Can cartilage shift back after a rhinoplasty? (photo)

nathanmarte5012
I was looking into getting rhinoplasty for a crooked nose due to a trauma case caused years back . I came across online that the memory of the nose cartilage can tend to shift back after rhinoplasty. If this does occur will my nose look crooked like it did before the procedure was done ? Or will it be slightly more crooked then the nose I came out of procedure with ?
