My PS says my columellar show can’t be fixed. Is that true? (Photos)

Asked By:AboutTime14 in San Francisco, CA

Had rhinoplasty 1.5 years ago; not happy with the results for various reasons. The main reason is it appears my septum was not straightened, & you can see it sticks out of my (L) nostril, making my nose between the nostrils veer to the right. Also my (R) nostril is already higher than the (L). He says nothing can be done about the retracted nostrils & he can only minimally improve the columella show, because of height ratio of my nostril versus the base of my nose (under the columella).True?
