What is the quickest way to correct such a deformity? is there a non surgical way or is surgery the only way? will I have to get my nose bone fractured again? what is the best way to address this problem?
Answer: Surgical rhinoplasty for broken nose Trauma to the nose can cause a displaced, or a non-displaced nasal fracture. In addition, the hump can get bigger. Also important to evaluate the upper lateral cartilages in the mid-portion of the nose which can become fractured off of the nasal bones and collapse inward. A deviated septum can result in there is a fracture of the nasal septum. A surgical rhinoplasty is required to straighten a crooked nose. The dorsal hump is composed of both bone and cartilage which must be shaved down in order to remove it. Osteotomies of the nasal bones are required to narrow and straighten them.

Answer: The area you circled on your nose, after trauma, looks more like a bump than a dent. In many cases an indentation along the bridge of the nose may be filled following trauma - a non-surgical rhinoplasty with injectable fillers. Your photos appear to reveal a bump, so your candidacy for injectable fillers is questionable. Consider consulting with a reputable rhinoplasty specialist so you can see what might be best for you.Hope this helps.Dr Joseph

Answer: Non-surgical rhinoplasty using dermal fillers can repair nasal trauma quickly Hi slimbrain27, Basketball really is a contact sport! I'm very sorry to hear about your injury. I’ve seen cases like yours numerous times. Most often, I recommend using non-surgical augmentation with dermal fillers in order to delicately reshape and repair irregular nasal structure.In general, fillers can be helpful with smoothing out most nasal contours by adding volume to sunken areas. Augmenting the nasal bridge’s center can recreate a sense of definition that some patient’s noses lack due to various circumstances.Speaking about your case in particular, it’s a bit tricky to see the area beneath the dip because of the red circle that’s highlighting it. However, I will say that fillers can be used to straighten the contour of a nose by filling in the concave areas above and below the dent. The nasal tip looks like it could use a little definition as well.Learn more about non-surgical rhinoplasty in the video I’ve attached. Hope this helps. Good luck in your search!Stay Beautiful,Dr. Mabrie

Answer: Traumatic Nasal Deformity The quickest and best way to address this issue is to seek consultation from a Board Certified Surgeon that treats facial trauma, and preferably, one that also understands rhinoplasty. Unfortunately, a nasal fracture of this magnitude is a surgical problem, and it would BEST be addressed within the first 10 days after the injury. This is the current standard of care. Leaving the fracture for longer may result in permanent breathing issues, nasal bleeding, visual deformities, and further nasal twisting and bending with time.
