Cleft Lip Inquiring About Further Procedures? (photo)

I was born with cleft lip and palate and have undergone many surgeries over the years. I underwent an Abbe flap and am curious for professional opinion regarding the scars above my lip, on the lip tissue and below the lip? I spoke with my surgeon regarding a lip vulcanization (fix lip symmetry) also i was interested in altering uneven nostrils and size of septum. Thanks for your professionalism
