How can I shrink or refine a bulbous nose without surgery?
I have a very narrow bridge and middle and a round bulbous tip. I notice that my nose looks much better in cold weather or at times, if I take an antihistamine. Would a kenalog injection provide safe, long-lasting shrinkage to a bulbous tip? Can you recommend any other non-surgical medications or ideas?
Editor's Note: See Do non surgical nose jobs work? as this question relates.

You can not shrink a large nose with anything other than surgery. Steroids are only used to decrease swelling in a post operative nose. Fillers make noses bigger - sorry but surgery would be needed to make a tip smaller
