Rhinoplasty surgery can reduce your bump

Most bumps can be improved with Rhinoplasty Surgery. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to see if you are a candidate for this procedure.

Nasal hump reduction

If your only concern is a prominent nasal hump, then it may very well be possible to do a limited rhinoplasty to take down the hump and then close the resultant open roof that forms with osteotomies. I would consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon in your area.

I would also suggest looking at his/her before and after photos before you schedule your procedure.
