Hump Nose Surgery Before and After: Balancing the Overall Look

A hump nose has a raised bridge in the middle

which can make the face look stronger

or sometimes even appear stubborn,

so it is one of the areas many people consider for surgery.

But when it comes time to decide on surgery,

many people worry that it might become unnatural,

or that it could end up looking like a so-called

"human-fish face."

I would like to talk about the key to hump nose surgery

that can reduce these concerns

and create a natural, beautiful nose.

A hump nose refers to a nose shape

with a raised middle section of the bridge.

From the side, the bridge is not a straight line

but instead rises like a bird's beak.

This hump can occur due to congenital factors

or trauma.

When correcting a hump nose,

simply shaving down the protruding part

is not enough.

It is important to lower the raised hump

while also lifting the relatively low-looking tip

to balance the overall nose.

In the case of a patient I operated on,

from the side view,

the hump in the middle of the bridge was clearly visible,

and as a result, the tip looked somewhat round

and low.

In such cases, lowering the hump

and raising the tip

can create a much more refined and natural

nose line.

Looking at the result after surgery,

the protruding hump is gone,

and the tip is higher, creating an overall

soft curve.

Even from a 45-degree angle,

the hump is lower and the tip is higher,

giving a much more three-dimensional appearance.

In the past, the middle of the bridge

received the most light,

but after surgery,

the light falls most prominently on the tip,

allowing for a more three-dimensional

and feminine impression.

When performing hump nose surgery,

the materials used are also

very important.

In most hump nose correction surgeries,

the patient's own septal cartilage is used.

Septal cartilage is the cartilage inside the nose

and is an important structure that supports the nose.

In hump nose surgery,

the height of the septum often also needs to be

adjusted,

so the removed septal cartilage is used

to adjust the tip

and create a beautiful nose shape.

I also used the patient's septal cartilage

to naturally raise the tip

and refined the overall nose line

through hump osteotomy and reconstruction.

Because the patient's own cartilage is used,

the sensation of foreign material is minimal, mand the risk of inflammatory reactions is lower,

allowing for a more natural result.

Of course, there are occasional cases

where the septal cartilage is too small

to be used,

but in most cases, satisfactory results

can be achieved with the patient's own

septal cartilage alone.

When surgery is performed using one’s own cartilage like this,

a natural and harmonious nose line can be completed,

as if it had always been your original nose.

If you are 고민하고 계신다면

about a hump nose, please consult thoroughly

with an experienced specialist

to find the natural nose line that suits you best.

Thank you. 😀
