Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate for crooked nose repair The dorsal hump is usually composed of both bone and cartilage and must be filed or shaved down to remove it. Once the hump has been shaved down, osteotomies of the nasal bones are required to prevent an open roof deformity and straighten the crooked nose. Occasionally a spreader graft is placed underneath the concave upper lateral cartilage when it has been dislocated inwardly to repair the crookedness of the nose. Choose your rhinoplasty surgeon wisely, since straightening of the crooked nose is a very difficult endeavor. For many examples, please see the link and video below
