Is it difficult to shorten the nose tip (not nose bridge)? Doctors would tell me they couldn’t do it for my nose.

Asked By:Anon375375

My nose projects too much, thus creating imbalance in my face. I have a somewhat weak chin and don’t want injections or implant and instead want a shorter nose tip (aside from the nose bridge). Is it not feasible for my nose tip to get shorter or are all the doctors I went to unable to create that? What’s difficult about shortening the nose tip?
