APEX Hump Nose The bumpy protrusion on the bridge is removed to refine the nose into a smooth, soft line. Smooth, with no protruding bump! A hump nose is caused by excessive growth of the nasal bone and septal cartilage, which makes the middle of the bridge stand out, adding years to your appearance and giving a strong impression to those around you. The degree and shape of the hump vary, but because it can make you look fierce and severe, hump nose rhinoplasty can refine the bridge and soften the impression. Trim the bumpy, protruding bridge for a refined, gentle image! Add dimension to a smooth bridge!

Surgery

APEX Hump Nose surgical method

How is APEX hump nose surgery performed?

When the hump is not severe

When the dorsal hump is mild

The protruding area is rasped down with a surgical instrument. Because rasping alone can let the hump return,
The septal cartilage is usually removed along with the osteotomy.

Before surgery

Hump removal

Shaving down only the hump, or osteotomy

After surgery

A smooth nose line

In severe cases

When the dorsal hump protrudes severely

Rasping alone rarely produces an effective result; the protruding area — that is, the raised nasal bone where bone meets cartilage — together with
The lateral cartilage and the septal cartilage must be cut through completely. This leaves a long opening on the outer side of the nasal bone and cartilage, and
an open roof is created. To close that roof again, the nasal bones are brought together from both sides.
