Septoplasty and Hump Nose Surgery Review, Considering Function Too

Hello, this is OJIKO Hospital & Plus, dedicated solely to your healthy and beautiful nose.

This time, we are introducing a review of hump nose surgery that also takes function into account.

#&Plus Hump Nose Surgery Review

When people think of rhinoplasty, they often first look for information with the idea of creating a fuller nose shape—using silicone for the bridge and autologous cartilage for the tip correction. However, because each person has a different nose shape and therefore different concerns, surgery may proceed in different ways. For the low-nose case mentioned above, surgery is performed using the methods commonly known in rhinoplasty. But when there is a hump or the bridge is uneven and bumpy, additional procedures such as osteotomy or resection may be needed. That is why people who need these shape corrections are often especially interested in reviews of hump nose surgery.

The nose is located at the center of the face and is one of the most three-dimensional features among the facial features, so even a small change can have a big effect on improving the overall impression. Likewise, if the nose is slightly crooked, bumpy, protruding, or drooping, changes in its shape can feel very significant. For those considering hump nose surgery, this can lead to a greater sense of concern than with other areas.

What is hump nose surgery? It refers to a condition in which the tip of the nose droops like a hawk's beak, or the nasal bridge is crooked or bumpy. The causes of a hump nose can be broadly divided into congenital and acquired causes. In general, hump noses are often caused by trauma as an acquired cause, but a hump can also be present due to genetic factors. In such cases, hump nose surgery removes the hump, smooths and designs the nasal bridge, and lifts the drooping tip to correct it. Therefore, if you look into reviews of hump nose surgery, you will see that different surgical methods are applied depending on each person's symptoms.

Types that may require hump nose surgery include a drooping or upturned tip, a crooked bridge, a wide nasal bone, an aquiline nose, a mild or severe hump, or a high hump. There are many different types, and the surgical method also varies accordingly. In some cases, a hump nose can be identified visually, but depending on the type and condition mentioned above, the internal structure is difficult to confirm with the naked eye. Therefore, it is essential to accurately examine the inside of the nose and proceed with a surgical method suited to your condition.

Therefore, while looking into hump nose surgery reviews, it can be helpful to find noses with shapes similar to your own. In addition, as mentioned above, the nose plays a very important external role, but it is also an important organ responsible for breathing and smell within the body. So rather than approaching it only as cosmetic rhinoplasty for appearance, checking the internal function as well before proceeding can lead to much higher satisfaction after surgery.

At OJIKO Hospital & Plus, to help ensure a satisfying hump nose surgery review, we use 3D-CT imaging and internal endoscopic examination before surgery to accurately identify each person's internal nasal function issues, the size of the nasal bones, the presence of cartilage, and the location and size of the hump. Based on the extracted data, we perform hump nose surgery using a surgical method tailored to each individual.

Hump nose surgery can be broadly divided into three methods: cases with a high bridge hump, cases with a low bridge hump, and cases with only a very slight hump.

In cases of a hump nose with a high nasal bridge, the hump on the bridge is removed or osteotomy is performed. Silicone is not used in the bridge, and only the tip is corrected with autologous cartilage to improve the overall nose shape.

In cases of a hump nose with a low nasal bridge, the hump on the bridge is removed or osteotomy is performed, silicone is inserted into the bridge, and the tip is corrected with autologous cartilage to improve the overall nose shape.

In cases where the hump is mild, the hump on the bridge is removed, the tip is corrected with autologous cartilage, and the connection area along the bridge line is also corrected with autologous cartilage to improve the overall nose shape. In this way, different surgical methods are applied depending on the size and condition of the hump, but the key to hump nose surgery is to remove the hump completely in order to prevent recurrence.

As for the materials used in hump nose surgery, if you look at hump nose surgery reviews, you can see that different types of autologous cartilage are used for each individual. The materials are also selected through preoperative examination to suit the individual, and autologous cartilage includes septal cartilage, ear cartilage, and autologous rib cartilage. If the use of autologous cartilage is unavoidably difficult, donated rib cartilage approved by the U.S. FDA is used.

In addition, for the silicone used to correct the bridge, instead of using an existing mass-produced silicone implant as is, a custom-designed implant is used after considering various aspects such as the person's overall image, the width of the bridge, its length, and its breadth. This can lead to a more satisfying hump nose surgery review than conventional surgery.

Lastly, at OJIKO Hospital & Plus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally oversees everything one-on-one, from consultation about hump nose surgery to surgical planning, the procedure itself, treatment, and follow-up care.
