Can one higher nostril than the other be fixed? (Photos)

julietsofy
I had my rhinoplasty 7 months ago, I know there might still be swelling but my problem is with the nostrils of the nose. One is higher and larger than the other, from the front it looks very asymmetric. I know that nobody’s perfectly symmetric but I would like to know if there’s anything I can do to make it look better? And not so visible to everyone. Thanks for helping!
