How Will Rhinoplasty Change my Nose Type? (photo)

Hello everyone, I'm a 19 year old male living in California. I have ethnic indigenous heritage and unfortunately inherited the nose aswell, I think they call it an Aquiline nose . Well I've always noticed my nose being ugly , since I started puberty and now that I'm 19 I think my nose has fully grown into this monstrous beast. The problems I have with it are that it has a large prominent bridge , and a bulbouse tip and it droops very badly when I smile. Everyone stares and just doesn't look good

Nasal Shape Concerns and Rhinoplasty

All of the features of your nose that you dislike can be addressed with surgery.
