Is Nasal Hump Reduction a Simple Procedure?

Hi! I am a 20-year-old female. I have come to the conclusion that the only thing I don't like about my nose is the nasal hump. I wouldn't say the hump is huge, but it is noticable.
I would like to have the hump reduced, but do not want a sloping nose (it wouldn't match my other features); I want a very natural looking nose.
I want to know how difficult this will be. Will my nose need to be broken? Since I only want my hump reduced and absolutley nothing else, so will the healing time be faster or will bruising be less apparent?

A small nasal-hump can be camouflaged with a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty.
If your nasal hump is small, and if that's your only concern, an Injectable Filler Treatment may be worth investigating. Injectable Fillers placed above and below a small hump will make your profile appear straight. If your nose is on the small side, this works well. If your nose is a bit large, Fillers will make it larger necessitating Rhinoplasty surgery. I've attached a link demonstrating this technique. I hope this helps, and best regards.
 

Nasal Hump Reduction - Simple or Complex
Obviously, any type of nasal cosmetic rhinoplasty is not a “simple” operative procedure. Even reducing a nasal hump takes significant operative skills since it is a surgical procedure of millimeters. The goal is to reshape the dorsum to make it harmonious with the face and have a smooth dorsum as it transcends into the tip without any irregularities. There is no such thing as a simple nasal reduction or a simple rhinoplasty.
 

It's definitely possible for you to have a natural look.  I would recommend you see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon for consultation and discuss with him/her what you would like your nose to look like.  Sometimes bringing photos of noses you like helps and many surgeons have computer programs that do recreations of what your nose may look like.  Regardless, good communication with your surgeon is critical.  He/she will be able to help you set realistic... more

Nasal Hump Reduction - How Easy Is It?
Reducing the bridge of your nose will probably be simple. The question is how much does the bridge need to be reduced. For very minimal amounts of reduction it may be possible to simply reduce the bridge and this would leave minimal swelling and virtually no bruising. Larger reductions leave the nose looking too wide from the frontal view and this is when it is necessary to narrow the appearance of the nose by mobilizing the nasal bones with a controlled fracture where the nasal bones meet... more

Nasal hump reduction usually requires breaking nasal bones
At the time of a rhinoplasty when a hump reduction is performed, the most likely result will be a flattop open roof nasal deformity. The nasal sidewalls will have to be reset inwards to close the open roof to give a natural-looking nose. Otherwise, the nose will not look right
