Terrible Scarring from an Open Rhinoplasty? (photo)

November 5, 2012
Asked By:SeeYA

I had an open rhinoplasty done about 6 years ago. I went back to my surgeon about 2 years later bc the scars were very noticeable but my doctor said he couldn't see what I was talking about. I left pissed off bc I know you can see the scars. I've tried everything from silicon sheet to rubbing the scars with vitamin E. Everyone can tell I had a nose job from the obivious scars. Would injectable fillers solve my issue or would I need to get scarrevison and if so what would be the average cost?
