My nose is still long after Rhinoplasty. Will is get shorter?

kkitslexi
I'm 16 and I got a nose job four months ago. The shape of the nose is great, the hump has been shaved & tip are better. The issue is that my nose seems to be long. If the length of my nose were to decrease by about a centimeter I'd be so happy. I have super oily skin and very thick skin as well. The hanging columella is bothering me. My surgery was focused on the tip, and it's still hard. The surgery was done by a well-known professional. Will it shrink down, and not be as long?? Please help.
