Asked By:Garver881 in Spearwood, Western Australia, Australia
I have always had quite a sharp appearing nose particularly on my left side. I have notice when photographed on that side the crease and cartlidge causing that. I dont wish to have a full rhinoplasty as its to expensive. I have read many more things than i expected about fillers in the nose being high risk of necrosis and many places refuse to do it.
