Hi all, I had breathing issues and wanted to fix the aestetic side a bit. Bump on the bridge, crooked nose, uneven nostrils. unfortunatelly the doctor made much more things to the nose that we didnt discuss! Shorted it, slim bridge, so pinched tip! So I hate my new nose and I am in a big depression, dont look like myself, Is it possible to restore some of my old nose features - hanging columella, higher and wider bridge, rounded tip? 3m po
