Does a columelloplasty do anything to help improve nasal breathing when combined with a septoplasty and turbinate reduction?

I have a very deviated septum and need turbinate reduction also as I can't breathe through my nose at all when lying down/sleeping. My nostril openings are narrow - like slits - would a collumeloplasy do anything to open my nostrils wider and would this help my breathing? (Considering a cosmetic rhinoplasty along with this surgery for function).
