My nose looks very small? (photos)

Let me know if u need more photographs.

Is it normal for the columella to be sewn completely flat so that it doesn't show at all from the profile?
Michael Elam, MD (retired) says:

Dear sciarpa, No, it is not normal for the columella to be sewn flat as it is an integral part of the nose and it's multiple dimensions. The nasal anatomy has to be taken into consideration in all of it's complexity at the time of surgery.  With all of this said, your surgeon is your best...
