A beautiful nose is perceived as the focal point of the face, and irregularities like a bump on the nose can have a negative effect on the perception of the face. Thus, many people think about the possibility of making an aesthetic correction to their nose. When we talk about correction, the first thing that comes to mind is the cosmetic surgical procedure, the classic rhinoplasty. But this is not necessarily the only and best solution. It is also possible to correct the nasal hump in a non-surgical way.

What is a Dorsal Hump?

A dorsal hump, also known as a nasal hump or nasal bridge hump, refers to a noticeable bump or elevation along the bridge of the nose. This characteristic feature can create an irregularity in the nasal profile, detracting from the overall symmetry and aesthetics of the face. The nasal hump can be innate, meaning it is present from birth, or acquired, developing over time, particularly during periods of bone growth or as a result of nasal trauma or injury. Depending on its composition and location, the dorsal hump may consist of bony tissue, cartilaginous tissue, or a combination of both. Regardless of its specific nature, the dorsal hump corresponds to a distinct formation or deformation of the osteocartilaginous structure of the nose, contributing to an abnormally prominent angle along the nasal bridge.

We make a distinction between bumps and "pseudo-bumps." These are usually brought on by nasal trauma or surgery. The formation of a hump on the nose can be attributed to either overdevelopment of the bone that supports the nose or cartilaginous tissue, or irregularity at the intersection of these two structures. This aesthetic flaw is mostly only noticeable from a profile, yet it is nonetheless irritating.

Non-Surgical Solutions for a Dorsal Hump

Although the effects become increasingly apparent over time, facial or nasal gymnastics are unquestionably an option to think about for nasal hump removal at a minimal cost. The workouts stretch the skin instead of correcting shape or size, which helps to define the look and the face. Pressing the hump of the nose with the index finger and holding it there for around 10 seconds is a very effective exercise. For best results, it is advised to perform this at least twice a day.

Another particularly effective method is the non-surgical rhinoplasty. It is a minimally cosmetic procedure that uses dermal fillers typically hyaluronic acid injections to temporarily alter the contour of your nose. This procedure is often referred to as a liquid or non-surgical nose job. It must be carried out by a licensed, well-skilled, and experienced therapist.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) has gained a reputation as a secure, efficient, and advantageous surgical substitute. Additionally, a natural enzyme that is also present in our bodies makes it simple to dissolve HA. Thus, for individuals who are unhappy with their results or would like to use less product to get a more natural look, or even if serious complications occur, the filler can be dissolved to avoid further problems.

A non-surgical nose job has limitations in comparison to regular surgical rhinoplasty. The benefits of nonsurgical rhinoplasty in Korea, for instance, only persist for six months and your nose cannot be made smaller. Dermal fillers, however, can change some traits and temporarily smooth out bumps.

Especially when compared to surgical rhinoplasty, the liquid rhinoplasty procedure is quite simple. The doctor will inject the filler into the dorsal hump region under topical anesthesia (a numb cream), and while this is being done, a mild pinch or pressure can be felt. It might finish in as little as 15 minutes or as long as 45 minutes.

The most frequent side effects of liquid rhinoplasty are a little redness and sensitivity at the injection site for a day or two following the procedure. Others can have swelling, bruising, or even nausea. Within a week or two, full results ought to be apparent. By then, any redness or bruising should have fully subsided.

A prominent facial feature and the focus of many problems, the nose is clearly noticed by people around us. When considering a way to correct a nose flaw, cosmetic surgery is likely the first option that comes to mind. There are, however, alternative methods to avoid the operating room and to make minor changes, including mainly dermal fillers. Therefore, if you want to preview your nose before committing to surgery, this might be helpful, as it is less expensive and reversible in case you do not like the results.

Considerations and Limitations

While non-surgical approaches offer potential benefits, it is essential to consider their limitations and potential risks. Non-surgical dorsal hump reduction procedures and other injectable treatments provide temporary results and may require maintenance sessions to sustain the desired outcome. Additionally, not all dorsal humps are suitable for non-surgical correction, particularly those involving significant bony deformities.

Conclusion

In conclusion, reducing a dorsal hump without surgery is indeed possible through various non-surgical techniques. From nasal exercises to injectable fillers and innovative technologies, individuals have options for enhancing their nasal aesthetics without undergoing invasive procedures. However, it is crucial to consult with a qualified and experienced practitioner to determine the most suitable approach based on individual anatomy, goals, and expectations. With careful consideration and expert guidance, non-surgical dorsal hump reduction can offer satisfying results and improved facial harmony.
