Rhinoplasty can shorten nose
With rhinoplasty it is possible to have a nose done shorter and straight if they only have a small dorsal hump on the nose. It will not make the nose look bigger because the projection of the nose is brought back closer to the face and made shorter.

Nose will look smaller after dorsal hump removal

Hope this helps,

Shorter nose with Rhinoplasty? Yes.
Hi JulllienJullia in UK,
The short answer to your question is yes(answers here on RealSelf.com need to be at least 25 words, so I can't keep it too short if you are wondering why I ramble on here).
Choose your rhinoplasty surgeon carefully.
Good luck and be well.
Dr. P
