Is it possible to pull the entire columella down to make nose straighter? (Photos)

Fabulous633921
I had a lot of trauma in the tip and columella area that caused my nose to turn upward and become wider than it already was before. And retracted columella. Also had nasal trauma injury where I had a hard pull to my nose and seemed to cause a bit of saddle nose worse than I already had and footplates poke out more now. Is it possible to pull the columella as far as the picture below and suture it to be pulled together more? I would like to keep my bump and the roundness since I am mixed w black!
