Hump Removal During Nasal Fracture Ste Back and Nasal Deviation Correction?

Hello Docs!! I had an accident about 8 months ago where i broke my nose. i am noticing issues with my breathing, especially when i work out. the bridge of my nose deviates to the left and i have a deviated septum. I'm going in for surgery in a month to correct both. I've never really been happy with the hump on my nose. The office i went to is charging me full price for a rhinoplasty to fix the hump. Does that sound right? are there surgeons who may do all 3 procedures for one price?
