Is revision rhinoplasty going to make a significant enough change to justify a revision? (Photos)

I had a couple of consultations and went back and forth for about a month attempting to decide if revision will make significant enough improvements to make it a worthwhile venture considering the considerable cost and recovery time. Sometimes I look at my nose and think it looks "good enough" in a photo, video, mirror etc. Other times I'm so uncomfortable with my nose that I avoid social situations with typically down lighting that make my nose look worse. I was told by one doctor that my nose isn't over projected but it can be narrowed and refined but not a significant change and told by another that IT IS over projected as well as could use some narrowing and refinement. So I grapple with confusion. I'm uploading two photos of my nose where my nose bothers me less and then a bathroom photo where my nose bothers me more and appears different than the first two photos. I believe when I smile somehow the tip of my nose appears more bulbous and less refined. I would like to be comfortable with my nose regardless of if I'm smiling or bad lighting as it does affect my self esteem and life considerably enough where I'm still searching for improvement. I'd like honest feedback to help me resolve this and figure out if it's possible to get my nose to a place where I'm comfortable with it can be achieved through revision. I'd ideally like the tip to be more symmetrical/straight tip more narrow and refined as well as bridge narrower and deprojection if really could use it. Thanks!
