Correcting a Bump on the Nose Through Rhinoplasty

Hello, I’m Dr. Michael Sullivan, facial plastic surgeon at the Sullivan Center for plastic and cosmetic surgery in Columbus, Ohio. I specialize in Rhinoplasty Surgery. Welcome to whiteboard Wednesday. It’s the Sullivan Center series on Rhinoplasty and today we’re going to talk about the bump on the nose.

What is it? Well when patients oftentimes refer to the bump, it’s that upper portion, the bridge of the nose which is made up of cartilage and bone which is overdeveloped. Sometimes that’s the result of injury, oftentimes it’s just something that we inherit from our parents.

When I do surgery to remove the bump on the nose, I’m removing some of that cartilage and bone. I have an illustration of the nose from the base here. So when you’re looking straight up here’s what you see. The nostrils on either side, in the midline we have what is called the nasal septum, that’s what separates the right side of the nose from the left, and then on the sides it’s the nasal bones. Think of it like a pyramid.

When I do surgery to remove the bump, what I’m doing is, I’m removing that top of the pyramid, taking off this upper portion of the bone and cartilage here and then we make a little control break in the bone here to allow the nasal bones to come back in on either side. And that’s what reduces that bump and it brings the sidewalls back in, so we get that nice curve of the skin over top of the bone.

Welcome to Columbus Facial Plastics at The Sullivan Centre.

We believe that healthy, youthful renewal begins with science. Founded in 1996 by Dr. Michael and Christine Sullivan, our practice was the first of its kind in central Ohio. For 20+ years, The Sullivan Centre has led the way in advancing the science of beauty and providing only the safest and most effective surgical and non-surgical treatments for our patients.

I met Dr. Mike, Dr. Chris and the rest of the team in 2014 and have had the incredible opportunity to train and collaborate with Dr. Mike for the past five years. I officially joined The Sullivan Centre in September 2019 and could not be more excited to lead this exceptional practice into the future.

My goal is to provide you with the education and expertise needed to help you feel confident with your decision to pursue surgical or non-surgical treatment. I am proud to be a part of a highly skilled team that delivers personalized care so that you feel comfortable through every step of the process.

In addition to practicing exclusively in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, I also serve as the medical director for our non-surgical services. We are fortunate to have two of the most experienced aesthetic providers in central Ohio in their respective fields. Dina Maynard and Nancy Cotterman, RN have been caring for patients at The Sullivan Centre for a combined 25 years! You won’t find anyone with more training or skill.

Spend as much time as you need learning more about our team and the services we provide. We are passionate about what we do, and we would love to see you soon.
