Advancing the Era of Liquid Rhinoplasty: A Methodological Approach to Injection Protocols.
Article in Aesthetic plastic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundLiquid rhinoplasty, a non-surgical procedure using hyaluronic acid (HA) to reshape and refine the nose, has gained in popularity as an alternative to traditional surgical rhinoplasty although its results are not definitive. However, the lack of standardized injection protocols has raised concerns about treatment consistency and patient safety.
objectivesIn this article, the authors propose a systematic protocol for the most common indications of liquid rhinoplasty.
methodsBy adopting a standardized methodology, healthcare professionals can enhance patient safety, improve treatment consistency, and optimize patient satisfaction.
resultsThe protocol includes standardized injection sites categorized as dorsal, paramedian, tip and endonasal injections. Specific injection areas are recommended for different nasal shapes such as droopy noses, dorsal humps, nasal saddle deformity, inverted V deformity, tip shape abnormalities, twisted noses, revision cases with dorsal irregularities, and internal nasal valve dysfunction. While variations in filler dosages may be necessary based on individual patient needs, a conservative approach is recommended to maintain natural-looking results and reduce the risk of complications.
conclusionsThe increase in non-surgical techniques for nasal refinement offers patients more options, and systematized injection protocols based on different nasal types provide a structured framework for liquid rhinoplasty.
