Home Nose Alterations Risk Severe Complications
Attempts to independently reshape the nose tip using injections and other home procedures can lead to serious complications, including tissue necrosis, vascular thrombosis, and septic infections, according to Ekaterina Demianovskaya, a doctor and expert from the 'Gemostat' laboratory, who spoke to RIA Novosti.
Consensus
- Attempting to change nose shape at home with injectables or cosmetic procedures can lead to serious health complications.
- Products marketed as 'shape correctors' typically contain peptides, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and plant extracts.
- These ingredients are safe in recommended doses and benefit the skin by hydrating and improving elasticity.
- The effects of these ingredients are limited to superficial skin layers and do not affect cartilage or bones.
- Experts recommend consulting a dermatologist or cosmetologist before using such products.
- Self-administered injections or aggressive procedures carry high risks, including tissue necrosis, thrombosis, and septic complications.
- Any serious facial interventions should only be performed by qualified medical professionals in specialized clinics.
