Is reduction of supra alar crease possible? (photo)

samieee
Hi, I have a very deep and distinct supra alar crease, specially visible from the profile. Is it possible to get this "removed" or totally reduced in visibility during a rhinoplasty? One surgeon mentioned this is not possible to "change" this as it's genetics? Is this correct? (Please find attached photo). Thanks in advance!
