Lip lift changed base of nose and nostrils, creating wider appearance and crooked nostrils. Can this be corrected? (Photos)

I am 6 months post op on an upper lip lift. I love the lip lift but do not like how it has changed my nose at the bottom. Specifically, my nose appears wider along the incision line with it looking wider, and one nostril is visibly much higher than the other. My nose is also now veering to the left, which it did not previously do. I was happy with my nostrils prior to surgery, so this is a little disappointing even though I am happy with my lip lift result to my lips...just not my nostrils.Costs?
