Middle-vault Collapse and Detached Lateral Cartilage Due To Trauma, What Can I Do To Fix This?

anon4224
Due to trauma in which my nasal tip was hit very hard it seems this has caused its detachment from essential areas for support and has made the bridge/middle vault cartilage collapse. How can this be fixed? Its made for not only breathing obstruction but also a great deformity as its become very disharmonious with my face. Is it possible to build the bridge up with grafts while also reattaching/refining the tip to how it was before? Thank you.
