Can a Non-surgical Nosejob Work for a Tip Refinement?

I had an actual surgical nosejob 10 months ago where the doctor shaved off my bone. It was a tough one. I was very bruised (my eyes and face even) afterwards for over 3 weeks and I don't want to go through it again. Anyway... My nose is now straight and narrow, but the tip is not refined enough. It's a bit too short and I need it to be longer or elongated (where my nostrils don't show much). Can non-surgical nose job add fillers to the tip to make it longer or surgery is really needed?
