Did my alarplasty revision go wrong? I had surgery 1 hour ago. (photos)

I had surgery 1 hour ago. I got a revision done on one of my nostril bases because there was an obvious gap (the other base was thicker). So I got a revision done and now my nostrils are two completely different sizes! The revised one is also obviously smaller in nostril size. My doctor says it's because of the stitches pulling the skin together and swelling. He says that over the next few months, it will naturally get wider and closer to size. Is this true? Do I need it revised again?
