Anatomical consideration and techniques in thread nose augmentation with mesh scaffold implant

Introduction Non-surgical rhinoplasty has evolved with the introduction of volumizing threads, which offer a less invasive alternative to traditional methods by enhancing nasal contours while minimizing filler use.

description Introduction Non-surgical rhinoplasty has evolved with the introduction of volumizing threads, which offer a less invasive alternative to traditional methods by enhancing nasal contours while minimizing filler use. This technique is gaining popularity, particularly in Southeast Asia, due to its shorter recovery time, reduced risk profile, and ability to prevent the ‘Avatar nose’ effect. However, there is limited anatomical guidance available for its application, especially in the Asian population.Materials and Methods This study analyzes the anatomical layers of the nose to guide the proper placement of volumizing threads. Three cases are presented, highlighting different approaches to nasal bridge enhancement, nasal tip augmentation, and combined use of threads and fillers. The placement of threads in the deep fat layer beneath the fibromuscular layer was emphasized to avoid vascular complications.Results The cases demonstrated with mesh thread (Tess Inc., Korea) successful outcomes with well-defined nasal contours and patient satisfaction. The techniques used allowed for precise enhancements while minimizing risks associated with superficial thread placement and vascular injury.Conclusion Volumizing threads provide an effective and safe method for non-surgical rhinoplasty, particularly when informed by a thorough understanding of nasal anatomy. The results support the growing use of this technique in esthetic practice, especially in regions like Southeast Asia.
