Question: Is it possible to just get rid of a bump without having my tip fall down?

Answer: The answer to this often asked question is – yes. There are plenty of potential rhinoplasty patients out there who simply dislike the bump on their nose. If your tip is in good position and has a nice shape, it is certainly a possibility to reshape the nose by reducing just the bump. The concern in some cases is that the tip will then fall at some point after the rhinoplasty. If you are at risk of this happening, a qualified rhinoplasty specialist would be able to pick this finding up during your consultation and recommend the appropriate intervention to minimize chances of this occurring.
