I know that dorsal humps can only be removed by surgery. Can the hump grow and get worse throughout my future?

Thank you for your question.Once you achieve adulthood, the dorsal hump on your nose, which is made up of bone and cartilage, will not grow. Yes this can be removed by surgery alone.Hope this helps in answering your question.Ivo

 A rhinoplasty procedure involves shaving down the dorsal hump which is composed of both bone and cartilage, and removing it. Once the hump has been removed, it will not grow back. Sometimes in a small percentage of cases, there is some small irregularities across the bridge line which require a touch-up rasping. Osteotomies of the nasal bones are also required to narrow the bridge and close the open roof created from the hump removal.
