The right side of my nose is slightly sunken near the tip. Can I build this up to match the left? About how much recovery?

Taktak
The tip of my nose is slightly uneven and because I already have a bump in my nose (which I do not want to correct), the entire right side of my nose (the side with the sunken tip) looks extremely crooked (it dips and peaks and dips again). So my question is, can I build up the right tip of my nose ever so slightly to match the left side -- which I love!? The problem is only in the fleshy tip so I hoped that it might be possible without much or any surgery...
