Here is a picture today of the area. Nasal fold region still seems to be very visible, it wasn't this visible prior to the surgery. Here is my left side for contrast:

@Obi wan What do you think? Should I continue waiting it out? What should I ask the derm for? I feel like I could get her to compensate me with a free subcision or laser treatment etc, so let me know what you think the best way to proceed would be. Thanks.

@spasticatedI would do more subcision. You don't have to do filler. You can do Chinese cupping at home or have them use prp as a spacer because you had the vascular occlusion before from the sub + filler. She also could do a bit of laser co2 or erbium.

Here's an update as of today. I went back to the dermatologist for the first time in months and she did a subcision on the scar under my eye, which is why it looks sorta bruised in the picture. As for the nasalfold region all she did was put a little bit of filler in there, but it still seems to be looking a little strange... I'm not sure if the skin itself is scarred in the fold region or if it's due to atrophy or swelling of some sort.

@spasticatedIt's doto "possible" - atrophy and swelling from the sub she did. Pull up the facial skin at the temple area and see if that cheek looks better. If so you need some filler higher up on your arch there to improve this. But wait until all swelling has gone down.

For some reason she didn't think a subcision would help the nasal fold area, so she didn't do one there. She only did a subcision on the scar under my eye. The nasal fold area just has some filler in it and that's all. I'm going to talk to her again and see if she can do something else about it.
