I'm looking to book a consultation for the summer. the problem is I would like to reduce the width of my nose but keep the shape of it. basically I would like my front profile to change but not my side profile( but also I'm okay with a little change as long as it means I get to keep the bump) is it possible to perform such a surgery or does width reduction require the bump to be removed as well? are my expectations doable or is there no surgeon who would be willing to do the this?
