Tip Plasty for Improving the Appearance of Fatty Nostrils?

My nostrils are not big nor flaring, the alar-nasal crease is just too high up, making my nose look short and fat from frontal view. So I just want to reduce the height of my nostrils from the top as well as make them look less fat. Is this possible?
