Am I candidate for a rhinoplasty? Have had a bump at the side of my nose since a small child. (photos)

Thank you for your question. I do see what you are talking about. It is difficult to tell what is going on without an in-person examination. I recommend consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon to have an in-person consultation to discuss options going forward. Best of luck!

Dear ccla27,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from rhinoplasty. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear ccla27,This can be corrected with rhinoplasty using correct techniques and the required level of shaving. To understand the scale of the work to be done and determine our approach, A CT scan of paranasal sinuses (PNS) on the Coronal/Axial planes is required.
