Restylane to Fill the Crease on the Nose?
I have a really turned up nose, but I don't mind that as much as the crease RIGHT down the center. I'm very conscious of it as I model a lot and it makes a shadow in photos and ruins them!
I'm afraid to get anything permanent. I already had Botox. Is there an injectable that can round out the crease? Could an injectable cause scarring? Also, what average cost would I be looking at? Thanks.

Fillers for a bifid nasal tip.
While traditional surgical rhinoplasty provides much wider options in terms of reshaping the nose, filling in a bifid tip such as you've shown, can be a simple in-office procedure.
For non-surgical rhinoplasty, I typically start with a temporary filler such as Juvederm so that the patient can see whether they like the effect without having committed to something permanent. If they enjoy that look, then a permanent filler such as Artefill can be used.
Using temporary fillers only requires...

Crease on the nose - surgery vs. non-surgery options
This concern can be addressed surgically or non-surgically. If you elect the non-surgical route, you can start with temporary fillers - restylane/perlane or juvederm ultra/ultra plus. If you are happy with the correction, you can move on to fillers with longer duration - Radiesse, in this case.
another option would be to correct this surgically - manipulating the lower cartilages in the nasal tip, but that is a totally different alternative that is much more involved than just injecting...

The vertical crease down the center of your nasal tip may be minimized by an Injectable Filler treatment.
I think you're an excellent candidate for a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty treatment. You appear to have very thin skin, and firm tip-cartilage so you can see the vertical crease in between your two lower-lateral cartilages. Your thin-skin / firm cartilage combination makes you a challenging Rhinoplasty Surgery candidate. I would strongly suggest keeping surgery as a last resort.
I know you don't want anything permanent, but I have had excellent success correcting this crease using Silikon-1000....

Crease on nose
The crease is due to your strong cartilages that diverge causing a depression between them. Lights cast a shadow, and your photos are ruined.
Filers may be a temporary fix, you may want to look into a rhinoplasty. There are other elements about the tip that may actually enhance the beauty of your face, and therefore may be advantageous.

Restylane and Juvederm have been used to contour the nose
While non-FDA uses of Restylane and Juvederm such as filling creases in the nose have been reported they are not without risk. Specifically skin loss and prolonged healing or permanent scarring. That being said, they can in small amounts injected by an experienced surgeon help to soften some static creases as seen your picture between the domes of the lower lateral cartilage. You nose is very pretty however as it is and I would suggest that the filler may round out the tip a bit and this...

Be careful with filling crease on nose
Hi,
The "crease" that you see is the bifidity or separation between the domes of your Lower Lateral Cartilages and the reason you are seeing them is that your skin is VERY thin and the cartilages are strong -- in your situation. Every patient's anatomy is unique.
Surgically, crushed cartilage or alloderm or fascia can be placed over the area like icing on a cake to cover it. Non surgically, Juvederm or Restylane can be injected conservatively to "fill in" the area but...
