Is it possible for the rib cartilage to reabsorb even when the diced wrapped-in facia method was used?

is it possible for the rib cartilage to reabsorb even when the diced wrapped-in facia method is used for the bridge? and between the tip and bridge which is more likely to reabsorb? for context i did asian rib rhinoplasty 6 months ago, and i think my tip is a bit overprojected. I'm wondering if there is a possibility that it'll deproject on its own without revision.
