Can use fillers for certain types of noses.
There is no way to get rid of a nose hub without surgery. One can camouflage the prominence of a nose hump by injecting filler above and or below it. However, this makes the nose bigger and often eliminates the indentation between the forehead and the nose, rendering the nose like a Greek or Roman statue, with an inadequate indentation between the forehead and nose. This is a very masculine look and is rather inappropriate for a woman. A really pretty nose on a woman begins between the eyes with a fairly deep indentation between the forehead and the upper portion of the nose called the glabella notch. Filler injections to the nose can also be dangerous because the filler can be inadvertently injected into an artery in the skin of the nose, which could cause permanent loss of a large patch of skin from the nose, which would be a cosmetic disaster. There are some plastic surgeons who have judiciously used fillers in the nose, but I have avoided this modality particularly for bumps. As a filler, it is used more appropriately to enlarge or fill. Therefore, to fill in a tiny dent or add prominence to an inadequately projecting tip makes more sense.
Thank you for your inquiry.

In some cases, you could do dorsal filler that will help camouflage the bump, but, in most cases, surgery would be your only option.

Not possible. See an ENT regarding this matter
