Can filler be used to fill in cartilage from behind ear?

Asked By:tipala in Reston, Virginia

I had ear cartilage taken from behind my ear to build up the bridge in my nose. Can a filler be put in to fill that cavity so that people who sit behind me won't see that? I was asked about it when I got a haircut. I can only imagine that other people might see it and wonder about it as well.
