Today, I am going to explain about ‘small dorsal hump removal‘.

Woman in Korea who has hump on their nasal bridge wants to have rhinoplasty with dorsal hump removal.

Because, if nose has hump, not only nose line is not look smooth, and also facial profile not look smooth.

In this case, rhinoplasty with hump removal and tip surgery, can make nose with better shape, and also better facial profile look.

This is a photo of before and after rhinoplasty with hump removal and tip plasty.

After small dorsal hump removal, inserted implant to her nasal dorsum to make her bridge line smooth and curved nose shape for feminine looking.

The arrow part is hump. And it is distributed between bone and cartilage.

To make nose bridge line smooth, have to remove this hump using surgical hammer and chisel. Or grind it.

The third image is to doing the lateral osteotomy to make nasal bridge narrowing.

And then inserted implant to the nasal bridge to make her nose line slightly curved.

For her tip plasty, used her nasal septum cartilage and ear cartilage.

“Nasal septum cartilage is autologous material, and has plate shape and soft. Therefore, it is a good material to use for nasal tip plasty.”

“Note. Nasal tip skin is thin, therefore, using artificial implant is not a good idea. (for example, L-shaped silicone implant)“
