What to Do with This Bulbous Nose? (photo)

Stos_88
Three main concerns I would like to address with rhinoplasty: Bulbous tip: It completely lacks any definition. It's just big and round and overpowering. How can I achieve a small, well-defined or angular tip? Overall width: The entire nose is wide. Area surrounding nostrils - I am not sure what this area is called, but the sides / wings of my nose surrounding my nostrils are bulbous as well. Is it possible to make these smaller / thinner?
