I had primary rhinoplasty many years ago which involved placement of a synthetic medpor implant to augment the nose bridge. However I have been unhappy with the shape of the implant. Although it feels to be placed centrally, it is slightly higher on one side and therefore gives the upper part of my nose bridge a slight, although noticeable, asymmetrical appearance. To avoid another surgery, would it be safe to use fillers near a nose implant to correct the asymmetry?

Sometimes, nasal tip whiteness is also due to thick nasal tip skin. In either of these scenarios, only rhinoplasty surgery is recommended to achieve permanent nasal tip narrowing. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph
