Will a revision rhinoplasty permanently solve nose shifting? 2 years post op.

watmoetje
I had surgery 2 years ago. Before my nose was leaning to the left side, after rhinoplasty it was straight, but after 2 years it shifted back to left side, is this because of cartilage memory? Would a 2nd rhinoplasty help or would it shift back to the left side again after a few years?
