Alarplasty 5mm Removed? (photo)

Hello!! i had alar sill excision two weeks ago. The doctor said he removed 5mm from each side but when i look at my nose now i really don't notice that much of width reduced.. i thought 5mm from each side is perfect to make nostrils small and obviously less wide.. here are some pictures the nurse took me. Is this really the result of 5mm skin removal?? or will it imrpove with time ? will nose shrinks with less swelling? For the moment it is still this wide.Please tell me your opinions.thank you !
