Is it possible to slightly reduce dorsal hump without completely removing it? (Photo)

It is certainly possible to leave some of a dorsal hump in place and focus primarily on the tip. Many of our Middle Eastern patients ask for exactly that. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert for consultation that can do computer imaging on the same day.

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can see from your photos your skin type is a thick skin structure, the healing process may take 1.5 - 2 years to heal compared to a normal skin, but it is possible to achieve a much better result with a single operation. For get rid of this image I recommend you rhinoplasty surgery.
Best Regards!

Many of our male patients do not want to have a curve on their bridge after surgery. I agree that a small bump is preferable to an over curved nasal profile appearance. Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who offer computer Imaging. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you may benefit from a rhinoplasty. Your dorsal hump could be reduced without completely removing it if that is your goal. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.

You get to determine the goal of the operation. It's okay to look for tip narrowing and elevation, and also take-down of some of the hump, while leaving some hump. You figure out exactly what to do with morphs before surgery. In any nose they are crucial, but in yours particularly, because you and the surgeon must be on exactly the same page about how much to change your bridge.

Hi @cheerful633447, Great question! Rhinoplasty is completely customizable so yes you could request to keep some aspects of your nose that you like or a smaller hump. I recommend a consultation with a facial plastic surgeon who is a rhinoplasty specialist. Best of luck, Dr. Ghazizadeh

If you're trying to leave a dorsal hump, your nose will look half-baked, and it will look like you have a poorly performed rhinoplasty. You can certainly leave a straight, strong profile if that's what you desire, in addition to lifting the nasal tip.
