I had rhinoplasty 5 years ago for a hump removal. To my suprise, the doctor made my nose much smaller and deprojected it.The anterior nasal spine was removed,depressor septi was released and tip was upturned. A columella graft was put in place to support the nose. My upper lip is now longer then before.I'm wondering if the upper lip can be shortened by derotating and reprojecting the nose.If I push forward on the columella the upper lip seems to return to the way it used to be.
