What Type of Rhinoplasty is Suitable? (photo)

I have thick and oily Indian skin.My nose is very big from my face. My nose bridge is not defined. I want a sharper and defined nose bridge, a more pointy and slimmer tip. Is my nose upturned should I get it fixed? Should I get my nostrils narrowed too? Will Osteotomy help me in getting what I want? All I want is a Slim and properly defined nose. I completely lost at what I should do. I really don't care whether I'll look different after the surgery or not but can my nose be slimmed and defined.

Nasal Reduction

You do have a wide, crooked nose with thick skin that is out of proportion with the rest of your face. It is very important that you see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon because you probably have weak cartilages that need to be properly supported with surgery so you are able to achieve a more defined nasal shape.
