View allI'm interested in getting Botox and fillers to shape my face into a V-line and maybe enhance my nose too. I don't want surgical options, just non-invasive treatments. Can this actually work? Also, I'd like to see before-and-after results from real patients who've had this done to get an idea of what's possible. How safe and effective is this for achieving the look I want?
