Can the Labii Levator Superioris Muscle Be Repaired?

3302anon
I believe my labii levator superioris muscle was compromised during a poorly executed rhinoplasty procedure 4 years ago. I am recently seeking a revision but was wondering if the muscle can this be reinserted into the proper location? I have loss of muscle tone and sagging mid face area. Also, there is alot of extra skin around my mouth area as well. My side view looks like I aged 20 years. I am only 30 years old.
