Is a Bulbous Nose with a Thin Bridge a Problem with the Skin or Actual Bone? (photo)

Valentinaxoxo
Hi, I'm an 18 year old teenager and I've never liked my nose. I've always found it bulbous and not matching with my face. My friend once tried to thin it with photoshop and she said that a thinner nose really actually didn't fit my face. My nose is actually a bit thinner at the upper bridge, but then gets bulbous. Should I get a rhinoplasty to correct this? If so, how much would the procedure cost? Also, is this a problem with my skin or bone structure?
