Thick nose skin Rhinoplasty, is it possible? (photos)

AlexN24
Hello. I am planning on getting a rhinoplasty soon. I have talked to one of my friend's father who is a plastic surgeon and he said he wouldn't do it because my skin is too thick. I would like my nose shorter and thinner, more defined. Is it possible? If so, to what extent?
