I had a middle eastern nose, bulbous with hump. Now I have a gap between my bones. On my left near my eye the bone shows. There is a mark like I wore glasses. Is it over resected dorsum or can this be closed with osteotomies, no grafts? Also there is a dent in middle. Is it too much cartilage removal or just a reason of open roof deformity?
