Uneven nostrils after rhinoplasty - particularly when smiling Will a revision correct this?

Asked By:chloe555 in United Kingdom, GB

I had rhinoplasty in 2008, my plastic surgeon reduced the tip and the alar base. One thing that bothers me is that the right nostril sits higher than the left nostril, this is particularly noticable when I smile. The two sides look slightly different when looking at me front on but the assymetry is very noticeable when looking at the nostrils. Is this something that can be corrected in a revision?
