How To Fix Asymmetrical Nose (large Soft Tissue Triangle)? (photos)

RVG11
my concern is my right nostril (nostril on the left side in the picture). it connects so high up on my nose rather than connecting lower like the opposite nostril. gives a very asymmetrical piggy effect. You can see the dent it causes from the side view, it makes the soft tissue triangle huge and deep. How to fix it and also whats the proper term for this, what is the name for that part of the nostril that you can see slants and connects so high to the nose bridge? whats the specific cartilage?
