Each situation is unique and only your rhinoplasty surgeon knows the specific details of your procedure and should be the person commenting on post-operative questions such as this
This not an uncommon issue. Usually I cut the upper lip muscles slighly and most importantly, I support the tip with a cartilage intercrural graft. Cinching sutures have been used to narrow the nasal base but, often lead to asymetry and discomfort.
In short: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. So, if you like the look and there is no signs of infection or implant rejection then I would leave it alone. Nasal implants are constructed differently than breast implants and don't need to be replaced routinely.
