Hump Nose Correction , depending on the cause

➤Hump Nose Correction , depending on the cause 

If the bottom area of the nasal bone on the nose bridge protrudes, in most of the time, people say it is a hump nose. Hump nose often gives a bad image when the nose bridge is higher compared to the nose tip, or although the nose bridge is not high, the nose looks bumpy. In other words, if the nose line is not smooth and is bumpy, we will often look mean, old or fierce. In particular, rather than looking from the front, the shape of the nose is more prominent when we look at it from the sides, so it may be a complex to modern people who are sensitive to the appearance.  

When we talk about hump nose, there are many people think that the nasal bone sticks out, many of them will think that they must need to do surgery that trims the bone, and think that it is burdensome. However, in fact, if we look at the people who visited our clinic for having hump nose correction, we can know that the cause of hump nose is not only related to the problem of bones. As there are various reasons causing hump nose, it is important to choose the suitable correction method. So, in this post, I will let you know the correction methods for different reasons of hump nose in detail.  

Causes of hump nose 

If we look at the beak of the nose bridge anatomically, it can be the tip of the nasal bone. That end of the nasal bone is directly connected to the bottom of the septal cartilage. Normally, for the causes of hump nose, in most of the time, it can be the excessive development of nasal septum depending on one's growth process, or it can be caused by the external physical shock. However, for the cases of Asians, as we usually have low nose lip or the bone between our eyebrows are usually low, if the size of the nose is large in general, or the nose is so low on the contrary, it may look like a hump nose. 

Methods to correct hump nose 

Like what I have mentioned before, if we could find out the cause of the hump nose, we need to choose the correction that is suitable for the situation. 

First of all, for people whose nose looks like a hump nose as the area between the eyebrows is too low compared to the nose bridge, the problem can be improved through non-surgical method, like fat graft on the area between the eyebrows or filler injection. However, for the case of filler, although it is a procedure that refills the volume of the sunken parts using ingredients that are harmless to human or that is the same with the component of human, starting from the 6 months to 1 year after the procedure, they will be absorbed by the human body slowly, so the hump nose will tend to stand out again. 

Next, for people whose nose looks like a hump nose due to the cartilage or nasal bone, the method to correct the problem is different depending on how severe the problem is. If the hump nose is not very severe, improvement can be made if we do a relatively simple procedure to rasp the protruding cartilage or bones after doing an incision inside the nose, or remove some cartilage. However, if the hump nose is severe, actually, we will need to cut off the cartilage and the bones together. In this situation, as the roof is being opened in the upper part of the nasal bone, we will need to do the surgery with a more aggressive method, osteotomy, to gather the nasal bones of the two sides. 

In addition, if the nose looks like a hump nose as the nose tip droops, it can be improved by method that raises the nose tip. Moreover, if you want a higher nose line too while correcting the hump nose, inserting implant or using autologous cartilage to raise the nose tip is a good way. Please keep in mind that to correct the nose line into a nose line that meets your needs, you will need to have sufficient consultation with medical team. 

So far, I have talked about the causes of hump nose and the corresponding correction methods. In order to have an accurate diagnose and a hump nose correction that fits your situation, you will need to check whether your bones are large or your cartilages are large through the palpation done by medical team with extensive experience. Also, you will need to check the inner part of the nose accurately and visually by taking CT. 

As mentioned earlier, among the people visited our clinic, many of them want to have hump nose correction has their noses look long, the nose tips look low, or the area between the eyebrows look low. As nose is located in the central area of the face, for the cases of these people, as trimming the beak only can also give a large improvement as mentioned before, if you are worried about the hump nose, please start with having a consultation with medical team with extensive experience.
