I want to get the filler as Im approaching the year mark and I want to build on my previous fill. The surgery would be about a month later. Nothing external is being done on my nose, and theres no filler in or around the nose. Just making sure theres nothing Im missing as I can wait on the filler if absolutely necessary.
After a month of throbbing pain on the left side of my nose with numbness on my left cheek and a feeling of pressure my doctor said it is a nerve in my cheek. Will this go away? Its been 37 days since my surgery. I also have a small visible suture (absorbable) where the incision is an a small area that hurts.
I want to start off saying that I had an deviated septum surgery about 4 years ago. I have a septal perforation on the right side of my nose. It has become big to the point that my right cheek looks a bit flat and the tip of my nose has changed shape. I am having difficulty breathing, dry nose, congestion, pain from time to time, and numbness mostly head area. I am not sure what to do at this point.
I had surgery to correct a deviated septum and turbinate reduction. I notice when I wash my face etc, a certain part of my cheeks causes a reflex to my nose and I jump. Also a lot of sinus headaches with breathing and sneezing as I live in Texas which is known for the pollen, cedar etc which I assume my nose is getting irritated by...and my lip and btwn my nose & lip area is still sore. I have a post op appt in two days. Is this normal? I am supposed to return to work in a week.
Is it better to wait until after the surgery? Or does it not matter? I'm getting a cat scan on my nose today. Does filler show up on a cat scan? I just don't want things to be different for when the dr sees the cat scan and if things would be different if I had filler after that. I don't want him going in and getting any surprises. Am I worrying for nothing? Also, if I get Botox before the surgery is there a timeline I should be considering?
