Overview
Description
Nose filler is a non-surgical way to refine the nasal profile with no incisions. At HERA it can be combined with KFDA-approved Mint Threads plus hyaluronic-acid filler to raise a low bridge and add subtle definition and projection to the tip — a smooth, lifted line at the tip that is difficult to achieve with filler alone. It is ideal for those who want a higher, more defined nose but feel hesitant about surgery, and the result is fully adjustable and reversible.
Why it works
The essentials, at a glance
Visible Height & Projection
A single session builds bridge height and tip definition for a clearer nose line.
Reversible & Adjustable
Unlike surgical rhinoplasty, the result can be fine-tuned or dissolved if needed.
No Incisions, Minimal Downtime
Threads and filler are placed without cutting, so most patients return to daily life immediately.
Treatment Areas
Treatment Areas
Each area is planned separately, based on your anatomy.
Nose Bridge
Filler raises and straightens the bridge to build a higher, cleaner nasal profile.
Nose Tip
Mint Threads with filler add subtle projection and a smoother, more defined tip line.
Nasal Radix (Glabella–Nose Junction)
Gentle volume connects the forehead-to-nose transition for a natural starting height.
Who it's for

- A naturally low or flat nasal bridge

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions international patients ask us most.
What is the difference from a filler-only nose job?
Filler alone can raise the bridge but struggles to define the tip. Combining KFDA-approved Mint Threads with filler adds tip projection and a smoother line that filler alone cannot easily create.
Is it reversible if I don't like it?
The hyaluronic-acid portion can be dissolved and adjusted. Because there are no incisions, it is a lower-commitment way to trial a nose-profile change before considering surgery.
Does it hurt and how long does it take?
A session takes about 10–15 minutes. Topical anesthesia keeps discomfort minimal, so most patients feel only mild pressure.
How long do the results last?
Results are visible immediately and typically last around 6–12 months for the filler component, varying with the product and individual metabolism.
Is there downtime or aftercare?
Downtime is minimal. Avoid pressing on the nose, wearing heavy glasses and intense heat for the first days; mild redness or swelling usually settles within a few days.
