general description
Nasal contouring involves the injection of fillers into certain areas of the organ.
Fillers are special natural or synthetic substances that are used to correct problem areas of the face and body, as well as for rejuvenation. They are injected subcutaneously and act as fillers.
The procedure is aimed at modeling the shape of the nose, helping to get rid of pits and scars, etc. You cannot change the size of your nose.
The effect depends on the chosen drug and lasts from 12 months to 4 years. After the expiration of the period, you can make a second adjustment. During this period, you need to take care of your nose and prevent it from being injured. If additional correction is required, it is carried out no earlier than 2 weeks later.

- crooked nose, hump;
- wide or thick nose, hooked shape;
- there is a depression in place of the nasal septum;

Nasal muscle workout
Bartsok-gymnastics course for the face
To prepare and perform the exercises, you need a mirror, attention, and clean hands. To learn how to perform the exercises correctly, without the risk of harming yourself, you will need 15-20 minutes. Performing the exercises in the future will take no more than 1 minute or one and a half minutes each using audio support.
What these exercises can help you do:
- raising or preventing the descent of the tip of the nose, eliminating its expansion and the formation of humps on the nose;
- reduction of the nasolabial fold and smoothness of the skin above the upper lip;
- improving breathing through the nose, preventing runny nose and colds.
The exercises are done in an isometric form: muscle strengthening occurs without stretching the skin.
The nasal muscles are rarely involved in facial expressions; they narrow or widen the nostrils and hold the skin of the nose. The nasal muscle located in the wings of the nose is paired and has a common tendon running through the center of the nose. Going down from the tendon, the muscles are woven into the skin of the lateral surface of the nose. The inner part of the nasal muscle is woven into the orbicularis oris muscle. The nasalis muscle lowers the wings of the nose, narrowing the nostrils. The nostrils are also narrowed by a small muscle that lowers the nasal septum. The opposite is true for the anterior and posterior muscles that dilate the nostrils. The mobility of all these muscles is ensured by their connection with the skin of the nose and surrounding areas.
As facial muscles, the muscles of the nose, depending on the type of face and the work of other facial muscles, are capable of giving the face a whole range of expressions from kind to extremely irritated.
But these muscles are rarely used. The weakening of the muscles of the nose disrupts its respiratory function and shape, the nose lengthens, its tip descends and widens. Slipping of the skin associated with the nasal muscles deepens the nasolabial fold and disrupts the smoothness of the skin above the upper lip.
Regularly performing simple exercises will make the muscles of the nose stronger, prevent drooping of the tip of the nose, restore or maintain its normal position, prevent slipping of the skin of the nose and deepening of the nasolabial fold, stimulate blood circulation and the flow of oxygen to the area of the nose and upper lip, significantly improve your breathing and control. .
Exercise 1. For the nasal muscle and the muscle that lowers the nasal septum.
Preparing for the exercise.
Pull the tip of your nose down. If you do this hard enough, your nostrils will flatten and you will feel tension under your nose (above your upper lip). The tip of the nose will drop slightly. This is the first movement.
To control the second movement you will need a mirror. Feel the tension on the wings of your nose. To do this, open your mouth slightly and pull your upper lip down. The mouth should be slightly open so that in the mirror you can see that no folds have formed in the corners of the mouth. The forehead and eyebrows should also not work. In order for the muscles to become stronger, they must be regularly tensed as much as possible and then completely relaxed.
Exercise.
Place your index finger on the tip of your nose. At the same time as you inhale, pull down with all your strength both your lower lip and the tip of your nose, which will press on your finger. The finger should prevent the tip of the nose from lowering, but not lift it, that is, press on the nose with the same force with which the nose presses on the finger. Hold the tension for 6 seconds, then, as you exhale, completely relax the muscles.
Repeat the exercise 4-5 times with an interval of 2-3 seconds between tensions.

Exercise 2. For the muscles that dilate the nostrils.
This is, at the same time, a breathing exercise that improves breathing through the nose and prevents colds. Look at yourself in the mirror. Flare your nostrils as far as you can. Feel the tension under your nose (above your upper lip) and in the center of the nasolabial fold. The skin above the nostrils will rise slightly. Place your index fingers on these places and press lightly on the skin, not allowing it to lift. Dilate your nostrils as you inhale to increase tension in your nasal muscles. Hold the tension for 6 seconds, then exhale, release the tension and move your fingers away from the skin.
Please note that no other facial muscle should tense at the same time. Especially the levator labii superioris muscle, as well as the muscles of the forehead, eyebrows and lips.
Feel how much freer your breath becomes as your nostrils widen, and how the skin of your nose and around it warms as your muscles relax. By improving local blood circulation in this way, you activate the work of the nasal mucosa, and it will be more difficult for you to catch a cold.

Drugs and costs
To correct defects and the shape of the nose, two types of fillers are used in cosmetology.
- With hyaluronic acid - dense fillers in the form of a gel. They are more popular because... the body accepts them well and does not reject them, and over time they completely biodegrade (are eliminated on their own).
- Based on calcium hydroxyapatite. The effect of use lasts many times longer, but they require great professionalism - if administered incorrectly, the consequences are very serious.
Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):
Incorrect administration or overdose of hydroxyapatite can lead to the growth of cartilage tissue and the formation of hard bone callus, which can only be removed surgically.
Popular drugs:
- Radiesse (Germany) - about 8,000 rubles. The base is calcium hydroxyapatite. The effect lasts up to 2 years.
- Yvoire volume s (Korea) - about 4,500 rubles. The base contains sodium hyaluronate. The effect lasts from 9 months to a year.
- Austrian filler Princess Volume - about 3,600 rubles. The basis is concentrated hyaluronic acid. The effect lasts up to one year.
- Dense filler Surgiderm 30 XP (Corneal) with hyaluronic acid - about 8,500 rubles. The effect lasts from one to one and a half years.
- Swedish drug Restylane Perlane with a dense texture based on sodium hyaluronate - about 7,000 rubles. Efficiency - from one to two years.

Evgenia Baglyk is an instructor in face-building, facial gymnastics that works with muscles. It allows you to make your face fit and youthful. Facebook building acts on the problem from the inside. The blood supply to the face improves, the skin is smoothed, wrinkles disappear, and a clear contour of the cheekbones and chin is modeled. In the video, Evgeniya explains in detail how to work with the muscles of the nose.
It is no secret that the nose lengthens and widens with age, losing its former shape and tone, because... the muscles of the cheeks weaken and sag, the subcutaneous fat layer around the wings of the nose thins, and gravity inexorably pulls our nose to the ground. Therefore, exercises to train the tiny nasal muscles located under the nostrils are recommended to strengthen and improve its shape, even in the absence of obvious problems with the nose, to keep the nose young, strong, straight and beautiful.
Nose exercises can also reduce a large nose, make a wide nose more graceful, and even correct a crooked nose, and make a hump on the nose less noticeable.
To prepare and perform the exercises, you need a mirror, attention, and clean hands. To learn how to perform the exercises correctly, without the risk of harming yourself, you will need 15-20 minutes. Performing the exercises in the future will take no more than 1 minute.

How does the procedure work?
Preparation
During the consultation, the cosmetologist conducts an examination and gives recommendations on choosing a filler and calculates the amount.
A week before the procedure, the patient must:
- take an antiviral drug if you are prone to herpetic rashes;
- do not drink alcoholic beverages;
- Do not deep cleanse your face and do not use cosmetics containing aggressive ingredients.
Before carrying out, you need to make sure the quality of the filler. To do this, you need to check the availability of the certificate and the expiration date. It is better to purchase the product from a reputable manufacturer.
Stages
The duration of the session is no more than 40 minutes. The number of injections is about 5 pieces, the filler consumption is 0.5-1 ml (indicators depend on the extent of the problem area).
The procedure goes as follows:
- Cleansing the skin of makeup.
- Antiseptic treatment.
- Applying numbing cream (optional). When the anesthesia begins to take effect, the cream is removed with cotton wool and the antiseptic treatment is repeated.
- The filler is injected into strictly designated areas. The introduction is carried out using a cannula - a special needle. It allows you to perform the procedure painlessly, without injuring blood vessels and nerve endings. After each puncture, the doctor distributes the drug using pressing movements.
- After the injections, treatment with an antiseptic is carried out.
- The patient is given a filler passport with the name, expiration date and volume.
Usually the procedure is painless, but the patient may feel a slight tingling and a feeling of “fullness.”
If your nose is like a potato
A nose of such a funny shape in childhood can give a special charm to a face. With age, girls try in every possible way to correct this natural feature. A special technique for making up your nose with potatoes will allow you to visually correct its shape.
How it's done:
- We apply a base identical to the natural complexion.
- Using a stick half a tone lighter, draw a neat line along the back of the nose, not reaching the tip. We perform shading, adding highlighter vertically.
- Using a corrector 1 tone darker than the base, moving from the inner border of the eyebrows, we process the sides, wings and tip. Darkening the nostrils visually creates the effect of narrowing the wide nasal wings. To make the makeup look organic, first lighten the back of the nose.
The photo below shows potato nose makeup before and after.
If you need to narrow your nose and correct its unaesthetic shape, use another technique: using a wide brush, draw the inner boundaries of the eyebrows, visually reducing the distance between them. This technique will visually narrow the bridge of the nose and reduce the width of the nose. All you have to do is apply a bright make-up and no one will notice your natural feature.
The video tutorial will allow you to clearly study the contouring technique.
Healing period
In the first hours after the session, slight redness and swelling at the puncture sites are possible. They pass during the day.
For 3-5 days, it is not recommended to use decorative cosmetics and press or press on the injection sites.
Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):
Before fixing the filler, especially those based on hydroxyapatite, it is undesirable to displace it. If this happens, which can be seen in the mirror or felt under the skin, you need to contact the cosmetologist who injected the filler. On the first day everything is easy to fix, then it will be more difficult.
Until complete healing, the skin is treated with an antiseptic.
For a week you need to give up:
- from visiting the sauna, solarium, swimming pool;
- from strong physical exertion (the most important thing is not to bend forward);
- from cosmetic procedures and hardware therapy;
- from taking a hot shower and bath.
Precautionary measures
Side effects
The consequences that are considered normal are:
- minor bruising;
- swelling;
- mild pain at the injection sites;
- hematomas.
If the listed symptoms occur, the doctor may prescribe painkillers and a remedy for hematomas. Normally, mild side effects go away within 2-7 days.
The risk of serious complications persists for up to two weeks after the procedure. It can be:
- allergic reaction;
- infection or development of an inflammatory process due to violation of treatment rules by the patient;
- vascular blockage, necrosis;
- gel migration due to the introduction of a low-quality drug.

How to make your nose smaller at home
Every girl, when applying makeup, is guided by the rule: to emphasize the advantages of her appearance and to disguise the shortcomings. But not everyone knows whether it is possible to reduce the nose without surgery and how to do it. In order to visually change facial features without plastic surgery, you will need simple tools that every beauty has in her arsenal. To make this part of the face look miniature, you need foundation in three different shades.
Instructions on how to visually reduce your nose:
- First of all, you need to apply the foundation all over your face (a shade that matches your skin tone). Distribute the cream evenly.
- Apply a light tinting agent to the bridge of the nose, and the darkest of the prepared ones on the sides.
- When making makeup, it is very important to make the transitions from light to dark tones smooth (contrasting stripes are unacceptable).
- Differences in shades are hidden using natural-colored powder (to match your skin tone).
- For greater effect, it is recommended to apply a little blush to the tip.
However, there are still factors that influence visual form that should be considered. For example, eyebrows can draw attention to themselves if they are made expressive. To do this, you need to make them the correct shape, with clear boundaries. Eyebrows that are too thick or, conversely, thread-like will have a negative impact on your look. Cheeks, lips, eyes do not need to be highlighted too brightly if you want to correct a large nose. Light-colored shadows and soft lip gloss (which you use for makeup every day) in this case will be the best option.

Wing reduction
Makeup artists have a secret on how to visually reduce a wide nose using makeup. To do this, you need to draw a thin line along the back of this part of the body. On the sides, on the contrary, use a dark-colored tinting agent. There should be no contrasting sharp transitions from the sides to the center. Using a sponge, blend the product, removing excess. The final step is to powder your face. Some girls draw attention to their eyes by distributing the shadows so that they are dark on the upper eyelid (in the corners).
How to reduce the tip
Visually narrowing the wide part of the face is not the only problem for women. Sometimes, for example, the fair sex is concerned about an elongated, sharp (too long) nose. For visual shortening, a dark shade of foundation is applied to the tip and sides. Additionally, you can line the lower eyelids with richly colored shadows. Narrow eyebrows are another assistant for girls who are faced with such a defect. Bright lipstick on your lips will distract attention to yourself, so you should use this technique too.

How to hide a hump
Not everyone is delighted with the hump of this part of the body. More often than not, girls try to get rid of it by any means. To ensure that it does not distort its shape and introduce disharmony into your image, you will need a few minutes of time and a light foundation (a couple of shades lighter than your skin color). The product is applied to the tip and sides, and the hump itself is tinted with a darker cream.
Opinion of cosmetologists
The opinions of cosmetologists regarding rhinoplasty of the nose are divided. Some consider the procedure to be a good alternative to surgery for eliminating minor defects. Others say that the procedure gives temporary results and is ineffective in solving serious problems.
As for drugs, doctors approve fillers based on hyaluronic acid. Many cosmetologists are wary of injections based on Diprospan, declaring the seriousness of the consequences, which surgeons have to solve.
