Hello. I'm 22 years old and I got a rhinoplasty when I was 15 years old by a popular surgeon. He completely botched my nose and the tip is over projected and overturned. I've been putting off fixing it because i'm scared to get it botched again. I've attached pictures and am wondering if the tip can be lowered and if there is any risk. (First is before, the rest of the pics are after the surgery). Thank you!
