How soon after rhinoplasty can nasolabial folds be injected?

December 13, 2014
Asked By:irsi in Los Angeles, CA

I had a open rhinoplasty recently & the swelling is average to good, but my nose is slightly assymetrical in projection, & probably will stay that way. The left side of the nose is heavier & that side of the face is naturally droopier, making the lines on that side deeper as well. This has gotten worse with age. How soon after rhinoplasty would it be safe to have those lines softened with fillers, & will it make my nose appear larger? Is there any risk of interfering with proper healing?
