I had septoplasty done about two years ago and it failed quickly. I was wondering if it's possible to have the surgery redone?

My surgery failed about a month after I had it done. Now my nose is worse than it was before I had the surgery. I have no idea how it collapsed so fast after surgery but I had the impression it was going to fail because my outer skin was really stretched around my septum putting a lot of pressure on it. This made things uncomfortable especially when I would smile and laugh. I was wondering if this could have been responsible for the septoplasty failure.
