Would the Removal of a Septal Bone Spur Alter the Appearance of My Nose?

phoenixgurl
I recently had an MRI done because I have sinus problems and it revealed a large septal bone spur. Would the removal of the septal spur alter the appearance of my nose? Could the bump be from the septal spur or is it part of my nasal bone? I have a small bump on my nose I would like removed as well as improving sinus function. Thanks
