Philtrum flat after rhinoplasty. (photo)

Eleanor81
as you can see from the attached before/after photos, after my rhinoplasty 3 weeks ago, my upper lip has lengthened. My doctor said he would not cut the muscle that attaches my lip to my nose, as it would have a bad impact. Now I wonder why it looks so different? I miss the curved shape of my old philtrum and lips. I would like to avoid more surgery bit want to fix this! Also, from the front I have a naturally full upper lip. I feel that a lot of filler in the upper lip would be useless.
