I am almost 6 months post op and have had my surgeon work on my nose twice due to an infection (surgeon says it’s because my skin did not heal as predicted) and now my nose looks like this with a dent on the right side. My question is - will fillers save my nose? I truly hope not to go into a major op again but the outlook of my nose is affecting me, any advice is appreciated. My surgeon had said that the scarring is causing the dents but I am not sure if I should get 2nd opinions.
