Whenever we file a bump off the bridge of the nose, we immediately see that the patients bridge becomes wider at the top. This is then corrected by performing osteotomies. In general, procedures like you are talking about maybe performed with general anesthetic and minimal inconvenience. Not perform any bony work in the office with local anesthetic. Thank you for this question, and I hope it's helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
A couple of thoughts. The first is that I would wait another 4-5 months prior to undergoing any revision of the nose either large or small. If rasping in the office is what has been decided, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The only painful part of the procedure is the initial injection of local anesthesia. Ask your provider for an oral sedative like Valium or nitrous oxide to take the edge off.
If the hump is small and localized, rasping is a great option for refining your nose without going through a full revision surgery. It’s generally not painful due to local anesthesia, and recovery tends to be quick with minimal discomfort.Before your procedure, make sure to ask your surgeon about what to expect specifically based on your anatomy and skin type, but it sounds like you’re in good hands.
It’s possible to adequately anesthetize the nose completely to do all aspects of rhinoplasty surgery under local anesthesia only.Potential discomfort depends on technique used for both injecting, local anesthetic and surgical procedure.Best,Mats Hagstrom MD

Hello!Thank you for your question As far as I can understans from your question If you can send 2 photos at 95 degree angles from the front and side profile, we can make an accurate assessment. Best Regards!
Please consider asking you a question with both before and after photos. You do not appear to have a significantly bulbous nasal tip appearance, and I am questioning the utility of steroid injections at this point. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph
In primary, uncomplicated rhinoplasty this would be exceedingly rare if the operation is being performed by a well-trained surgeon who understands the anatomy and complexity of the nose. Skin necrosis becomes more of a concern in patients who have undergone prior surgeries with an alteration of...
Sometimes a crooked nose will become straight after performing lateral osteotomies during rhinoplasty surgery. If this is not the case, and if there is a persistent indentation along one of the side walls, a cartilage spreader graft is typically placed in between the nasal septum and upper...
