I received a rhinoplasty in November of 2017. The doctor (who was great) made a break at the top bridge of my nose which I have developed a couple weird “indents” around where the break was. I am looking into getting a liquid nose job to fill these indents and give a fuller straighter appearance. I have now made an appt with my original surgeon, but I am scared for my life that I will go blind/kill the skin. How common is this? And should I not get it?

I don't believe I've seen any before and after photos that demonstrate significant elevation of a droopy nasal tip appearance in people who have had thread lifting for this reason. Thank you for your question, and I hope it's helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
Have utilized microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections on top of synthetic nasal implants for years, and we have thankfully not seen any infections. HA fillers are sugar molecules, and these may be more likely to be associated with an infection. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
Your question stems from a possible relationship between Accutane usage and poor healing and scarring. This is controversial, and there is no correct answer. In our practice, we wait at least 4 months after cessation of isotretinoin for injectables or for rhinoplasty surgery. Thank you. Dr Joseph
