My Nose is Still Long After Rhinoplasty, Why is this? (photo)

Loopy
I had rhinoplasty a month aago to remove a hump, push back the tip, and remove droopy cartilage. Today, my hump is still there bu tthe doctor says it is swelling. My question is I still find my nose to look long for my nose and I am trying to figure out what makes a nose long? is it the hump that I still see? How do doctors make a nose look shorter I guess is what I am trying to figure out to see what needs to be done on mine if I end up going for a revision in a year. Picture attached
