Extended cartilage/bone

Question

Asked for Male, 19 Years

I have extended cartilage or bone above my nose, between my eyes. It was small at birth but now it is of around 12-14 mm diameter and it's slowly increasing. I have consulted several doctors but didn't get any satisfactory result. What should I do? Is surgery a safe option to remove it? Or specific doctor to consult?
