What can be done to make my nose straight?
Thank you for your question and photo.
Judging from the one side view photo it would appear that you have a small hump on your nose. It is difficult to give you a good answer with just one photo that does not reveal the rest of your face. It is very important to have a nose that fits the rest of your face. You could ether have the small hump removed or you could have the hump "hidden" by filling the area above the hump either temporarily using...

What can be done to straighten a nose
There is a hump that is present at the bony cartilaginous junction of the nose. This means that the hump is composed of both bone and cartilage that would need to be shaved down. Once this is shaved down, osteotomies would most likely be performed to prevent an open roof deformity from occurring. Tip cartilages can be adjusted as well.

Considering the picture you submitted, I assume you're concerned about the hump present on your bridge. This can be surgically removed. Unless you have had nasal trauma, your genes have caused your nose to be in this shape.

Small bump
Your nose is not bad at all. There are a couple of different things that can be done to correct the small little dip in your nose. This is the perfect set up to try a non-surgeical nose correction with fillers. It's safe, relatively inexpensive and will last about a year or so. If you like the result it could be done permanently with a cartilage graft. If you think the "bump" needs to be lowered than you will need surgery. But the bump is not bad and surgery should be very...

Straightening the Dorsum of the Nose
It is impossible to give you a complete diagnosis of your nose based on one off centered side viewed when to ethically do so would require a full nose examination or in the least a set of 5 photographs covering every nose angle.
Assuming there are no side to side deviations of the septum, I assume you are basically bothered by the small hump along the upper portion of the nose. The location of the hump suggests it is made up of both cartilage and bone. To smooth it down permanently would...
