Microdroplet Silikon-1000 nasal injections may be considered for filling indentations after rhinoplasty. You are seeing these largely because you appear to have this nasal skin. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Thank you for your question. After rhinoplasty, scar contracture can cause the structure of the nose to change. I would recommend consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in the revision rhinoplasty to discuss your concerns and goals. Best of luck!
