I don't want rhinoplasty necessarily just hate this line down the middle. Also what would something like that cost?
Answer: Tip rhinoplasty Unfortunately, you have not provided a side view. However, you would benefit from a tip rhinoplasty. The operation would take about 1 hour and cost $5,000.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Unique Rhinoplasty Although you have a very unusual situation -whether it is from birth or trauma it can be improved by the application of standard rhinoplasty techniques in the hands of an experienced surgeon. Specific attention toward the tip with either cartilage repositioning--- cartilage grafting-- or possibly implant placement will give you the best results.In my opinion, it would be not in your best interests to simply try to cover the cleft.

Answer: Vertical Cleft of Nasal Tip Wow, interesting, and uniquely you! Easiest way (also least expensive and most immediate) is injectable filler. You however, don't just want the vertical cleft filled, because this would result in a horizontally broad nasal tip. You want the tip narrowed and unified with nice aesthetics to match your other beautiful features.A good examination is important to know size and shape of cartilage, and underlying maxillary support. Depending on findings, a well planned and masterfully executed tip rhinoplasty will "fix" the problem. You probably won't miss it, but some friends and family might.

Answer: Fixing a separation in nasal tip The best long-term solution for fixing the line in between your tips are to realign the cartilages so that there is no space between them. This would entail a rhinoplasty.Your alternative is to use a dermal filler such as Restalyn or Juvederm. This will provide a transient correction of the deformity that you're interested in. This can be done in very small increments and it can be done while you're watching. The other advantage of this approach is that if you do not like what you see, then you can also inject a little enzyme to reverse the dermal filler product. I would definitely go to someone who is experienced in the nonsurgical rhinoplasty.

Answer: Is there anything that I can have done to fix the line in my nose? A tip rhinoplasty would have a far more predictable and long lasting result than would a filler.Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
