Hello, this is Dr. Cha-Young Kang, Director of Nose Lab Clinic.

Today, I’m sharing a case of a patient who sought treatment for a hump nose, deviated nose, and nasal obstruction caused by chronic rhinitis. This case highlights how functional and aesthetic concerns can be addressed simultaneously through a carefully tailored surgical approach.

2. Medical Background & Preoperative Analysis

CT Findings: Evidence of right-sided sinusitis.
Symptoms: Chronic nasal obstruction.
Diagnosis: Hypertrophic rhinitis.

Frontal View: Deviated bridge, blunt tip, wide nasal base.
Side View: Prominent hump, droopy tip, low radix.
Oblique View: Emphasis on hump and low radix.
Nostril View: Left nostril larger and asymmetrical.

3. Surgical Plan for Hump Nose Correction

1. Hump Refinement & Deviated Nose Correction

Removal of excess bone and cartilage for a smooth nasal bridge.
Lateral osteotomy to realign nasal bones.
Silicone implant to create a refined, straight profile.

2. Tip Refinement

Realignment of alar cartilages for symmetry.
Cartilage stitching for a natural, defined tip.
Removal of excess subcutaneous tissue.
Nasolabial angle adjustment for a balanced profile.

3. Functional Corrections

Septoplasty to correct septal deviation and improve airflow.
Radiofrequency inferior turbinate reduction to alleviate nasal obstruction.

5. Postoperative Results

6. Expert Insights on Hump Nose Correction

This case demonstrates that functional and aesthetic nasal surgery can complement each other. For patients with sinus-related symptoms, functional corrections such as septoplasty and turbinate reduction are essential for improving long-term breathing and quality of life.
