My nose has been growing for the past year and a half, but now I'm 18. I wanted to know how much it would cost to file down the hump on my nose, and if this would be a good idea, according to my face balance.
When I look in the mirror at my nose, at a certain angle I see a straight line from my nose to the tip, and I don't like this. I used to have a curve in my nose, but since the bump grew, It doesn't look right.

Answer: Nose Hump removal Hump removal, on the surface, may be involved or can be very simple. An exam would help determine how much work needs to be done. A second note is when looking at cost, there is a good deal of variability with areas of larger populations, such as Chicago, New York, Atlanta, etc., have higher costs. But reputable surgeons with low revision rates and who do a significant amount of rhinoplasty surgery will also cost more. In the end, you don't want to have it done twice. Another option is a nonsurgical rhinoplasty. Filling the area above and below the bump would be a good option for you. This would give you a chance to see how things would look if you decide to have surgery or you could continue to have the filler placed into the nose every 12-24 months depending on the filler.

Answer: Hump filing procedure, cost Each individual is different. Some folks only need a little surgery, like taking down the hump. One may need cartilage trim. One may need in-fracturing. One may also want to reduce the projection of the nose. Sometimes operating on one part of the nose may effect another part. Best to see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. Visit with a few. Take a look at the before/after photos. Ask your questions. Together, you should be able to garner a plan to achieve your goals. The cost may depend on many factors, including the complexity of your nose, time spent in the OR, the city that you live in.

Answer: Cost of rhinoplasty for dorsal hump or bump This is a very common question in my practice. The answer is that a seemingly 'simple shave' of the nose is not that at all. Moreover, only a personal examination can determine if the problem is truly that the hump is too high and needs to be reduced, versus deficiency of the radix (above the hump) and/or deficiency of the midvault (below the hump). The latter is often due to trauma. Sometimes, to achieve facial harmony and ideal dorsal nasal height, we have to do a little of both.
