Can doctor make my tip narrower/straighter by injecting kenalog directly into the scar tissue balls?

andrew_c
I'm 1 year post rhinoplasty and I'm not happy; my skin is thick & oily. The tip of my nose is bulbous and I have scar tissue "balls" on both sides of the tip of my nose. So what are my options? My doc injected kenalog in the left and right sides of my nose but not into the existing scar tissue "balls" on the tip. Can he make my tip narrower/straighter by injecting kenalog directly into the scar tissue balls.
