Very thin skin, septum deviated, pointed tip and one side looks different from the other side. What do you recommend? (photos)

Asked By:neets25 in Devon, UK

What would you recommend so that my nose is less pointed and long? I have very thin skin on my nose and septum is deviated which is more noticeable in photos than in person. I want a small gradual projection with nose tip reduction but I've been told that it's going to be a difficult surgery because of my nose tip and also the results may be variable due to my thin skin. I'm so torn as to whether I should risk it or not.
