Candidate for Tip plasty only? (Photo)

Asked By:discovery4050 in Boston, Massachusetts

40 year old female with a bulbous nose tip. I love my side profile and nose bridge! My nose tip is bulbous and widens and droops when I smile making my nose look larger than it is. The droop is getting worse with age. Can the tip be refined without touching the rest? Thanks!
