<Actual rhinoplasty case by DM Plastic Surgery>

Because the nose is at the center of the face, it has a major impact on your impression.

As rhinoplasty has become as common as double eyelid surgery, the technical level has improved even further.

If surgery is performed with facial balance and harmony in mind, natural-looking rhinoplasty is possible, so it is best to receive surgery from a specialist with accurate diagnosis and extensive clinical experience, which can lead to highly satisfying results!

There are various nose shapes, just like there are various eye shapes.

A straight bridge with a high tip is generally considered the ideal nose shape, but there are also nose types where the bridge protrudes and gives a sharp impression.

The nose type mentioned above is called a hooked nose because it resembles the beak of a hawk.

It can be caused congenitally by excessive development of the nasal bone and cartilage, or acquired through trauma such as wearing glasses.

When viewed from the side, the bone and cartilage in the bridge area may appear raised and uneven, with the tip looking drooped, and nasal deviation often accompanying it. So it is important to apply the appropriate correction method through sufficient consultation.

Although nose surgery may seem simple, the inside of the nose has a very complex structure, so it is better to establish and carry out a customized plan that suits the face.

Hooked noses often come with functional issues as well, so it is important to improve the internal function along with the external appearance. The surgical method varies depending on the degree of the hump, and by removing the protruding area in the middle of the bridge and raising the tip to harmonize with the bridge, the nose can be improved to look smoother and more three-dimensional.

I will explain in detail how hooked noses can be improved :D

Hooked noses often involve not only protruding bone, but also functional problems.

Because the development of the nasal bone also causes the cartilage inside the nose to bend, breathing can become difficult, so it is important to improve both the appearance and the functional aspects through a specialist with extensive clinical experience.

In severe cases, the hump is removed and the bone is cut. After fixing the widened bridge bone with osteotomy, septal cartilage or ear cartilage is inserted into the tip to create an ideal nose shape in line with the forehead and bridge.

If the hump is not severe, the protruding bone and cartilage are shaved down and removed. If the bridge is low, an implant is inserted, and septal cartilage or ear cartilage is inserted into the tip to create a harmonious line that suits the face and improve it into an ideal nose shape.

Because it is a protruding area, it is important to cut the nasal bone and cartilage and correct it so that the bone does not grow back. To achieve satisfying results, it is important to undergo surgery with the most harmonious line and appropriate method for yourself through thorough consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist who has experience with a variety of cases.
