Filler post Rhinoplasty - how to to reduce the pinched look on the sides? (photos)

Question

Hi, I had a primary rhinoplasty 4 years ago and a deviated nose post surgery bothers me. I am looking at all options and wondering whether filler could help achieve a satisfactory result for me. There are bumps etc to be smoothed out but I am interested in where filler can be injected around the nostril area. Prior to surgery my nostril show was less and my deviation less apparent. I wonder if filler can be placed to lower the nostril show? And also on the sides to reduce the pinched look?

Andrew Miller, MD · Answer

Filler can be used to make adjustments in asymmetries after rhinoplasty. It can be placed along the nostril rim to thicken it some and bring it down a bit. If the filler works, then Silicone can be placed to make the result permanent.

Depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 may be considered for a permanent fill of tip pinching and retracted nostrils after prior rhinoplasty. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph.

Filler can be used if very carefully placed around the rim of the nostril to make the nostrils a little smaller and s small amount of filler can be placed in the pinched area of the nostril but has to be done with caution and placed correctly to alleviate the “pinched” look
