Is it possible to get your dorsal hump shaved without breaking the nose if the bump is very slight? (Photos)

kaylarene4
My dorsal hump is very slight and I just want to make my nose straight. If it would cost significantly less I would prefer to go that route. However, I’m also curious if it is possible to slightly shave the sides of my dorsal hump as well? Also, my nose slightly droops when I smile so I’m wondering if fixing the hump might disguise the droop? I will provide photos to have a reference.
