It’s B selects the best surgical method depending on the extent and shape of the curve in your nose.

What is Hump Nose Surgery?

An Hump nose refers a human nose with a prominent bridge, giving it the appearance of being curved or convex, due to excessive growth of nasal bone and cartilage. Since the prominent bridge of a hump nose makes a strong and tough impression, it is preferable to correct the curved nasal bridge to make a gentler impression.

Hump nose’s prominent nasal bridge makes a strong and stubborn impression! Females who care about their facial appearance choose to make a gentle impression by doing Hump nose surgery.

Dorsal Hump of the Nasal Bridge: which is the bone and cartilage that connects inside and outside of nose

Noticeable Points and Precautions of hump nose surgery

The importance of spot

This part is also called the keystone of nose, which plays the most important role for the shape and supporting structure of the nasal bridge.
In order to avoid the side effect of becoming a saddle nose, the rhinoplasty should take care of not only the external nose, but also the supporting structure of the nasal septum in the internal nose. Therefore, if you decided to do the hump nose surgery, you should find a surgeon with good understanding on the supporting structure of the internal nose.

The importance of skin thickness

The skin in the middle of the bridge – hump spot is thinnest.
When eliminating the dorsal hump of the nasal bridge, straight shaving the “curve” of the nasal vault may make the dorsum depressed. Thus, the surgeon must understand exactly the skin thickness when he/she determines the nasal line and performs the rhinoplasty.

The risk that the curve of the nose remains or reoccurs

Since the skin of the nasal bridge is thinner than the rest of the nasal skin, you may feel the irregularity even after hump removal. In particular, protrusion will possibly remain due to the elasticity of the cartilage part. Therefore, an open rhinoplasty approach is effective because the surgeon can better shave the bone and cartilage until the nasal bridge achieved the right angle while looking at it directly.

Disorders such as crooked nose, nasal septum deviation, and deflection of the nasal tip

In addition to simply eliminating the dorsal hump of the nasal bridge, the surgeon should also take care of other disorders. The surgeon should also correct the nasal septum deviation in the internal nose, in order to give a stable finished nose and prevent future asymmetry.

Shaving too much may cause implant inflammation or nasal congestion

If the bone and cartilage are shaved too much where they protrude, the internal lining mucosa may possibly be shaved together. In this case, the implant will be exposed inside the nose and the nasal valve may be collapsed.

Therefore, the surgeon should preserve the internal lining mucosa and shave the dorsal hump little by little in order to prevent side effect such as inflammation and nasal congestion.

Surgical Methods of hump
nose depending on operation materials, nasal line,
and nasal heights

01. Shave only the dorsal hump: if your nose shape is good but only has protrusion in the middle of the bridge

Advantage: Simple. Not much change in facial appearance.
Disadvantage: If hump nose is severe, the nose may look long and flat due to the droopy tip of nose.

02. Filler between eyes: if the dorsal hump is not severe and nasal bridge between eyes is low

Advantage: No worries about inflammation. Can easily create a tall and straight nasal bridge.
Disadvantage: The nasal bridge may look unnatural because the nasal bridge between eyes became taller. In particular, such a nose may make a female look masculine.

03. Rhinoplasty without implant: the nasal bridge between eyes is relative tall, but the center of the nasal bridge is curved and nasal tip is droopy

Advantage: Only use your own cartilage, so a natural but prominent nose can be made with no worries of inflammation.
Disadvantage: Require many cartilage materials and meticulous surgical techniques.

04. Nasal bridge·tip augmentation using implant or cartilage: the most general case, which mainly apply to those with low hump nose

Advantage: A smooth nose line and the effect of the rhinoplasty is clear.
Disadvantage: If the skin is thin, it may show in the appearance that a plastic surgery on nose was done. On occasion, side effects may occur due to the implants.
