My question is about the size/shape of the nose and the dorsal hump. If my father has a dorsal hump and I do as well, will my hump/nose grow to be the exact same size as his, or might mine be smaller/more minor? This is all keeping in mind that my mother does not have this problem. I guess what I am trying to ask is that if I inherited my father's nose, will it look exactly like his, or is deviation possible? Thanks.
