It's not clear from your photos what you are looking to achieve. A "supra-alar crease" is the indentation that normally occurs above your nostril margin. If that is the only source of concern, microdroplet Silikon-1000 may be considered.Rhinoplasty surgery may lead to deepening of supra-alar creases unless cartilage grafting is performed.Hope this helps you.Dr. Joseph
Your wished simulation is not technically feasible, since inside the alar wing there is nothing, no skeleton, it is sking outside and skin inside.

How aggressive to be in doing this is where judgement must be exercised. Only with a full examination and consultation can we really know what is correct for you. I would encourage you to set up a consult to find the correct course.
