One of my nostrils sits lower and is a slightly different shape than the other, could this be corrected? (Photo)

Asked By:Manc.2014 in England

Is this something that can be corrected? I like the nostril that sits higher as it suits the shape of my nose and when I smile. It has bothered me for years and I wanted to know if it could be made to look like/similar to the other nostril? It stands out in photographs and it really bugs me. I know it may not seem like such a big deal but I have quite a small face and it is more noticeable in my opinion. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
