I'm not sure that I need a full or partial rhinoplasty; the tip of my nose is just a bit too long for me. Is there a procedure that can remove the tip of cartilage and how would it compare to a full reconstruction in terms of cost?

Answer: Cost to remove the tip of nose cartilage? From the limited side photographs, there appears to be an overly projected nose, and an under projecting chin. A full rhinoplasty is required to decrease the overall projection of the nose and shave down the dorsal hump which is composed mostly of cartilage, with some bone. Osteotomies will also be required in addition to a tip-plasty on the lower lateral cartilages that compose the nasal tip. Consider a chin implant to help augment the chin forward to help with facial balance and proportions from the side profile, especially with respect to the overly projecting nose.

Answer: Tip plasty is an option Nasal tip plasty is certainly an option in your case. There is extreme varaition in cost of such surgery. It will vary from $ 2000- $6000. It will depend on many factors. You want a good surgeon and not a cheap surgeon.
