Would it be possible to only file down the side of my nose "shoulders"? (Photo)

Asked By:Terrific983251 in Stockholms län, Sverige

I would like remove the bony bumps on the side of the nose. I don't really want to change my profile (ofc it will change abit). Would it be possible without breaking the nose? My dorsal bone is wider the the middle part anyway so it might balance out.

Answer: I do not think it is feasible to file those bumps without performing osteotomies.
