What Could Be Done to Slim my Bulbous Nose? Tip? (photo)

To reduce a wide, round nasal tip we utilize a number of techniques. Nasal tip cartilages are reshaped by removing some cartilage to weaken them. Further narrowing and shaping is obtained by using carefully placed sutures in the tip cartilages. Third, we sometimes actually use grafts of your own cartilage to support the nasal side-walls so they don't collapse from this narrowing. Nothing beats a personal consultation with a rhinoplasty expert. I also find that computer imaging helps a lot in visualizing potential result.

As for age, there is no age limit to getting a nicer looking nose.

Yes, it appears that you have very robust lower cartilages.  These can be shaped along with your tip to give you a very natural but more refined nose.  An in-person consultation is mandatory to determine the best surgery for you.  Good luck!

From your photos it looks like you have very broad, convex lower lateral cartilages. I prefer addressing this my reorienting the cartilages in a more flat configuration. Usually this involves lower lateral crural strut grafting using septal cartilage. The beauty of this approach is that it maintains very natural external tip contours and avoid long term problems such as tip pinching and breathing difficulty.

Whether only your tip would need to be address depends on the the rest of your nasal exam. If that's the only area of concern certainly just the tip can be changed.

As long as your health is good, your age is not an issue and plenty of my patients have had this type of surgery in their 50s and 60s.

If you don't wish to have any drastic changes made to your nose, then tip rhinoplasty may be the only thing you want to have done. As far as your age is concerned, don't worry about it. I happen to do rhinoplasty surgery on women your age on a very consistent basis. I have attached a link below that provides more detailed information on management of the bulbous nasal tip. I hope this provides you some further insight. 

From your photographs, you appear to be a good candidate for rhinoplasty.  Most of the shape of the nasal tip is due to cartilage that can be removed or repositioned to improve the aesthetic appearance of your nose. Your age should not be a concern since your skin will accommodate any reasonable change in the tip contour.  It is difficult  to say without an examination, but you may not require anything more than a tip rhinoplasty. Seek out a board certified plastic surgeon with good experience in rhinoplasty to discuss your treatment options.  Good luck to you.
