Nose Re-Surgery

My nasal tip is lifting—could this be contracture?

I kept telling myself, "it can’t be, it can’t be," but it seems right. I already figured the nasal blockage from rhinitis was something to just accept. If the tip feels like it’s lifting… that’s definitely it, right? I can see contracture symptoms, and it sounds exactly like my own case. It’s only been a year and a half since surgery, I’ve already made a follow-up appointment at the surgery hospital, but is it right to have it done again at the same hospital… I’m not sure if it’s contracture or a temporary symptom, but the tip angle has changed. If there is a doctor who has handled many contracture noses or revision rhinoplasty, could you let me know? I’d be really grateful if everyone here who has had surgery tells me. So far I’ve picked out only a few hospitals. There are maybe one or two lead surgeons at those places, and after reading reviews I decided on a consultation list of 4 in total. The doctors I’m considering are Kim Taeseop, Jeon Yong-hoon, Lee Jae-jun, and Kim Jin-sung. If this is contracture, then autologous costal cartilage should be used, right? Where else should I go?
