Removing the nasal bump would require a rhinoplasty. However, it looks like you need other parts of the nose, such as the tip, worked on as well. You should go on a few consults with surgeons in your area known fir their rhinoplasty work to determine which option would work best for you. Estimated fist would be from $7000 to $9000, including all costs.
I think that a closed rhinoplasty to remove the small hump would provide a nice improvement for you.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
The best way to do this and by far the cheapest in the long run is with surgery. There's no other way to remove the bump. Can be camouflaged with fillers but this is expensive and must be repeated yearly and often causes bumps irregularity and makes the nose look bigger. So I would not advise that for you.
The dorsal hump is composed of both bone and cartilage and must be surgically shaved down in order to remove it permanently. We do not recommend temporary fillers placed in the nose due to significant complications that can occur with their placement. Once the dorsal hump has been shaved down, osteotomies of the nasal bones are then required. for many examples of surgical hump removal and our price list, please see the link below
Small nasal bumps can be improved with non-surgical rhinoplasty--it depends on how big the nasal bump is. Often times This can be done in office with very little downtime. Please consult with a board certified specialist who can assist you with achieving the results you seek. 3-dimensional computer imaging can help you visualize what you may look like afterwards.
Hyaluronic fillers can elevate the depressed area above thehump, called the radix, and camouflage the hump producing a modest cosmeticimprovement. They generally last 6-9 months. Micro-fat grafts are a morepermanent filler, but require a more involved procedure. There are syntheticpermanent fillers, but most plastic surgeons would warn against using them,especially in the nasal area because of the long term potential complications.Fillers will not produce the same long term balanced cosmetic result that canbe achieved with an artistically performed natural appearing rhinoplasty.Starting with a hyaluronic filler is a reasonable first step. If you like theresult and want something more permanent you can always proceed with one of theother options.Keep in mind that following advice from asurgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to dobased on limited two dimensional photos without examining you, physicallyfeeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medicalhistory and discussing the pros and cons of each procedure would not be in yourbest interest. I would suggest that you find a surgeon certified by theAmerican Board of American Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member ofThe American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or facial plasticsurgeon (otolaryngologist) that you trust and are comfortable with. You shoulddiscuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.Robert Singer, MD FACSLa Jolla, California
You can camouflage your hump without surgery using fillers but you can permanently improve your nasal contour with surgery which will ultimately cost a lot less because you will avoid repeated treatments over the rest of your life.
You cannot remove the bump without surgery, but it is easy to camoflage the bump by filling in around it with filler injections. This would have to be repeated every 8-12 months probably.
There is a very small risk of infection with rhinoplasty surgery, as there is with any surgical procedure. The risk is elevated if implants are placed during the proceure. Careful adherence to sterile processes, which is observed in all operating facilities, helps keep the risk as small as it is...
Thank you for your question. This is commonly asked, and unfortunately, a lot of misinformation exist.First off, the terminology is incorrectly used by many surgeons. The best way to talk about these approaches is endonasal ("closed") versus external ("open"). The term 'closed'...
I think you have a very simple way to solve your problem. If you've not been treated as you want, just get an opinion from another nasal specialist.
