Have you heard of 'mini' rhinoplasty where the dorsal hump is shaved down? (Photos)

Asked By:addib in Grand Junction, CO

The only thing I don't like about my nose is the dorsal hump. Don't care that my nose droops slightly, I like that. From my understanding, it's possible to shave down the dorsal hump as an isolated procedure, but this may cause the bridge of the nose to look wider? I have a pretty narrow bridge that gives a pinched appearance. I guess I'm wondering, does anyone preform, or heard of, these "mini" procedures where they just shave down the dorsal hump? Thank you!!

Answer: Well, sometimes we just take down a bump, but it's really not a great idea on your nose. More...
