Columella not straight. Right side is different to left. Bulkier. Can this be fixed? Do I need rib cartilage? (photos)

Tinkerbell Ali
It's month 5 since my rhinoplasty. The left side is bulky and it doesn't feel like swelling it's cartilage I can feel it. Both sides are so different. Please tell me if this can be fixed. When I touch my columella the left side (good side)feels like it has some cartilage holding the nostril in shape. When I touch the right side it feels empty like there's no support (bad side) What can a revision do to fix this? Please help From the front my nostrils look flared out
