Indented/uneven supra alar crease post septorhinoplasty, options? (Photo)

April 17, 2014

9 months post op. My nose is still crooked, though significantly less after my procedure. My left supra alar crease is much more indented than the right. I was wondering if piercing the right side would indent it a bit more to make it more symmetrical, or if it would only draw attention to the unevenness. My surgeon recommended a filler like juvederm, but it being temporary AND expensive has me hesitant. Any thoughts on the best way to correct the unevenness would be much appreciated! Thank you!
