First off, my nose is bulbous, my skin is thick, and my nasal bridge is a bit low I heard that if a bulbous nose is done naturally, you'll 100% regret it because of the shape, so I went for consultations mainly at clinics that do a more natural-glam to glamorous style I did online research for about a month, looking at reviews on a hospital-review app and other cafes, very carefully and diligently If anyone has questions about the research process, feel free to ask!
