How realistic is a revision in my case? Would it help with anything? Or it it too high risk? (Photos)

23F 5’0” 110lbs I had a rhinoseptoplasty in 2022 for fix a bulbous tip with slip cartilage, a deviated septum, and large nostrils. About one year later I had a cartilage graft done in office under local anesthesia to fix a small bump (this was successful and not an issue). Overall, there is definitely a huge improvement from my previous nose. However, I’m still not super confident. I feel like the tip is still bulbous and the nostrils are long and pinched. A small bit of scar is uneven on my columella as well. From certain angles and if you feel my nose there are lumps and dips along the top and while I know nobody is 100% symmetrical, I think my nose is quite asymmetrical, sticks out a lot, and looks weird. My scars are also quite visible from the side. I just want to feel pretty. One reason I got surgery in the first place was bc I realized I had so many more pictures of myself during COVID since I wore a mask and you couldn’t see my nose. Originally, I was adamant about a female surgeon but the one I went to recommended a male bc she said my nose was complex. I ended up using him and he’s super well respected in the southeast. I went to him a few months ago and he said he didn’t think I needed one but if I still wanted a revision in a year he would do it. Is it even reasonable to do a revision? Or am I making a mountain about of a molehill? I definitely want to use a new surgeon. The first pics are now, then pre op, then one week postop.
