Can Sides of my Nose Be Narrowed with Scar Tissue Removal? (photo)

I had upturned curved nose, with wide, undefined tip. 2009 I had tip plasty to remove skin between tip and nasal flaps. Made tip look bigger. I had revision 2010, & 2nd revision Mar. 2011. He took from sides of tip only. I have poor definition in tip itself. I have thick skin, and 4 steroid shots. Last one was recent and it's done nothing. Will tip get narrower on sides? If not, will surgically removing scar tissue help soften tip and give me more definition? Thanks!
