Abstract

Background: Nose implant procedure is one of the most common aesthetic surgeries that can be performed, but patients frequently experience complications like scar contracture that’s quite bothersome. Numerous treatment approaches have been attempted, most notably with the Poly-L-lactic Acid Filler (PLLA) which seems to offer some promise. In this paper, we will attempt to assess the use of PLLA filler in surgically correcting scar contractures associated with nose implant surgery, this study aims to explore the application effect of Poly-L-lactic Acid Filler in surgical repair of scar contraction after nasal implant surgery and provide some reference value for relevant research. Case Presentation:  nose implant procedure is one of the most common aesthetic surgeries that can be performed, but patients frequently experience complications like scar contracture that’s quite bothersome. Numerous treatment approaches have been attempted, most notably with the Poly-L-lactic Acid Filler (PLLA) which seems to offer some promise. In this paper, we will attempt to assess the use of PLLA filler in surgically correcting scar contractures associated with nose implant surgery. Conclusion: It is highly suggested that PLLA Filler is a valid treatment option for scar contracture repair enhancement after nasal implant procedures. However, it’s best practice to verify long-term results on larger sample sizes.
