Possible to Lengthen the Nose to Reduce Distance Between Nose and Upper Lip?

Rayel
I have a short nose, which accentuates my long philtrum. I'm wondering if it's possible to increase the length of the nose and thereby close the gap to a certain degree between my nose and upper lip. (just as side note, my nose isn't turned up... just short)
