Nose Re-Surgery

2 years after nose surgery, should I get revision surgery?

<Side view when bowing the head: no major complaints><Slightly crooked><Side view with the head raised: looks rounder><Round, heavy-looking nose tip><Front view after makeup>About 2 years ago, I had only the bridge of my nose done at a local plastic surgery clinic. The silicone was inserted very thinly, and there are no functional problems. But the tip of my nose was already slightly crooked, and after surgery it feels like that became more noticeable. Since I didn't do anything to the tip, it feels round and like my nose actually looks bigger? Right now, from the front, when I put on makeup I don't have major complaints, but from the side I'm unhappy because my nose looks too round.. My alar base also sits a bit low, so I'm thinking maybe I should just get alar reduction... If I don't care much about height and want the nose to become slimmer, would I need tip surgery using ear cartilage? Or would alar reduction alone be enough to satisfy me to some extent...? Honestly, part of the reason I didn't get tip surgery is that I'm afraid of having something placed into the tip of my nose. I heard silicone is easier to remove, but cartilage is harder to take out again...
