Can a "white nose" rhinoplasty surgery be done on a black person? (Photo)

kaedy
Is it possible for a black person to have surgery that will make their nose smaller and thinner. I have a medium sized nose but I want it to be more pointed and smaller. I do not want to post my own picture for privacy reasons but I have included pictures of celebrities that have a similar nose as mine. Could I realistically get a more "European'" looking nose without the nose job looking 'fake'?
