“…Ultrasound devices with the frequency range of 12–20 MHz and Doppler properties enable us to differentiate anatomic layers of the face, observe its vascular pattern, and are useful for facial aesthetic purposes 4 . Accordingly, available handheld ultrasound imaging devices on the market that mostly meet the mentioned specifications can improve the efficiency and quality of aesthetic procedures and minimize their adverse events 4–6 …”

“…Although it has been recommended to integrate ultrasound imaging in all stages of an aesthetic practice from primary assessment and treatment planning to the management of probable complications, 4–8 many aesthetic practitioners still do not believe in the use of ultrasound in their routine work and keep this technology for the management of severe complications that they may face at some point. The evolution of aesthetic medicine practice is accompanied by an increasing number of complications 4,8 .…”

BackgroundWith the increasing use of dermal injectable fillers in aesthetic medicine, the popularity of non‐surgical filler‐based rhinoplasty (NSR) is also growing. While performing this procedure might result in certain vascular complications, injecting deep into the midline of the nose is commonly considered the safest method for blind primary NSR.AimsIn this study, we challenged the common NSR method with a Doppler ultrasound study of the nose.Patients/MethodsThe vascular pattern of the common zones of the NSR procedure (radix and nasal tip) of 21 Iranian women were investigated by using a 14 MHz Doppler handheld ultrasound device (Silarious L14PS). Participants had never undergone any procedure on their nose. We focused on the depth of midline vessels in the radix and nasal tip. The radix was studied sagittally and horizontally, and the nasal tip was examined axially by ultrasound.ResultsIn the radix of eight cases (38%), at least one vessel was observed at midline, and all were superficial. In the nose tip of 18 cases (86%), at least one vessel was observed at midline, and 9 out of these 18 vessels (50%) were deep. As a result, conducting NSR by the common method in our study population was relatively safe in the radix, but there was an increased likelihood of vascular events in the tip.ConclusionOur research results show that while the common method of the NSR may carry a high risk of vascular events, the safety of this procedure could be enhanced by using ultrasound for planning and conducting a tailored treatment.
