Thick nasal skin? Large pores, blackheads. Rhinoplasty? (photo)

I understand the only way to know is through a consultation, but when I asked a surgeon I went to, he acted like it wasn't that important and that there was no way to determine skin thickness, but told me mine was probably medium thickness. I am an 18-year-old female, Caucasian. Since I have fair skin, but lots of blackheads/large pores, is my skin likely pretty thick? If so, can rhinoplasty do much for me? My tip is rather bulbous, and my nose is large. The nasolabial angle is also 90 degrees.
