I had rhinoplasty 16 years ago but recently noticed my nostrils getting higher so showing like a pig. My tip was always sticking up but I learnt to live with it. However it feels like the edge of the nostril / tip of my nose has dipped in and I think this is why the nostril is more on show. Side on you can see fully into my nose and cthe scar from the rhinoplasty. Help please
