Dorsal Hump Nose

A dorsal hump refers to a bump on the bridge of the nose. It occurs due to excess bone or cartilage in the nose — or both — and causes facial asymmetry. 

For individuals dealing with a hump nose or bump on the nose bridge, rhinoplasty surgery is available. With a dorsal hump nose job, an individual can remove, trim, or fill excess bone or cartilage in the nose, leading to a balanced, natural-looking facial appearance.

What Causes a Dorsal Hump Nose?

The cause of a dorsal hump varies. In some instances, an individual experiences nose trauma during birth that results in a bump on the nose bridge. Or, in other cases, a dorsal hump develops on its own later in life due to a nose injury. Genetics can also play a role in the development of a dorsal hump.  

Regardless of why a person experiences a hump nose, it is important to note that the condition impacts facial appearance. At the same time, a dorsal hump can be treated via rhinoplasty surgery.
