What are these indentations/holes in the skin that I have gotten after septorhinoplasty called and are they fixable?

Asked By:youtakemehigher in Australia, AU

I previously posted about this, but I've noticed dents or indentations on the sides of my nose, right above my nostrils. They are particularly visible in front-view photos and have become the most bothersome aspect of my post-septorhinoplarty results which was almost 13 months ago. Can these be corrected during a revision? Is it possible? I've attached my post-op report and current photos of my nose for reference. I did not have this issue before my surgery
