Depending on the type of rhinoplasty that you have had most if the time this surgery is not reversible. The best person to discuss this with is the primary operating surgeon.
Yes but it requires extensive procedures
You need to allow for a healing time of six months to a year before attempting to modify results from initial surgery. In general, end result is evident in a year. At that time you may seek to have changes. Yes, one can reverse result to a degrees.
Tough question. The answer depends on how extensive the rhinoplasty was and what maneuvers were performed, but the short answer is ‘No’.

There might be some options to camouflage subtle irregularities or improve contour of the dorsum, such as injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) filler, but these must be done with trained hands of professionals who truly understand facial anatomy. Fillers pose risks of skin or tissue necrosis, or worse yet…BLINDNESS.

Seek a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon or Facial Plastic Surgeon if you have already had a rhinoplasty and are seeking further refinements or ways in which to “reverse” certain changes to your nasal anatomy.

Unfortunately, the answer is no. Discuss the results with your plastic surgeon.
Probably not, however, you can be re-operated to correct problems. If the problem is maximum, I would suggest seeing another surgeon.
Yes. But it’s difficult to accomplish
