I had an Italian lip lift with a reduction of lips and it made my nose wider with hanging columella and removed my sills without any knowledge that this would affect my nose whatsoever . I never had a problem with my nose and only had a rhino many yrs ago to correct a broken bone . What should or can be done ? I have seen many drs and some say leave it alone and others say to fix it . Confused but not happy with it and doesn't feel like me with this nose
