Options to repair slightly sunken middle portion of nose (photo)

January 11, 2017
Asked By:Joannpm in Wantagh, NY

Can the collapsed middle portion of my nose be repaired without altering the hump or the tip? Not sure if this is the result of repeated injuries or if it just grew this way. (Note that it's much worse on the right side). Would this be a complicated procedure? Is it worth getting rhinoplasty for such a small change? I know I could get the bump and the tip done and the width taken in and make it more upturned but I'm not interested in having disney princess nose. Can this collapse cause pain?
