I know that if you have an overprojected and downturned nose tip you can deproject and rotate it to make your nose look shorter from the front.
But what about the nasal bridge?
As far as i know, there is no procedure to reduce it, but what's the reason for it?
You want to shorten the nasal bones and the frontal process of maxilla:

If you were to shorten your nose bridge you would need the bring the nasal cartilages and the anterior nasal spine upwards to keep your nasolabial angle the same.
Now i guess that the amount of length you could shorten the nose would be limited by the nasal cavities:
Also i am pretty sure you can shorten the nasal septum, i have seen surgeons on Realself say that you can.
