Does nose height decrease after surgery with silicone?

jocean11
I had Rhino in March 2018. I decided to go with silicone to add height where the nose bridge had deep slope & hopefully to make the alar less wide. We left the alar base undone at the time because I didn't want to have visible scars. I think now the nose bridge looks too high for my asian features. I am wondering if the height will reduce even with silicone? Should I have revision to reduce maybe 2mm of height? Is it a viable plan? Should the silicone be removed? What would you recommend? Tks
