I hope to undergo rhinoplasty in the near future, but I think I won't be fully satisfied with the results unless I also take care of the horizontal line on my nose. Not sure where it came from (maybe from wiping my nose too hard over the years?), but I'm wondering: (1) Will rhinoplasty can fix it (2) If not, what can correct it? Botox? Other fillers? (3) Should it be fixed before or after rhinoplasty? Thanks for the help!
Answer: Crease on your nose After reviewing your photos, the crease that you are referring to is due to the visible cartilage under the skin. I believe that you are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty in which the cartilage will be reshaped in order to create a more aesthetically-pleasing nose. I recommend seeking out a Board-Certified plastic surgeon who will accurately examine your nose, create a simulation that will allow you to see what your nose COULD look like after surgery, and formulate a plan tailored to your wishes. Best wishes!

This means that you could be a good candidate for rhinoplasty to correc tthis problem during the procedure. It's best to consult with a board certified surgeon in person to create a proceure plan that is best for you.

Answer: Lower lateral cartilage margin The superior margin of your lower lateral cartilage is responsible for this crease. I would recommend correcting it as part of your rhinoplasty. Any other camouflaging procedures would likely not treat it properly.

Answer: "Crease" on nose The "crease" in the nose you are referring to is due to an underlying cartilage deformity (of the lower lateral cartilage). A rhinoplasty operation can address this deformity and correct it while maintaining or even improving you nasal breathing as well as your nasal appearance overall. I would stay away from any injectables (fillers, Botox, etc.) in your nose as they only temporarily camouflage things without addressing the underlying problem. I suggest you see a rhinoplasty specialist for a consultation. Best wishes.

Answer: Crease line on my nose Dear kit-walkerIf you are referring to the raised area on the left side of your nose, that is consistent with cartilage and should be easily corrected at the time of your rhinoplasty. Seek consultation from more than one surgeon and look for experienced surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
