Crooked Columella and Deflected Caudal Septum After Septoplasty

Ninja1992
After my septoplasty, my columella seems crooked and you can see the bottom of my septum through my right nostril. I don't feel this is caused by swelling and want to know if these problems will heal over time and if they are common. If they will not heal themselves, how can I go about correcting them (I do not want to have to go through the whole septoplasty experience again). Thank you very much for your help.
