Is Rhinoplasty the right option for bulbous/droopy noses? Or can filler also be an option as well? (Photos)

Asked By:Kind980562 in Los Angeles, California

Hello! I am interested in undergoing a rhinoplasty for my bulbous nose, I am wondering if filler would be a good option for me, but am worried because I have heard of migration. My nose is rather bulbous and droops when i smile so i'm worried that the rhinoplasty is going to be complicated and is a big factor as to why i'm scared of undergoing the surgery itself. Is rhinoplasty a more durable and effective option?
