What's the Best Way to Fix a Natural Ski-jump Nose?

Mia Claire
What's the best way to correct a natural ski-jump nose? I am fair with thin skin and petite with delicate features. I feel that my nose (the tip is the problem) does not go with my face. My nose seems slightly upturned and my nostrils are quite long and narrow. Ideally, I'd like to just reduce the tip a bit (nothing pointy looking) and make it connect more smoothly to the rest of the nose (so that my nose has more of a straight line, rather than jutting out as it does now). What are my options?
