Can I Get Rid of Nose Hump Without a Surgery? (photo)

It’s not unusual for patients to develop significant dorsal
humps following nasal trauma. These humps consist of displaced bone and
cartilage and adversely impact facial aesthetics. For this reason patient’s are
often eager to have them removed.Unfortunately
there are no non-surgical methods for removing dorsal humps. Occasionally
injectable fillers can be utilized to disguise them, but this only works when
they’re small. This approach also needs to be repeated at frequent intervals.Under
these circumstances patients with significant post traumatic nasal deformities
are better off consulting a board certified plastic surgeon. This surgeon
should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses their concerns.

Fillers can be a great simple tool to soften the nose. A computer imager can show you possible results.

  You may want to place filler in the chin area to advance the chin forward. This may help to make the nose look smaller.

You have a significant nasal hump consisting of bone AND cartilage, and with due respect to my colleagues, fillers (any kind) or cortisone (any strength) will not help this to any degree you will find acceptable.

Rhinoplasty is your only and best action; thus, you must find a surgeon who is experienced and certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery or the American Board of Otolaryngology (Facial Plastic Surgery) to do an excellent job for you. This will require a full, complete rhinoplasty with osteotomies, but the exact details are best left to your examining surgeon. Good luck!

With small dorsal nose humps, injectable dermal fillers injected into the radix and bridge of the nose (just above the hump) can help to mask the hump. However, there is a limit to the amount that can be injected safely. For moderate sized (such as yours) to large humps, the improvement from fillers would be smaller and surgical correction plays a much stronger role. If your goal is to have a perfectly straight nose in profile view, then there is no doubt that rhinoplasty surgery is the only option. Otherwise, if you'd like to see a small subtle improvement, then there may be a role for filler which, in the hands of a board certified plastic surgeon, is a safe, no down-time office procedure. Good luck!

I think you will need surgery to reduce the hump. Sometimes fillers can be aded to the low areas above and below the hump in order to hide the hump (non-surgeical nose job). But I think in your case the hump is too big. Don't hit your nose - it won't work and only cause more of a problem.

The short answer is no you can not fix this one without surgery.  To me, it looks more like developmental than traumatic in origin, but no matter.

Due to the profile picture, adding fillers won't help due to the aesthetic of the nose.  On the bright side, if all other parts of the nose are acceptable to you, a simple procedure of filing it down may be all that is needed.  This can not be guaranteed without an exam of course.

Do yourself a favor and quit pushing on it- may hurt yourself, and it will do no good.

Sorry for the news.

Thanks for the photo. The only way that you are going to correct your "hump" is with surgery. You should seek one or more consultations with board certified plastic surgeons in your area and then make your decisions.

You will need surgery to correct this hump. It is both bony and cartilaginous. You should have a nice result though.

As you can read the only true option is surgery to reduce the hump. best to see in person a boarded PS in your area.
