What are the steps and precautions for hump nose correction? In mild cases, the hump nose only shows a spine-like protrusion on the bridge of the nose, which is mainly located at the junction of the lower end of the nasal femur and the lateral nasal cartilage. In severe cases, the nasal bridge is wide with angular protrusion, often accompanied by an overly long and downward curved nasal tip, resembling a “hawk’s beak”-like deformity. If there is also hypoplasia of the chin of the mandible or an oversized nasal frontal angle, the degree of humped nose will be significantly aggravated in the visual senses. Let’s take a look at the steps and precautions for hump nose correction! Steps of hump nose correction surgery: 1. Intranasal intercartilage incision is made between nasal cartilage and lateral nasal cartilage, unilaterally or bilaterally. The external nasal incision is best with a butterfly incision, and the operation is more convenient to reveal. 2. Stick to the surface of the lateral nasal cartilage and cut with blunt-tipped curved scissors while separating, after reaching the edge of the plow hole, paying attention to the thickness of the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the nasal bridge should be consistent. 3. Separate the nasal bones and maxillary nasal prominence by sticking to the nasal bones, and expose all of them until they exceed the hump. 4. Remove the excess bone from the hump, smooth out the bone file and rinse the bone debris. 5. If the nasal dorsum is too wide, chisel or saw the maxillary nasal eminence and fracture towards the midline. 6. If the tip of the nose is low and drooping, the nasal cartilage is separated, the back of the cartilage is sutured at the dome, the tip is elevated by lightly carving several knives to reduce the tension, some of the cartilage is removed, and the acute angle formed between the nasal small column and the upper lip is improved. 7. Suture the incision, fix the back of the nose with a nasal splint, fill the nasal dorsum with bilateral iodine gauze, and place a silicone tube in the middle for ventilation.
