How do I get rid of my nose hump without plastic surgery or fillers? (Photo)

Question

When I was little I bumped my nose a lot and developed an ugly hump on my nose. How do I get rid of it??

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

you are a candidate for fillers, I tend to use a lot of voluma for this type of procedure.  Seek an expert for treatment.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Nonsurgical rhinoplasty would be able to create a straighter profile and frontal view for your nose. The limitation with nonsurgical rhinoplasty is that it can only add volume, but can not take any away. By slightly raising the bridge of your nose above the hump it will camouflage the hump.Seeking an expert in nonsurgical rhinoplasty will give you the best result in the safest manner.

Dara Liotta, MD, FACS · Answer

In a “liquid”, or “non-surgical” rhinoplasty, a combination of Botox and facial fillers are injected to achieve the desired result without a scalpel. In the right candidate, a Liquid Rhinoplasty can even out irregularities along the bridge of the nose, make the nose appear straighter, raise the nasal bridge, or camouflage a dorsal hump on the profile view. Although you are technically adding volume with filler, the end result is often a nose that appears smaller and more refined. The idea is to change the way light hits your nose, creating a kind of semi-permanent contour makeup on your nose. During a liquid procedure, ice is used to numb the skin, and small needles are used to inject filler and/or Botox. Not all nose concerns are amenable to liquid, non-surgical, rhinoplasty, but if you’re among the lucky (or unlucky, depending upon how you look at it), you can skip the pain and recovery of surgery. Results are dramatic and instant. I suggest seeking out a board certified injector with experience doing non-surgical rhinoplasties, as there is definitely a learning curve. Good luck!

The dorsal hump is composed of both bone and cartilage which must be shaved down in order to remove it. There is no other way then a surgical rhinoplasty procedure. For many examples  and more information, please  see the link and the video below

Cain R. Linville, MD, FACS · Answer

Sorry there's really no way to decrease or take away anatomical structures line the bony or cartilage portion of the nose without physically resecting them. Thus, you need a rhinoplasty. However, based on your limited pic, you don't need a whole lot done. Sorry! I wish there was a legitimate non surgical option, but there isn't.
