What is Dorsal Hump Reduction?

Dorsal hump reduction is a rhinoplasty procedure aimed at removing or reducing the bump (hump) that appears along the top of the nose, typically located at the nasal bridge. This hump can be a genetic trait or a result of past trauma. The procedure reshapes the nose to create a smoother, more aesthetically pleasing profile.

This surgery is particularly popular among individuals who want to:

• Remove the bump on the nasal bridge
• Achieve a more balanced and harmonious facial profile
• Enhance their self-confidence and facial symmetry

At VVLY Plastic Surgery, we utilize advanced techniques in dorsal hump reduction to ensure the results are natural, precise, and long-lasting.

The Dorsal Hump Reduction Procedure

The dorsal hump reduction procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect during the surgery:

1. Consultation: During your initial consultation, our surgeons will evaluate your nose and facial features. We will discuss your desired outcome and determine if dorsal hump reduction is the right option for you.
2. Procedure Overview: The surgery involves making small incisions to remove or reshape the excess cartilage and bone that form the hump on the nasal bridge. In some cases, the incision may be inside the nose (closed rhinoplasty), while other cases may require an external incision (open rhinoplasty) for better access and precision.
3. Shaping the Nose: After removing the hump, the remaining nasal structures are reshaped to create a smooth and balanced appearance. The nose is carefully refined to match the contours of your face.
4. Closure and Recovery: Once the reshaping is complete, the incisions are closed, and the nose is bandaged to support the healing process.

Recovery After Dorsal Hump Reduction

Recovery after dorsal hump reduction is typically straightforward, though there are some important considerations:

• Swelling and Bruising: Swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes are common after surgery. These symptoms should gradually subside within a few weeks.
• Activity Restrictions: It is important to avoid strenuous activities and protect your nose from impact during the initial recovery period.
• Follow-Up Care: We will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress and ensure that your new nose is settling into its final shape.

Why Dorsal Hump Reduction Is the Best Choice for a Balanced Nose

If you have a dorsal hump and feel that it affects your overall facial harmony, dorsal hump reduction is a great option to consider. By removing or reshaping the hump, this procedure restores balance to your face, making your features appear more proportionate and enhancing your overall aesthetic.

Additionally, if you’ve had a previous rhinoplasty and are dissatisfied with the results, dorsal hump reduction can also be used as a revision technique to improve your nose's appearance.
