Why do I have a line on the left side of my nose? Is it from narrowing too much? (Photo)

magdatch
I am three weeks post surgery and I have a prominent line running down the left side of my nose depending on the lighting. Is this due to narrowing the nose too mush. Also the front seems very narrow as well. I didn't ask for my nose to be more narrow. I love the shape of my profile but the line bothers me and how narrow the top of my nose is. The First photo is the before photos and the rest are after my surgery.
