Hi, I just thought i'd ask if there's a way to get rid of this redness on-top of my nose, i don't really know what it is, i smacked my nose playing football a few years ago and since then I've had a red mark on-top of a small bump, also the bump, would it be possible to remove since i didn't really have it until i was about 17, it just doesn't feel right with it on my nose! Thanks!
