Can Plastic Surgery Involving The Nasal Septum Be Reversed?

Hi, I ve done plastic surgery that involves using nasal septum to shape my tip of the nose bit higher and I m really regretting it now. It s been two years from the surgery and I m afraid if the removal surgery can t be done because i heard there is a possibility that the nasal septum can be reabsorbed into the body and stick in the nose in a way that even doctors find it hard to remove and some of them don t recommend removal surgery at all. Can you tell me if the surgery can be reversed?
