What Would Need to Be Done to Make my Nose Tip Refined and Thinner and to Get Rid of the Bump? (photo)

I have been wanting to get a nose job ever since i was 15 and when i turn 18 im going to do it. I just feel such low self esteem and try to turn my head to the side so that people dont see my nose from the side view... I really dont like the bulbous tip either. What are the surgeries that would need to be performed? What are the risks involved? and What would be the cost for that. I also heard that people die from rhinoplasty. What are the chances of that? Here are some pics of what my nose.
