Hello. We are Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic, pursuing natural and beautiful changes.
Have you heard of the term "uncanny valley"?
The uncanny valley was originally a term used in robotics theory, and it was a theory that defined the emotions humans feel toward robots or non-human objects.
The closer a robot resembles a human, the more positive the feeling humans have, but if the resemblance goes too far and the appearance is similar while the behavior takes on robotic traits, it can instead trigger a negative sense of rejection.
In this way, people tend to instinctively reject things that feel unsettling.
When facing someone, whether by yourself or with another person, if that person's appearance, including their behavior, gives off an artificial and unnatural feeling, it tends to work against their likability as well.
In particular, because the nose plays the role of a pillar at the center of the face, it is also an important factor that affects first impressions when meeting someone face-to-face.
Generally speaking, when people talk about an ideal nose shape, women are often associated with a thin and well-defined look, while men are associated with a nose that has a moderate thickness and a straight, refreshing line.
In this way, many people prefer a nasal bridge that is symmetrical and smoothly extended without sharp angles.
If the bony prominence in the middle of the nasal bridge is especially突出, it can make the face appear somewhat stern or older, and this can be improved.
Therefore, if the nose shape has a prominent hump, it can be improved through Gongdeok hump nose correction surgery.
Today, we will explain Gongdeok hump nose correction surgery, which varies depending on the severity of the condition.
What Is a Hump Nose?

As mentioned earlier, a hump nose refers to a nasal bridge that is bent or curved.
It is named after a hawk's beak because the bridge of the nose rises prominently while the tip droops downward, resembling a hawk's beak.
It can give a stubborn or fierce impression and may also make a person look older than their age.
It can occur congenitally due to excessive development of the nasal bone and cartilage or due to deformity of the septal cartilage, and it can also develop later in life as a result of external trauma.

Recommended Candidates for Gongdeok Hump Nose Correction Surgery
✅ When the middle of the nasal bridge protrudes
✅ When the nasal tip is lower than the bridge
✅ When the nasal bridge is large and wide along with the hump
✅ When the entire face appears longer due to a hump nose
✅ When the hump nose gives a strong, stubborn impression
How Is Gongdeok Hump Nose Correction Surgery Performed?
Gongdeok hump nose correction surgery can remove the hump and improve the nasal bridge into a smoother shape and a softer impression, depending on the height of the bridge, the severity of the hump, and the width of the nasal bones.

✅ When the hump is not severe and the nasal bridge is high
If the hump is not severe and both the nasal bridge and nasal tip are high, only the hump area can be shaved down or the bone can be cut and reshaped to create a smooth nasal bridge.

✅ When the hump is severe and the nasal bridge is low
After removing the protruding portion of the bridge, an implant can be inserted over the flattened bridge, and the nasal tip can be raised with autologous tissue to create the ideal nose line desired by the individual.
At this time, if autologous tissue is to be used, it is possible to improve the nose into a smooth bridge without removing the hump by inserting autologous tissue into the sunken areas above and below the hump.
In particular, hump nose can be accompanied by functional problems such as a deviated septum as the nose becomes deformed.
Therefore, rather than focusing only on changes in appearance when considering surgery, it is important to receive treatment at a place that can establish a surgical plan through a comprehensive analysis.
By analyzing the patient's condition

The Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic, which introduced Gongdeok hump nose correction surgery today, closely analyzes each patient's different nasal condition and establishes a 1:1 customized surgical plan.
In particular, since the nose is the area that controls breathing and smell, it is important to preserve its original functional aspects without affecting the nerves.
At our clinic, we create surgical plans by analyzing the inside of the nose with 3D CT and strive for careful surgery that reduces the margin of error.
For this, it is best to work with medical staff who have extensive experience and anatomical knowledge.
At our clinic, all processes from consultation to analysis, surgery, and aftercare are carried out without changing the medical staff, so you can expect care from medical staff who have a high level of understanding of your condition.
