The rhinoplasty procedure usually involves shaving down the dorsal hump which is composed of both bone and cartilage. Medial and lateral osteotomies of the nasal bones are required to close the open roof deformity and prevent a flat top nose. Some minor  tip adjustments may also be necessary. It's also important to release the depressor septi ligament to prevent the tip from drooping upon smiling.
