Is It Possible to Reduce the Nostrils on a Big Bulbous Nose??

Hi, I'm a female, mid 20's, & have wanted a rhinoplasty for awhile! My main issue is that it's just too big for my face! Specifically, I'd like the profile brought down to reduce projection. I'd also like to reduce the bulbous tip. Lastly, I'd like to reduce the nostrils (they are huge!). I used photoshop to show changes I'd like to see but are these realistic & can I bring these to a doctor to show him what I desire? Are the nostril reduction expectations realistic? (thinned/narrowed) Thanks!

Yes. It is called alar base reduction. This can be performed within the nostrils and the incisions hidden or in the crease between the nose and the cheek.

Nostril length is proportional to tip size
Everything in rhinoplasty is proportion. Your tip is bulky and can be reduced and reshaped with grafts to give you the kind of angularity that you have Photo-shopped. Be careful about nostril reduction, however. The smaller your nostrils are, the fatter your tip will look--just because of proportion. You need some reduction and also some augmentation--to create shape where more is needed. A pure reduction strategy will disappoint you. Please select a surgeon.
