Bifid Nose - OR time + question about temp filler fix? (Photo)

July 25, 2024
Asked By:Persistent123642 in Los Angeles, California

I've lost 180+lbs and swear my bifid nose is more pronounced now. 1. I have to financially prioritize removing skin. Is filler likely to temporarily improve the appearance ? If so, about how many vials might be required + would it complicate future surgical fix? 2. Is there a shorter surgery to address just the cleft that could be more easily folded into safe OR time for a skin procedure (assuming I am otherwise a low risk patient)? Or is a rhinoplasty a rhinoplasty? Thank you so much!
