Is it possible to get a smaller nose as a Middle Eastern woman?

April 20, 2019

I am middle Eastern so I have thick skin on my nose. I also have alot of issues regarding my nose. I have a deviated septum, a bump, my nose is collapsed on the left side, a bulbous tip, and wide nostrils. Is it possible to receive a smaller nose even though I have all these issues. Also, I know it would be unrealistic to expect to have a very small nose but how small would I be able to go? Thank you
