I had a closed rhinoplasty about 13 years ago. It left me with uneven nostrils. I don't mind the size difference, but the difference in shape and obvious "notching" of my right nostril is extremely bothersome. Would a small amount of filler be able to smooth out the notch, and give me a result similar to the second picture which i have edited? Or is another surgery my only option?

Hello and thank you for your question. Rhinoplasty, if done well, should bring about subtle changes that enhance and soften your looks but are not easily noticeable. Please consult a board certified cosmetic surgeon. All the best.
Hello,
It's unlikely that you have done any permanent damage to your nose after trauma. If the splint was still on the nose the risk of any displacement is even less. Make sure your surgeon evaluates your nose internally and externally when the splint is removed.
Regards,
I'm sorry you don't like your rhinoplasty result but I cannot evaluate your tip with these pictures. Yes, tip sutures can be removed or changed but I don't know if that is the cause of your problem. I recommend you discuss this with your surgeon or get a second opinion from a revision...
