    I had my Rhino in March and I have my first fillers in November. I just had my second treatment of silikon, and already see a huge improvement. You don't see the results until a month out, but I am happy with the results so far. I think I might need one more treatment (although she didn't think so - so she isn't trying to SELL you)... but I will wait and see in a month or so. For the cost ($800.00) it's def worth it rather than revision surgery.

    Make sure if you do it, you do it with someone who does the droplet technique... basically they put small VERY conservative drops in. Which means you will most likely need a second injection, but at least you aren't over filled and can see the results a month or so later to see if you need more.

    I did not have any injections in my tip... but slightly above my tip and then at the top of the bridge. I never noticed anything different that day or any day after. I had swelling after the injection from the needle but that was gone in a day, and you couldn't even notice. No one even knew I had it done including my other half : ) I can't even tell it's there. It took prob a good 3-4 weeks before I even noticed the gain in volume in my nose at all. The top of my nose feels a little harder when I touch it but nothing that I can feel unless I touch.

    Don't go for a revision. Just go for the filler! It's so worth it in my opinion. I had volume loss on one side of my nose (which is normal) and the permanent filler has been GREAT. My doctor used Silikon 1000, and now over a month later I am finally seeing changes and results that I REALLY like. It takes a little while for your natural collagen to form around the filler. I read the horror stories about it too... but I think there are more positive stories. I really like the way it made me look. I am going to eventually get another injection to make it even more even when I have the money but I am happy right now with how I look. It's a bit pricey. My own doctor who did the injections had silikon injected after her rhinoplasty years ago and she looks great.

    I am glad to hear you had good luck with Dr. Fechner. After my intitial surgery I went to another surgeon to get Silikon put into my nose due to volume loss. Had I known then what I know now, I never would have done it. I also lost some volume under my eyes and I think Rhino aged me about 5 years. I hope that after all is said and done a third surgery will fix everything for you. You seriously looked absolutely beautiful before.
