I broke my nose about a year ago and would really like the bump removed now
Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your pictures. You are a great candidate for Rhinoplasty surgery. The bump can easily be removed and this will give your nose a nice, natural slope. I use an open technique called Piezo which is using ultrasonic waves instead of the hammer and chisel technique. Therefore, swelling and bruising will be minimal. Best wishes.

Answer: Rhinoplasty: what you should know Thank you for your question and photos. Since you’re only interested in reducing the appearance of the bump, nasal rasps can be used to file it down safely while preserving the rest of your nose structure. Although the changes you’re interested in are minimal, it’s important to note that rhinoplasty is one of the most complex of all plastic surgery procedures, requiring experience, skill, and even artistry to achieve an optimal outcome. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon, with expertise in rhinoplasty techniques, who can answer any questions you may have and suggest the best approach to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Answer: Is it possible to remove a dorsal hump without any other changes? Is it possible to remove a dorsal hump without any other changes? The simple answer is, yes. If you wish only to remove the dorsal hub and not address any other features of the nose, that makes for a very simple rhinoplasty. Bear in mind that all the features of the nose must be in harmony so if there are other features that would not be in harmony by just removing the dorsal hump, then they should be addressed as well. That determination can be made in consultation where the size and relationship of the tip, nostrils, length, projection, etc. can all be assessed

Answer: Bump after broken nose In consideration of rhinoplasty after a broken nose, there are multiple variables to consider. Without a front view, it is hard to tell if the nose is crooked. You may be having difficulties breathing and a shifted septum, which can be addressed during surgery. Based on your photographs, you do have a transition at the top of the nose where it is sunken in, creating the appearance of a bump. It is possible just to deal with the bump on your nose. The surgical plan would depend on how the broken nose created the bump and may require imaging like CT scan to assess the nasal structure. One option is to file down the bump. The nose is like a tripod, so with removal of a large bump, the sides may not touch the top. You may need the nose bones broken to close that gap. Another option is to fill the area above the bump, where the forehead transitions to the nose. That would create a smooth contour down the length of your nose. This can be done surgically with crushed cartilage or non-surgically with filler. The final plan would depend on your aesthetic goals and review of her pre-injury photographs.
