Is It Common And/or Simple to Bring Down Columella?

Maeby
My surgeon says that he will bring down my columella slightly. Currently from the side you cannot really see my columella at all, which I don't like but previously didn't know WHAT I didn't like about it...it just looks rather unnatural. It will look MUCH better if it is slightly lower. Anyway, I can't seem to find any other cases where a patient had their columella brought down. Is this an uncommon thing to do?
