Résumé

Nose augmentation using nonsurgical methods, including volumizing and cogged threads, has gained popularity due to its minimally invasive nature, shorter recovery times, and reduced risks compared to traditional rhinoplasty. However, there is limited literature on the use of these techniques in the Asian population. This study aims to present two successful cases of nose augmentation using volumizing and cogged threads, providing evidence of their effectiveness and demonstrating the insertion techniques through a supplementary video. Two female patients (aged 26 and 33) underwent nonsurgical nose augmentation. The first patient received volumizing threads to enhance nasal contour, while the second patient received cogged threads to refine the nasal tip and alar base. Both procedures were performed using polydioxanone (PDO) threads, with follow-ups conducted to assess the outcomes. Both patients exhibited significant improvement in nasal contour and projection, with outcomes maintained for up to 8 months post-procedure. The patients reported high satisfaction with the aesthetic results, and no complications were observed during the follow-up period. Volumizing and cogged threads offer a promising nonsurgical alternative for nose augmentation, particularly in patients seeking minimal invasiveness and natural-looking results. While the initial outcomes are positive, further research is needed to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of these techniques, especially in the Asian demographic.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Nose augmentation using nonsurgical methods, including volumizing and cogged threads, has gained popularity due to its minimally invasive nature, shorter recovery times, and reduced risks compared to traditional rhinoplasty. However, there is limited literature on the use of these techniques in the Asian population.
AIMS OBJECTIVE
This study aims to present two successful cases of nose augmentation using volumizing and cogged threads, providing evidence of their effectiveness and demonstrating the insertion techniques through a supplementary video.
PATIENTS/METHODS METHODS
Two female patients (aged 26 and 33) underwent nonsurgical nose augmentation. The first patient received volumizing threads to enhance nasal contour, while the second patient received cogged threads to refine the nasal tip and alar base. Both procedures were performed using polydioxanone (PDO) threads, with follow-ups conducted to assess the outcomes.
RESULTS RESULTS
Both patients exhibited significant improvement in nasal contour and projection, with outcomes maintained for up to 8 months post-procedure. The patients reported high satisfaction with the aesthetic results, and no complications were observed during the follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Volumizing and cogged threads offer a promising nonsurgical alternative for nose augmentation, particularly in patients seeking minimal invasiveness and natural-looking results. While the initial outcomes are positive, further research is needed to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of these techniques, especially in the Asian demographic.
