Can filler fix nostril asymmetry? (Photo)

Question

Just curious about trying to make my nostrils a bit more symmetrical and wondering if the liquid nose job is a possibility. There are other issues that I’m sure it can fix but you can see my nose angles to a side. First picture is not smiling and second is smiling. Also can it soften the contact area where the nostrils meet the face?

Hello and thank you for your question. You seem to be a great candidate for a non surgical nose job procedure. With fillers such as Juvederm, Radiesse, Restylane or Bellafill we can create a more balanced and symmetric look.  Feel free to call our office with any questions.  We would love to have you schedule an in-person consultation so that we can go over details more thoroughly. Hope this helps!

In general, up close nasal photos are difficult to evaluate. It appears that your right nostril margin is a drop higher than your left. Depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon 1000 injections may be considered for lowering the nostril margin for improved symmetry. Sometimes we need to lower the opposite side as well to get things as symmetrical as possible. Hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Hello,Thanks for your question. Filler can help in some instances where the tip is concerned. Much of your tip asymmetry is related to septal and bone asymmetry higher up on the nose. The alar crease can be softened where it meets the face with filler that is carefully performed. The risk is higher because nasolabial perforating vessels lie in this space and injury to them could cause loss of alar/nostril tissue, so be careful.Good luck,Dr. Shah

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to go over your desired results. Facial fillers (voluma, restylane, juvederm) can be used to improve the symmetry of the nose. However, surgery would be needed to improve the nostrils or  overall shape. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
