Shaving Down the Dorsal Hump

A surgical nose surgery is frequently chosen to remove the dorsal hump.
The majority of dorsal humps are made up of roughly two thirds cartilage and one third bone, however this can vary considerably depending on a person's morphology.
To get rid of the hump, it needs to be reduced in size.
In order to correct the open roof (flat-top) nasal deformity caused by the removal of the hump, osteotomies must be performed in the nasal bones.
The most frequent justification for nasal contouring is the dorsal hump.

A rhinoplasty, also known as a "nose job," is a cosmetic plastic surgery technique used to reshape the nose and improve other facial features.
In our medical practice, it is the most frequently carried out procedure.
Our board-certified facial plastic surgeon aims to create a very natural appearance by balancing the new nose with the other facial features and the components of the face as a whole.
The majority of plastic surgeons concur that many undesired characteristics can be altered.
A dorsal hump (bump) can be removed, a large, boxy nasal tip can be refined, and a crooked, possibly fractured, nasal tip can be narrowed if it is too wide.
Functional breathing issues can be treated concurrently with cosmetic surgery if they exist.
