If you want to change the size of an individual bullet:
- position the cursor just after the bullet (that means before the first 
character of the text)
- move the cursor left one position with the left arrow. Now the bullet is 
selected
- change the font size (and perhaps the font also)

If you want to do it consistently, use a list style (Styles and Templates, 
fifth icon)
It is advisable anyway to use styles. If you have given your bulleted paragraph 
for example List 1 style, and change the bullet size and/or font, it will be 
remembered in the list style.

I think it is best to do this together with a paragraph style, for example 
paragraph style List 1. When you edit the paragraph style, there is a tab 
"Outline & Numbering", where you can select the Numbering Style. Numbering 
style is what is called in the Styles and Formatting dialog: List Styles. A bit 
confusing, I think, but List style and Numbering style are just two aspects of 
the same thing. List style is for bullets and Numbering style is for numbers, 
but they basically belong together. And then, of course, to make the confusion 
even worse, in the Format menu they are called "Bullets and Numbering".
