- drjonathansykes.com/ -- A dorsal hump nose can be genetic or can be caused by trauma to the nose. Having a straight and aquiline profile is something most people desire, which is what causes many patients to seek rhinoplasty to remove the hump.

What causes the hump?
If you look at your parents and one or both have a hump, you can thank them for your dorsal hump nose. You may also have fallen or bumped your nose as a young child. While you do not have any memory of it, this caused a callous formation. Once a person hits puberty, the nose grows a lot and that may be when the hump becomes apparent. Bumping your nose may also have deviated the septum, which becomes more obvious once a person reaches puberty.
Is a dorsal hump common?
Dorsal humps are more common in some cultures and ethnicities than others. In Eastern and Northern European populations, bumps on the nose and dorsal humps are very common while in Asia, it’s not nearly as common. So whether you have a bump or not depends on a combination of where you live, your genetics and whether or not you had trauma.
Can you get rid of a dorsal hump during surgery?
There are two ways to get rid of a dorsal hump. One involves surgery and the other is minimally invasive. With surgery, we file down the bone and cut off the excess cartilage. The other way is to camouflage the bump by putting filler above and below it. This creates a straight profile, which has made injection rhinoplasties very popular. However, this method doesn’t make the nose smaller. If a patient wants the bump gone and a smaller nose, surgery is the best option.
I love doing surgery in the nose and I love injecting the nose with filler. What’s right for you? I don’t know until I see you in my office. Call for a consultation, come into my office and see me, so we can decide on the best treatment for you.

I had my whole life till I was 10 a perfect little, cute and straight nose. I thought it would stay forever but now I have a really big hump in the middle :/
Me too
Why that happen tho i had a perfect nose mane
Same thing that happened to me I was 12 when I start getting mine
Me too
Exactly same thing I’m noticing my little brothers nose is perfect he’s only 8 and I hope he dosent get the nose I got
This could potentially get viewers to comment aggressively about my nose.
I always hated my dorsal hump because I felt different and insecure compared to others. I'd always dreamed of getting a rhinoplasty to remove that hindering and awful hump that people in my family made fun of generally. My parents don't have dorsal humps and I didn't even get a nose trauma in my life, I hated it so much because it didn't fit with the rest of my body. I will pray to God that I will get a better nose to modify stamina, agility, breathing, and it is not looks at all. It just didn't fit my body. Anyway, all of you are beautiful in your way! I just wanted one change on my body, cya!
Your nose is fine. Leave it be. It's what makes you unique and special. There is nothing wrong with you.
I had a dorsal hump since i was 15... because as I was walking out of my last class on a Friday afternoon a bully in my class (who i thought was a friend...) threw his jacket over my head to my feet, and pulled as hard as he could making me fall face first to the ground. I woke up in a pool of my own blood and got taken to the hospital afterwards.
Ever since i see this hump on my nose that I wanna get fixed.. But yeah that is my story and after so long i wanted to vent a little bit so thanks for reading.
I got a bump on my nose when I was almost 13 because my cousin smashed it with an ultimate Frisbee. Shit hurt like hell and left permanent damage too😂.
Always bothered me but these last 3 years I swear its been almost unbearable, my self esteem and confidence are at its lowest I don't even want people to see me anymore. I'm 19 now so it's been a bit more than 6 years.
I always find it somewhat therapeutic to read similar things happen to other people because it lets me know I'm not the only one suffering with things like this. Cuz life can feel rlly unfair at times with you sometimes thinking why does this happen to noone else and why me. So thank you for sharing you just made dealing with this easier for me.
My friend punched me on nose when I was around 15, since then I have it, it's not that big tho
Same☹️
I got hit in the face by a basketball twice and then smashed into someone. These things ruined my nose.
Ive hit my nose so many times when i was younger. I never understood why people say i look weird bc from the front i do look good. But i started to look at myself from the side and saw how my nose was shaped. I dont see it in any of my childhood pictures. Im definitely getting surgery when i can.
Bro what u said is actually with me as when I look my face from the front it is looking good but from the side it is looking wierd .
Think very hard about it. I got one from an injury as a child and I regret removing it more than anything.
@@markiis2cold891 i did. Many years of being called ugly and getting weird looks. Its definitely ruined my confidence to the extent of trying to get in a relationship. I am fortunate enough where alot of people dont really care abt how my nose is. But i know i wont regret getting the bump removed. I appreciate your advice though.
@@nysom3356 I thought I wouldn’t regret it getting removed until it somehow looked worse with it removed. The rest of your nose grew to blend with it. Just make sure you find a great surgeon to compensate every other part of your nose. Or else it’ll look deformed after.
Same with me, used to twist it a lot.
Had it, worth it
Potentially unpopular opinion: I kinda like my nose shape with a dorsal hump. I got it after falling off the stairs when I was little, and at first I hated it, but now I think it compliments my face well, and fits the style of my hair.
I do as well, but I was born with mine. It resembles an eagle’s beak and I quite like it. Many call it ugly, which is a shame, but I’d rather have stronger nose than a tiny weak one. Bigger noses helps you breathe better, too.
Bro when I was little I never had a hump. My profile was so straight but I fell down and I hurt my face and nose and grew a hump :(
I got a rhinoplasty and the hump came back but not from the profile but like sideways idk what to do
He has surgeon eyes
Does a really deviated septum cause the dorsal hump?
Docs flexin
Since everyone talking about their stories on how they got it I’ll say mine. One day it was summer I was 12 years old at the time and I wanted to touch the bottom of the pool just to do a handstand. But instead of doing a handstand I smacked the middle of my nose and it literally kinda turned pink at first, after a few days my nose started to developed a hump which actually made me sad fr because I looked good from the front but as soon as I see the side it’s totally ruined. That’s just my story lol 😭
I have one bc I’ve worn glasses since I was 8. I hate it :/
I didn't have a hump till 12 but I think it was around that age that my nose got broken, my mother has a straight nose, my father's nose doesn't have a hump either so what's up with me, what's the reason? I don't really have any problems with it, I don't think it looks bad either. I just want to know the cause, genetics or my injury.
injury
Injury but if you have no problems with how it looks and experience no difficulty with breathing or any other health problem then I wouldn't worry about it at all.
Can mewing Help to get rid of Nose bump. ?
😔
I would've never had one I didn't run into a door when I was younger
i totally need surgery lol 😂😅
No worries me too😂😭
me too don't you worrie guys
Did you do it?👀👀
I don’t understand. None of my parents have it but I have it. It really ruins my self esteem to the point where my motivation is gone. I need to fix it badly but I don’t know how
Sometimes you have to work with what you have. Once you learn to love yourself you’ll be much happier and won’t even notice your nose.
Maybe your parents had a nose job . Have you ever seen photos of their nose when they were adolescents ?
I just wanted to change my entire look. So I chose nose job 👍
You are not telling how the genetics came to the point they gave the dorsum hump fenotype.. They are characteristic for semitic populations, north-african arabs and arabs in the middle-east.
He literally did say that already...
He said that
And Jews...
@@ibanez856 I don't know if he mentioned Arabs though which are in Asia.
Oh shoot!!
3 days ago I got hit on the face with a football which gave me a bump on the right side of my nose. It’s only visible in some angles but I hate it and I hope it’s just swelling but I’m not sure. I hope it’s not permanent omg wth do I do 😭 when i glide my finger on the right side of my nose I feel a slight bump idk if its swelling or my bone but either way I hate it ughh
Is permanent?Bro, Say me truth😥 I got same too.
@@TteokbokkiZzz heyy its been 3 months it seems a bit better but its there from certain angles
It’s caused by a downswing of the maxilla, improper tongue posture causes it
That’s not true, it’s also caused by genetics, all my siblings have it, and it also has to do with what ethnicity you are. I am black mixed with Indian, I don’t have the typical African nose, I have a fat bumpy bridge with really small nostrils. I always have people coming up to me and asking how are you black but have a European nose, and I always let them no I’m mixed. For some people it’s caused by improper tounge posture but that’s not always the case.
@@christhompson7440 no kids are born at least not often at all have a dorsal hump, if you dont have it then you should not have it later in life, more than half the people in the world that have one shouldnt have one, meaning theyve had it caused by poor facial development. Another thing would be a mentalabial fold, my parents have it both my sisters have it and i do not, and same goes for them having a hooked or dorsal hump nose, my nose is straight and i do not have a mentalabial fold and they all do. its caused by facial development more so than it is genes.
@@christhompson7440 there is also cases where children get it but there parents do not have it, so did a random gene just decide to form? I dont think so. the world tries to make us worse versions of ourselves these days, mostly done with foods, medication with unnecessary side effects, and orthodontics.
@@kinghodene thank very much for posting this comment! I had doubts that improper tongue posture causes it but wasn't sure, now it all makes sense, because sadly now, I look really different from what I used to when I was a kid because I've always slept with my mouth open, didn't like to chew on hard food and had ofc had my tongue down.
I'm now working on myself and doing research to mew properly
@@kinghodene so what your basically saying, it’s unnatural to have a dorsal hump on your nose, it makes you more hideous, all noses are supposed to be straight with out a hump on it?
I'm sure this doctor is good at what he does ... but for someone who promotes Aesthetics he looks a little on the dishevelled side..
