Hello, I've been unhappy with my nose my whole life and decided to get it fixed. It's big with a bump, and on my small and narrow face, it looks even bigger. The bone is so big at the bridge that I literally never had sunglasses that fit me good, without leaving red marks on the sides.

What realistically can I expect?
