I want a more projected tip and less nostril show. Can I achieve that in a revision rhinoplasty? (Photo)

sadeem10
I'm a 26 Caucasian female; originally from Lebanon. I had a rhinoplasty 3 years ago. My nose is now too short with too much nostril show and the bridge is much wider than before. My tip also lacks projection and my nose flares too much when I smile. I attached some photos of my nose after the surgery. I just want a little more length to my nose, a less nostril show, and most importantly a more projected tip. Can I achieve that in a revision rhinoplasty? What are my options? Thank you!
