What to do if the nose bridge is too low

Perhaps people generally have such a problem in life, that is, they think their nose bridge is too low. Compared with a low nose bridge, a high nose bridge can make the facial features more three-dimensional and make people look more energetic. When faced with the situation of a low nose bridge, people also have many ways to change it, among which rhinoplasty surgery is very common, which includes nose bridge refilling, silicone injection, etc. The following is a detailed introduction on what to do if the nose bridge is too low.

There are three common methods of rhinoplasty for low nose bridge:

The first one is traditional and is still considered a more reliable method, which is to implant your own tissue (bone or cartilage) into the bridge of the nose to fill the bridge of the nose. This surgical method involves two parts of the body. First, cut a piece of bone or cartilage (such as ribs, ilium, etc.) from the body, and then perform necessary carving according to the needs of the nose. After that, make incisions in the nostrils or on the columella and nose wings, and separate the subcutaneous tissue of the nose tip and bridge along the design plan to form a tunnel. After proper hemostasis, the carved bone or cartilage tissue is implanted into the subcutaneous tunnel. After the shape and appearance are trimmed to your satisfaction, the incision can be sutured, and then the implanted bone or cartilage is fixed with impression glue. The satisfactory effect can be achieved by removing the stitches after 7 days.

The second method is rhinoplasty using allogeneic tissue implants or artificially synthesized high molecular compounds instead of autologous bone or cartilage tissue implants. The material is allogeneic bone tissue, such as cartilage tissue cut from a calf's nose. At present, the most commonly used polymer material at home and abroad is solid silicone rubber. The use of these allogeneic bones or substitutes for nose augmentation surgery can greatly reduce the pain of the patient. The materials are cheap and easy to obtain, the shaping is convenient and beautiful, and most people will not have a rejection reaction, so it is popular among the public. However, it is worth pointing out that a very small number of people will experience redness and swelling after implanting foreign tissue or silicone rubber, or even difficulty in wound healing, which will eventually lead to rejection, requiring another surgery to remove the implant. Therefore, people with allergic constitutions need to take rhinoplasty surgery seriously and not do it lightly to avoid causing pain.

The third method for a low nose bridge is injectable rhinoplasty. This type of surgery is now being performed in many places. The material used for the injection is usually liquid silicone rubber. This method has the advantages of simple operation, less pain, and more beautiful shaping. In addition, it can achieve the purpose of beauty without surgery, so it is popular among people. Everything has its duality. After this method became popular in China for a while, many problems also arose. For example, after injection, the silicone rubber may not solidify completely, causing spherical deformation and making the nose shape ugly. What's worse, it may cause allergic reactions of the skin, skin erosion and perforation. Therefore, its application is subject to certain restrictions. Especially in rhinoplasty, because there is less subcutaneous tissue and thinner skin at the bridge of the nose, once the skin breaks, scars will be formed. As a result, instead of achieving beauty treatment, scars will be left behind, causing lifelong pain.
