Asked By:bodyimageissues in San Jose, California

I do not like the width of my nose i was wondering if i could reduce the width of it with local anesthesia? (No surgery at all would be great but I hear it's unlikely) My personal issues isn't in the bridge of the nose but the fatness in the tip & width when I'm looking straight forward (especially when I smile). I just want a cute little button nose (sorry it's the best I can describe it) nothing too specific just smaller. Also considering lip injections to make nose look smaller in comparison.
