Bumpy Nose Correction with Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is the sole cosmetic procedure that can help minimize or eliminate the bumps and completely straighten the bridge of the nose. But, how? Let’s find out in this post the details about Rhinoplasty in Delhi for bumpy nose correction.

A prominent nose bridge bump or nasal hump is a very common nose shape concern that can easily be sighted by others. It can make the nose look crooked, whether viewed from the side or the front face profile. One should not ignore the correction of a bumpy nose, as it contributes to major issues with facial symmetry and overall facial attractiveness.

We hope the readers of this post make a well-informed decision after having a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon in this regard.

What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, or nose job, is a cosmetic operation of the nose to correct its size, shape, symmetry, or overall appearance. An individual is able to achieve his or her aesthetic goals by undergoing modifications, additions, or removals of their nasal bones and cartilages. It aims to create a more aesthetic facial profile.

How Rhinoplasty Resolves Bumpy Nose Concerns with Success?

For reducing the dorsal hump prominence, a surgeon carefully sculpts the underlying bone and cartilages of the nasal bridge. In some cases, to achieve a more balanced, smoothed-out nose appearance, a surgeon may have to create controlled cuts in the nasal bones (osteotomies) to reposition or reset them.

While for other cases, when a bulbous or wide nose tip has to be fixed, a surgeon trims and reshapes the lower lateral cartilage.

However, if the nasal bridge appears too narrow following hump or bump removal, a surgeon will harvest cartilage grafts from the nasal septum to add width and support to the nose.

Whatever may be the case, the surgery is performed only under the effect of anaesthesia to ensure no discomfort throughout the surgery. The extent of nasal structure removed or revised is variable amongst patients.

Following the correction, a nasal splint is placed on the nose to protect it and maintain its new shape.

Different Rhinoplasty Options

There are two surgical techniques by which a bumpy nose can be corrected:

• Open Rhinoplasty- In this approach, an incision is created by the surgeon along the columella- the skin separating the nostrils. Through this cut, the surgeon gets more control over making necessary corrections to the nose profile.
• Closed Rhinoplasty- In this approach, incisions are created inside the nostrils with the help of fine surgical tools, and then revisions are made.

A surgeon decides which method to choose after examining the patient’s nose and listening to their concern.

Is Rhinoplasty Safe for Anyone with a Nose Bump?

Suitable candidates for bumpy nose correction with rhinoplasty are adults with a fully formed nose who are conscious of their nose appearance and are ready to undergo surgery. They should not be experiencing any active infection or allergy, a respiratory illness, or other medical problems that could interfere with their treatment outcomes.

Also, they must hold realistic expectations from the surgery outcome and know about the surgery-associated risks and benefits that are shared in detail during the initial consultation with the surgeon.

The Rhinoplasty Results and Recovery

Following rhinoplasty, the nasal bridge will appear smooth, and the nose will look straight and sculpted. The desired effects are usually seen after the swelling subsides and the nose completely heals.

After getting free of nasal bumps, the patient will typically feel much more confident about their overall looks and less self-conscious around others. A significant difference will be seen in how the world perceives the patient and how the patient looks at the world.

The recovery period of rhinoplasty can last up to a year, when the full nose refinement becomes apparent. The patient will have to take a minimum of a week off from their daily routine and work and be prepared to face some pain and discomfort, swelling, bruising, and nasal congestion for a few days.

After the first 1–2 weeks, a follow-up has to be attended by the patient to undergo the removal of sutures and packing material.
