Is tip revision alone possible? (Photo)

bandit0524
I had a closed rhinoplasty about 23 years ago. I am 46 now. Through time the right tip has moved with gravity I assume. Because it was very symmetrical up until about 10 years ago and I slowly noticed changes. I love the rest of it. It’s not perfect but I’m ok with that. I just would like that one area reduced if that’s even possible. It’s definitely cartilage as I can move it and it’s quite pointy from certain angles, sure to get more prominent with aging.
