1 year post op and nostrils look unnatural when smiling - is it too early for a revision? (photos)

Asked By:Enthusiastic869094 in Santa Barbara, CA

I had a rhinoplasty done a year ago. I asked for the same shape as my natural nose but scaled down and smaller. However, I was given a less ethnic looking shape. Overall, the job doesn’t look bad when resting. There still some asymmetries. But, I actually recieve compliments often. However, when I smile big my nostrils look unnatural on some pictures and certain angles. I can’t find much information on this issue. Is it still too early to consider this a botched job? Are revisions recommended?
