interest but, despite its popularity, research on the long-term psychological impact and post-rhinofiller patients' satisfaction is limited. This study evaluates patient-reported satisfaction and quality of life immediately after and 6 months post-non-surgical rhinoplasty using the FACE-Q questionnaire.
Patients And Methods: This prospective study was conducted from May 2023 to March 2024, involving 83 patients who underwent rhinofiller treatments for esthetic purposes.
