Q. If I have a hump nose shaved down, does it also help correct a deviated septal cartilage nose? image 1

� Hello. I am Kim Hyung-taek, CEO and chief surgeon of Kowon Plastic Surgery Clinic, and I am here to walk with you through the process of creating a better version of yourself.

Today, someone who was considering hump nose surgery said they asked because they wanted to know whether shaving down a hump nose also has the effect of correcting a crooked nose.

� Q. If I have a hump nose shaved down, does it also help correct a deviated septal cartilage nose?

� My nose has a slight hump, but it also looks somewhat crooked,ㅠㅠ

  1. If I get hump nose surgery, will the crooked-looking part become less noticeable? Or will it look even more severe?

My nasal bridge and tip are both high, so I decided to only have cartilage work and hump shaving done..

� And another question is

  1. I think the reason my nose looks crooked is not just because the hump sticks out forward..

I feel like it may also protrude slightly to the sideㅠ

So the protruding part is both the side and the front...

In cases like this, when doing hump surgery, do they also smooth the side, even if they do not shave it directly? Or do they only shave the front?

� 3. Could it be that the hump nose itself makes the nose look crooked..?ㅠㅠ

--> In most cases, people with hump noses also have noses that are crooked.

Therefore, the crooked nose is corrected together with hump surgery.

If you feel that the degree of crookedness is not severe, hump shaving alone may be performed without correcting the crooked nose.

In cases like this, when doing hump surgery, do they also smooth the side, even if they do not shave it directly? Or do they only shave the front?

� --> In general, while removing the hump, the protruding area on the side is also corrected at the same time.

However, this seems like something you should ask the surgeon performing the operation.

� � � 3. Could it be that the hump nose itself makes the nose look crooked..?ㅠㅠ

� --> Rather than the hump itself making the nose look crooked, the usual reason is that the septal cartilage is deviated, making the entire nose look crooked.

Of course, the bone itself may also be crooked.

Therefore, the exact situation can only be explained after an in-person examination.

But statistically, cases where the septal cartilage is deviated are more common.

I hope you get a good result.

I hope this consultation answer was helpful.

Thank you.

� This was a case where the nose was originally high and had a hump.

By performing osteotomy, narrowing and lowering the nasal bridge to create a smoother line, the face became much younger and more feminine.

� This was a case that could be classified as having a hump nose, a long nose, and a crooked nose, and osteotomy was performed together.

Looking at the result after surgery, you can see that the crooked appearance has been properly corrected.

� This was a patient with a long nose and a hump. Because there was a slight hump on the nasal bridge, shaving surgery was performed as well.

After surgery, you can see a much sharper and higher-looking result.

If you are concerned about your side profile because of a hump nose, you can find the line that best harmonizes with your features through a thorough consultation.

At Kowon Plastic Surgery Clinic, we perform hump nose surgery that precisely analyzes the structure of the nose and creates a smooth, refined side profile.
