Alar crease filler - are there any other options? (Photo)

Unlike temporary gel fillers, Silikon-1000 is not associated with necrosis infection embolism stroke or blindness. Additionally, Silikon-1000 is a permanent alternative for filling indentations in the nose. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Thank you for sending your photos. You are absolutely correct that going through surgery carries more risk and is more expensive. It is always best to try non surgical options but your outcomes will depend on the expertise and experience of the provider you chose to go with. Some may say no, others may say yes, but they should explain why they would refuse or agree.Based on your photos, placing micro filler dots into the crease of your nose will lessen the crease, you may also need a little micro botox and some RF micro needling to improve the texture.Everything has risks, surgery has risk and injection has risk, but there are steps than can be taken to decrease it. There can never be guarantees of no complications.All can be safely performed and followed. Necrosis only happens when things are ignored and any experienced injector knows how to handle things in a timely manner in case it were to happen.To learn more, please seek out in person or virtual consultation.
Good luck.Best, Dr.Anna Avaliani, NYC
