Nose Still Looks Crooked After Septorhinoplasty - Will Fillers Help?

I got septoplasty/rhinoplasty and my nose is still crooked. Is it scar tissue? I had rhinoplasty and septalplasty 2 years ago and I noticed over time that the tip of my nose is crooked. It leans to the right and I noticed that the left side feels "thicker" then the right. Also I can feel a little pee sized bump under the skin. My surgery was extensive and took longer then expected, plus was expensive. I really don't want to do it again. Is there anyway to fill it?

My personal preference for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty is Silikon-1000 for permanent results. If any of my colleagues wish to learn more about my experience with Silikon-1000, I am giving an instructional course in Boston at the upcoming Fall Meeting of The... more

Injection rhinoplasty can make your nose straighter.

But in many cases the improvement is less than undergoing surgery. Furthermore its temporary. Tissue fillers achieve the greatest improvement when a nose appears crooked because one side is depressed. When the bent nose is due to a shift, with one side pushed out sideways, the improvement, if possible also causes the nose to widen. Not something most people will accept. Your picture appears to show you have both problems. So, yes your nose will appear straighter with a tissue filler... more

Fillers to Treat Crooked Nose

Fillers can be used to mask the crooked appearance. You may achieve a satisfactory result. but this will be temporary. This approach may meet your immediate needs, but ask what would be necessary if you decided to  have a revision surgical procedure.
