A bone callus is not a myth but a well-documented medical fact. In every textbook, it is described as the natural way bones heal and fuse.
However, there is an important nuance: between the nasal bones, a true bone union rarely forms. What is often referred to as a “bone callus” after rhinoplasty is, in most cases, actually a thickening of the periosteum and surrounding soft tissues caused by trauma and post-surgical swelling.
Therefore, the correct treatment in such cases is anti-edema therapy (for example, glucocorticoid medications), rather than any direct intervention with the nasal bones.
