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.
