Am I Being Realistic with Rhinoplasty Expectations, Can This Be Done

eliza bethany
I want an alar based reduction, deprojection and a slight round tip ( nose is very pointy) My surgeon said he can do this but while he is going to deproject he will build up my nose so it doesn't look flat once he takes the cartilage out etc Am I being realistic? Would you do the same as my surgeon?
