The treatment is perfect for anyone who wants to optimise the shape of their nose and wants a natural look without surgery.

The philosophy of Medical NOVA is based on the conviction that true beauty is created through the balance of body and soul. This holistic approach is also reflected in our approach to rhinoplasty. Our Practice understandsWe know that every nose shape is unique and therefore carefully analyse your individual facial anatomy before each treatment. Only through this detailed preliminary analysis can we create a customised treatment plan that leads to harmonious and natural results - without any scars or surgical procedures.

In recent years, modern hyaluronic rhinoplasty has become one of the most popular methods of rhinoplasty. most popular aesthetic treatments developed. Especially people who are interested in small Nasal humps or asymmetries benefit from the immediate and gentle correction without surgery. The method offers a scientifically proven solution for nose shapes that are perceived as unpleasant without losing their natural appearance.

What is a hyaluronic rhinoplasty?

The hyaluronic rhinoplasty is a Minimally invasive method for shaping and optimising the nose without surgery. The basis of this treatment is the targeted injection of hyaluronic acid fillers at strategic points on the nose. These fillers - specially developed gels based on the body's own hyaluronic acid - can even out humps, smooth out unevenness and lift the tip of the nose. In contrast to surgery, which removes or reshapes tissue, hyaluronic acid treatment works purely by strategically increasing volume.

Through Precise injection With hyaluronic acid, different areas of the nose can be modelled while the natural structure is fully preserved. This creates a harmonious balance that leads to a natural optimisation of the nose shape. The treatment requires a deep understanding of facial anatomy and years of experience to achieve optimal results.

The method differs fundamentally from a surgical operation or a thread lift. While surgical procedures remove or reshape tissue and lift threads mechanically, the Hyaluron correction exclusively with the natural active ingredient hyaluronic acid. The result is a gentle, natural optimisation of the nose shape without any visible traces on the face. In addition, the healing time is completely eliminated - a decisive advantage for working people compared to surgery in a clinic.

Who is a hyaluronic rhinoplasty suitable for?

A hyaluronic rhinoplasty is suitable for a Broad patient groupThe individual analysis during the consultation is crucial. The ideal candidates are people who are bothered by minor flaws in the shape of their nose but are not yet ready for a surgical procedure. Patients between the ages of 25 and 55 who want a natural optimisation of their nose shape without surgery visit us particularly frequently.

• Small to medium nasal humps on the bridge of the nose
• Unevenness or asymmetries after injuries or due to genetic causes
• Dropped or too wide nose tip
• Desire for non-surgical shape optimisation instead of surgery
• Slight indentations on the bridge of the nose
• Dissatisfaction with the natural shape or proportions of the nose

People who are bothered by minor visual "blemishes" or who have developed slight asymmetries after an injury will particularly benefit from the immediate and gentle correction through injections. Hyaluronic acid treatment can not only bring about aesthetic improvements, but also contribute to increased self-confidence and well-being.

The treatment is particularly effective in patients between the ages of 20 and 60 whose skin is still Sufficient elasticity has. The best and most natural results can be achieved in this age range.

Furthermore, hyaluronic rhinoplasty is also suitable as a Alternative to invasive procedures for patients who shy away from the surgical risks of an operation or who do not have a long period of absence from work. This gentle injection can help to resolve dissatisfaction with the shape of the nose and boost self-confidence.

Treatment procedure at Medical NOVA

The treatment of a hyaluronic rhinoplasty at Medical NOVA follows a structured, multi-stage processwhich guarantees the highest quality standards and optimum safety.

Step 1: Detailed consultation and precise profile analysis

Every rhinoplasty begins with a comprehensive consultation in our practice, which typically 30 to 45 minutes takes. Dr Tukezban Huseynova and her team not only analyse the current shape of your nose, but also your individual facial proportions, profile line and personal wishes. High-resolution photos are taken from various angles to document the initial condition and determine the optimum injection points.

During this analysis phase, we also discuss possible risks, realistic expectations and follow-up treatment. It will be clarified whether a local anaesthetic is required - although this is often not necessary, as modern Hyaluron-Filler already contains an integrated local anaesthetic included. If you are still sensitive, we can apply a gentle anaesthetic cream. This comfortable treatment method is a major advantage over surgical procedures that require a general anaesthetic.

Step 2: Professional preparation and sterile working methods

After the consultation, the face is thoroughly cleansed and disinfected. All make-up, especially in the nose area, must be removed in order to avoid Sterile working environment to ensure the best possible results. The injection sites are precisely marked, using the previously prepared treatment plan as a guide. This careful preparation is crucial for the precision of the subsequent injection.

Step 3: Precise moulding with the latest filler technology

The actual treatment takes about 20-30 minutes, but requires Maximum concentration and precision. A very fine needle or blunt cannula is used to remove the Hyaluronic acid injected at the previously marked points. The amount is customised - typically 0.5-2 ml depending on the desired correction - a crucial factor for natural-looking results. Most patients describe the feeling of the injection as a slight pressure that passes quickly.

Step 4: Immediate visibility and professional aftercare

After treatment, the Result immediately visible and you are usually able to socialise again immediately. Slight swelling or redness at the puncture sites usually disappears within a few hours. Make-up can be carefully reapplied after around 2-4 hours, although you should avoid rubbing vigorously at first.

An important part of our treatment is the Follow-up appointment after 10 to 14 days. At this point, all swelling has subsided and we can assess the final result together. If necessary, we can make fine corrections or re-treat asymmetrical areas to ensure a perfectly harmonised and natural look.

Effect & durability - what can realistically be expected?

The effect of hyaluronic rhinoplasty is immediately visible and develops naturallywhich is one of the major advantages of this method over surgery. Unlike surgical procedures, where swelling hides the final result for weeks, with hyaluronic acid treatment a clear improvement can be seen immediately after the injection. Most patients find this immediate visibility particularly satisfying.

The Durability of rhinoplasty is 12 to 18 months on average, although this period depends on various individual factors. People with a very active metabolism or strong blood circulation may notice an earlier decrease in the effect, while other patients may still notice significant effects after 18 months. It is interesting to note that an extension of the shelf life is often observed with regular treatments.

The results are, with proper application Very predictable and reproducible. Most patients are surprised at how natural the shape of their nose looks after hyaluronic correction. The profile becomes noticeably more harmonious and aesthetic without other people being able to recognise the reason for this. Many patients report that they often receive compliments about their "beautiful profile" without being asked why.

Another important aspect is the Complete reversibility of the treatment. In contrast to surgical procedures, hyaluronic rhinoplasty is completely reversible. With the enzyme hyaluronidase, the filler can be dissolved quickly and completely if necessary. If you are not satisfied with the result, which is extremely rare, the original shape of the nose can be restored.

The optimum treatment frequency is around 1-2 treatments per yearThe individual rhythm can be better assessed after the first few treatments. Many patients develop a feeling for when the effect wears off and can therefore determine the optimum time for the next treatment.

Aftercare: Important rules of behaviour for optimal results

Aftercare following a hyaluronic rhinoplasty is uncomplicated and requires only a few restrictions. Nevertheless, there are some important points to bear in mind to ensure optimal results and minimise the risk of complications. Our patients receive detailed written aftercare instructions, which we explain below.

First 24-48 hours: Gentle phase

In the first two days after treatment Special care is requiredas the hyaluronic acid is not yet fully integrated and could theoretically still "migrate". Some important rules of behaviour therefore apply during this phase:

• No rubbing, massaging or strong pressure in the nose area
• Avoid intensive sport, sauna, steam bath or solarium
• Only apply make-up after a few hours and only carefully
• For minor haematomas: gentle cooling with soft compresses
• Use sunscreen consistently for at least 2 weeks
• No facial massages or cosmetic treatments

It is particularly important in the first few hours after treatment to Do not blow your nose too hard or to touch the nose strongly. This could influence the distribution of the hyaluronic acid and lead to undesirable effects. Instead, you should move normally and carry out your usual activities, but observe the restrictions mentioned.

After a week: return to the usual routine

After only about a week all normal activities can be resumed. The hyaluronic acid is now firmly integrated and the initial healing processes are complete. If you are not completely satisfied with the interim result at this point, this is completely normal - minor swelling may persist for up to 14 days.

Also important is the Proper skin care after the treatment. Healthy, well-moisturised skin supports the integration of hyaluronic acid and ensures an even more natural appearance. We recommend the use of gentle, pH-neutral cleansing products and high-quality moisturisers. In addition Skin care treatments such as RF microneedling further improve skin quality.

If you notice any irregularities or have any questions about the development of the result, we are at your disposal at any time available. Many minor uncertainties can be clarified with a short telephone call and, if necessary, we can also arrange an additional check-up appointment.

Risks & side effects: Information and transparency

As with any medical treatment, side effects can also occur with hyaluronic rhinoplasty. However, thanks to our many years of experience and the precise application technique in our practice, these are mostly mild and temporary. We attach great importance to an honest and complete explanation of all possible risks so that you can make an informed decision.

Frequent, harmless side effects

Most of the side effects occur directly after the treatment and disappear on their own within a few hours to days:

• Slight swelling at the puncture sites - usually disappears within 2-4 hours and can be easily covered with make-up
• Temporary reddening of the skin, similar to a mild insect bite
• Small haematomas (bruises) - occur in around 10% of patients and usually subside within a week
• Slight tenderness in the treatment area for 1-3 days
• Feeling of tension or foreign body sensation, which usually subsides after a few days

These side effects are completely normal and show that the healing process has been initiated. They usually do not affect everyday life and can be treated with gentle cooling if necessary.

Rare complications: Prevention and treatment

Should vascular compression occur, there are Special emergency protocols and the possibility of immediately dissolving the filler with hyaluronidase. In most cases, however, complications can be completely avoided with the right technique and anatomical knowledge.

Contraindications: When is the treatment not suitable?

A hyaluronic rhinoplasty is not for every patient suitable. The following circumstances rule out treatment or require special precautions:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding - for precautionary reasons, hyaluronic acid treatments are generally not carried out during this time
• Acute infections at the injection site or on the face - treatment is postponed until the infection has subsided
• Autoimmune diseases or blood clotting disorders
• Known allergies to hyaluronic acid or one of the excipients
• Unrealistic expectations - if the desired results cannot be achieved with this method
• Taking certain medications - blood thinners in particular should be discontinued before treatment if possible

During the consultation, we create a Detailed anamnesis and check all potential contraindications. Your safety is our top priority, which is why we take sufficient time for this important preliminary clarification.

Alternatives to hyaluronic rhinoplasty

In the case of severe deformities or very pronounced humps, the desire to significantly reduce the size of the nose or structural problems, surgical rhinoplasty in a specialised clinic is the more effective and long-term solution.

Combination treatments for optimum harmony

These treatments work with the natural proportions of the face and can thus contribute to an overall more harmonious appearance. A combination of different procedures is often used to achieve optimal results - all without surgery in a clinic.

Improve skin quality with innovative procedures

Sometimes the problem is not the shape of the nose, but the Quality of the surrounding skin. Treatments like Mesotherapy for the face, Microneedling against wrinkles or Thulium laser treatments can significantly improve skin structure, elasticity and radiance and thus optimise the overall appearance.

When will I be able to do sports and resume normal activities?

Light activities and normal everyday life are already the day after the treatment possible. You should pause intensive training with heavy sweating for 24-48 hours, as increased blood pressure and heavy sweating could theoretically affect the integration of hyaluronic acid. After this short period of rest, you can resume all your usual activities without any restrictions. Most patients find these minimal restrictions very pleasant compared to surgical procedures in a clinic, which require weeks of healing time.

Can rhinoplasty be combined with other treatments?

Yes, the combination is not only possible, but often even particularly useful and effective. Combinations with Chin augmentation for better proportions or with Cheek augmentation for more facial harmony. The simultaneous treatment of Lips or other facial areas is very popular.

How long does the effect last and how often do I need to be treated?

The duration of action is typically 12-18 monthsindividual factors such as metabolic rate, blood circulation and lifestyle play a role.

The optimum treatment frequency is usually 1-2 treatments per year.

What happens if I am unhappy with the result?

At Medical NOVA, a Follow-up appointment after 10-14 days is a standard part of the treatment and is already included in the price.

Do I need an anaesthetic for the treatment?

Most patients require No additional anaesthesia for hyaluronic rhinoplasty, as modern fillers already contain an integrated local anaesthetic and the injections are carried out with very fine needles.

Compared to surgery, which requires a general anaesthetic, hyaluronic acid treatment is much more comfortable and less risky.

Are there any age restrictions for the treatment?

A lower age limit is around 18-20 yearsas nasal growth is not yet complete. There is no strict upper limit, but expectations should be realistic.
