Can dermal fillers help with a crooked nose tip? (photo)

Question

Wondering if non surgical option for straightening the appearance of the nasal tip (which deviates to the right) can be achieved with dermal filler injections.

Marvin F. Shienbaum, MD · Answer

Dermal fillers can sometimes help improve the appearance of a crooked nose tip. Here's how:

Adding Volume: Fillers can be injected strategically to add volume to areas that are under-projected, creating a more balanced and symmetrical appearance.   
Correcting Asymmetry: If one side of the nose tip is noticeably lower or smaller, fillers can help even out the contours.   
However, it's important to note:

Limitations: Fillers can only make subtle changes. Significant crookedness or structural issues may not be effectively addressed with fillers.
Temporary Results: The effects of dermal fillers are temporary, typically lasting several months to a year.   
Experienced Injector: The success of filler treatment heavily relies on the skill and experience of the injector.   
If you're considering dermal fillers for a crooked nose tip:

Consult a qualified and experienced board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon. They can assess your specific concerns and determine if fillers are a suitable option for you.
Discuss your goals and expectations realistically.
Choose a reputable practitioner with a proven track record in facial aesthetics.

Minor deviation of asymmetry along the nasal tip can be improved, but given the degree of deviation of your tip to the right, and the deviation of your columella, nonsurgical rhinoplasty would not be the best option for correction.

A non-surgical rhinoplasty to help with the tip of the nose is definitely an option and one that gets done often.  Look up #bostontipflip and right here in RS to see many before and after samples.

Based on your singular photo, I suspect that you have a deviated nasal septum, at the base of your septum. This is likely causing the tip of your nose to drift to the right. In that regard, septorhinoplasty surgery may be the best option, depending on your examination. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

John Michael Thomassen, MD · Answer

I believe the only way to successfully straighten the nose is with a tip rhinoplasty.  Fillers do not have the integrity to shape a nose in this way.
