Dip in Nose After Rhinoplasty. What's a Permanent Solution?

jeff716a
3 months after surgery, all swelling gone & has been for a month. When swelling went away, a dip showed in my nose. Dip size is not changing. Went to DR today, he suggested Radiesse, I asked if this was permanent, he said, "After 4 years with a few touch ups, we'll see, it should stimulate collagen production." But I've never heard of it as a permanent solution. I want PERMANENT. Should I let him inject? Or should I ask for a permanent surgical solution at the 6-12 month mark?
