Would rhinoplasty/CO2 laser help with my bulbous tip and thick skin? (Photo)

Asked By:gunner1066 in Warszawa, Województwo mazowieckie, Polska

My cartilaginous nose is noticeably wider than my bony nose. I wish the tip of my nose was as narrow as my bony part of the nose. I presume my nasal skin is too thick. If the bulbous tip is fully or mostly caused by the thick skin can I thin the skin and achieve my goal by means of C02 laser therapy? Or am I just stuck with tip plasty?
