Artefill Nose Job Question

Hi Dr. I am considering have artefill put in the bridge of my nose for a rather large divet from skin cancer. When I went into a facility that used fillers I was told that because the skin on the bridge of my nose was so thin that I COULD have like a irritated reaction to the Artefill and they suggested a possible fat transfer. I obviously would have the allergy test done. If all went well with that, is it still possible I could have some kind of a reaction on the bridge of my nose. Possible redness or broken capillaries or something? Thanks much



hi,
well, it depends on how thin is thin.
i have to doubt that you are in much danger from artefill. i usually inject it very superficially and i have not had any problems. if they take it easy, injecting small amounts over 3 or 4 sessions spaced about a month apart, you should be ok. that's how i do it.
if you get some redness or broken capillaries, they should be able to zap them with a yag laser.
