What is the longest lasting nose filler?

Doctor's Answers 3

Hi

The recent increased awareness and incidence that blindness is a possible complication following filler injections to the nose has led to many doctors as well as filler companies to revise their indications for this procedure. Therefore long lasting fillers are not recommended usually.

Having said that it is still okay to have the procedure done but seek out an experienced doctor. My advise is to stick to Hyaluronic Acid Fillers for this indication, as there is a chance of reversal if complications occur.

The downside is that they typically last about 12 months although repeated touch ups at 6 - 8 months can potentially increased the longevity to 18 months

Hope this helps.

Hi there! Yes, there are fillers that last for years on the nose.

They are:

Hyaluronic acid: Teosyal Ultradeep (18 months)

Collagen stimulators: Radiesse (18 months), Ellanse (24-48 months)

Thank you!

Hi, I use HA fillers like Restylane Lyft. This gives a good definition to the nose and nose tip.It lasts about a year, not months.

Thank You

Is PRP injection available for acne scarring in Singapore?

PRP at the present moment is not available in Singapore. It does help with acne scarring though, and you might have to go to neighbouring countries to do the treatment (including Malaysia). Having said that, you can consider Rejuran/skin boosters/microneedling that can help in a similar fashion. Your 2nd question on which is better — it depends on the severity and type of scars. But usually Fractional laser is the backbone of laser therapy. So consult your doctor early to discuss the available options.
