Yes, theoretically, if the bump is slight, then you can shave it down and do nothing else. But here are some of the thousand problems you can get into:The frontal view shows that your bones sit in somewhat of a wide position, so we would want to narrow the bones. Shaving the bump would make the nose look wider yet, and make it more important to narrow the bones. But you can't just "shave" them from the sides. The bones are only 1mm thick, so to narrow them you have to move them, not shave them. Shaving them doesn't work.Then, lowering the bump actually tends to make the nose *look* longer, as if the tip had drooped, and that second photo makes it look as though elevating your tip a bit would look nice. Just working on the bump would make your nose look longer, not shorter.Then, lessening the prominence of the bump would also tend to make the tip look wider where it sits next to the now-less-prominent bump.See? You really should have a real rhinoplasty, or leave it alone. I can also tell you that narrowing the bones, "breaking" the nose, is a nothing. In expert hands, it doesn't increase the bruising or bleeding or swelling or recovery time, and in an operation that takes (me) about four hours, that part of the operation is just a minute or two, so it's not something to fear.
