3 previous botched rhinoplasties, splint in my nose bridge and silicone filler all on the left side. Can my nose be fixed?

I've had 3 previous botched rhinoplasties. They put a splint in my nose bridge (like what they use in Korea) and silicone filler all on the left side of my nose. I hate the way my nose still looks. The left side is bulbous due to the silicone filler and I feel like I have no nose bridge. Would you recommend another invasive rhinoplasty or more silicone filler to build up my nose bridge and make my nose more even (or something else)?
