Im not looking for a major change in looks but just to correct the look of my nose as it really looks ugly from the right side. I was told that I could fix this problem without breaking major bones (no osteotomy) and thats by fix the tip of nose as its going downwards and rasp it little bit.

The results I'm looking for are natural in a way nobody will notice a huge difference.
