Is this a dent or divot in the tip cartilage after rhinoplasty? (Photo)

Elle32
I had a revision rhinoplasty a few months ago. Although I like the improvement I have noticed as the swelling has subsided that there is an odd dent or divot in the cartilage tip of my nose on only one side. I'm wondering if this is common, whether or not it is likely to improve, and if it is something a touch up is capable of fixing or if it would only increase the problem. Thank you. This photo doesn't show how bad it is in some lighting but gives a rough impression of the problem.
