Lateral Crura Overlay? Can My Revision Be Reversed?

wannabehappy
I had a revision rhino to correct an inverted v. Before surgery. I was specific in telling my doctor that i'd like to maintain the other features of my long slender nose. However, the doctor deprojected my nose using the lateral crura overlay technique. I hate how my nose looks short and wide. When i confronted him about it, he said that i was not a tall woman and that my nose was to long for my face. Can this technique be reversed?
