Nose Hump Correction for a Smooth Bridge!

 Nose Hump Correction for a Smooth Bridge!



The nose occupies the center of the face and significantly influences a person's image.  Thus, the impression one makes can drastically change depending on the shape, height, length of the bridge, and the angle and position of the tip of the nose.

Many women consider the hump nose, commonly found in Asians and giving a masculine and intense impression, as a complex. In severe cases, it conjures up the image of a spiteful witch from cartoons, so many seek to improve this through nose hump correction surgery.

The nose is not only important for its three-dimensional appearance but also functionally, so one should not focus solely on improving the visible parts without consideration. Let's take a detailed look at what to be cautious about when undergoing this surgery.


➤What is Hump Nose?



A hump nose generally refers to a nose where the middle of the bone forming the bridge protrudes outward. The protruding part being higher than the tip can make the overall height of the nose appear lower. Not just specific areas but cases where the entire bridge is uneven also require nose hump correction surgery. People with such noses tend to have a strong and sometimes harsh appearance, making many consider it a complex.


➤Hump Nose Surgery Method

Improvement may be difficult with simple bone cutting due to the current state requiring a more complex process, so it is recommended to consult to understand how the surgery will be conducted specifically. 




The surgical method varies depending on how much the bridge protrudes. If the hump is not too severe, an incision inside the nose is made, and only the protruding part is shaved off, with autologous cartilage or an implant inserted to raise the tip. However, in severe cases, after the protruding bone and cartilage are cut through an osteotomy, a lateral osteotomy is performed to prevent the bridge itself from widening.


This allows the nasal bones to come together, and if you wish to further raise the bridge, you can smooth it out with an implant like silicone. The common goal of those seeking surgical correction to find the ideal line is aesthetic improvement.




While it's true that this tendency has become more pronounced with the arrival of an era that values appearance, there's still a trend preferring natural beauty over artificial alterations. Therefore, it's not a wise choice to simply cut off the protruding parts and raise the nose during hump nose correction.

In other words, the design that suits each individual varies, and there are many details to consider regarding the surgery, such as which parts to osteotomize, whether to use implants or autologous cartilage, etc.




Thus, our clinic meticulously checks these aspects through thorough consultation before surgery and establishes a specific plan. So, if you have complexes about your nose line, we recommend you comfortably seek consultation.

Everything You Need to Know Before Getting a Nose Job in Korea [Jayjun Plastic Surgery Q&A]

Everything You Need to Know Before Getting a Nose Job in Korea [Jayjun Plastic Surgery Q&A] Today, we have compiled clear answers from a Jayjun Plastic Surgery specialist in Korea to frequently asked questions by patients who are considering rhinoplasty.  Please note that surgical methods and outcomes may vary depending on the individual, so use this information as a general guide. Q1. Can the nasal tip be raised and improved naturally using only septal cartilage? Yes, it can be possible, although it depends on individual conditions. In the past, surgeries were done using only septal cartilage, and even now, if the conditions allow, natural and sophisticated results can be achieved with septal cartilage alone. However, if the nose is very small or upturned (short nose), cartilage alone may not provide enough support, so a stronger structure is needed to fix the tip. In such cases, rib cartilage (autologous or donated) may be used. In principle, if there are no major nasal issue...
