Will getting hyaluronic acid injections in the nose make it wider?
Hyaluronic acid injection for the nose mainly involves injecting hyaluronic acid into the nasal tissue using micro-needles to increase nasal height and three-dimensionality, thereby improving the nasal contour. The general reference price for hyaluronic acid injection for the nose is 1500-5400 yuan per session, and certain improvements are typically noticeable after 1-3 months. If the procedure is properly performed and appropriate post-care is followed, the nose generally will not widen. However, if the operation is improper or post-operative care is inadequate, nasal widening may occur. If any discomfort arises, timely medical consultation is recommended.
Hyaluronic acid has excellent water-absorbing and supportive properties, and when injected into the nose, it serves to fill and shape the nasal structure. If performed at a reputable facility by an experienced physician who strictly controls the injection volume, nasal widening generally does not occur. The physician will accurately inject the appropriate amount of hyaluronic acid into the proper tissue layers, maintaining a natural nasal shape and normal width.
However, injecting excessive amounts of hyaluronic acid at one time may easily cause the hyaluronic acid to spread into surrounding tissues, making the nose appear wider—in such cases, nasal widening may occur. Additionally, repeated injections over time can subject nasal tissues to prolonged external pressure, gradually damaging elastic fibers and increasing the risk of nasal widening.
In daily life, it is recommended to properly care for the nose, maintain cleanliness, and avoid squeezing or bumping it. A light diet is also advised to aid in recovery.
