First, a direct answer: The core of hooked nose correction is the "three-point linkage": lowering or removing the bridge and hump, upspinning and supporting the drooping tip, and, if necessary, adjusting the tail end of the nasal septum. Only grinding the hump without considering the tip still looks like a "hook" from the side; Only by treating all three points simultaneously can the profile line change from hooked to a straight or slightly upturned natural curve. The specific amount of osteotomy and the angle of nasal tip rotation should be determined after a medical consultation by Dr. Tang Yuxiang and other specialists. 1. What is a hooked nose: Different from a hump nose A hooked nose refers to a nose shape resembling an eagle's beak when viewed from the side, with the middle of the bridge raised and the tip drooping downward. It is often confused with a hump nose, but there is a clear difference: the hump nose problem mainly lies in the "protruding" point of the nasal bridge; Asyline nose is a combination of hump + drooping nasal tip + nasolabial angle too small...

First, a direct answer is a hump nose where the mid-nasal dorsum bone and cartilage are excessively raised, with the side resembling a "hump." The core correction involves removing excess bony/cartilaginous protrusion, then smoothing the nasal bridge into a harmonious curve through osteotomy, which usually also requires raising the nose tip to balance the overall contours. Mild humps can be temporarily improved by applying hyaluronic acid to the upper and lower parts of the nose; obvious humps require surgical removal, as injections alone will make the nose more bulging. Standardized surgery has a low recurrence rate; the key is "sufficient subtraction and smooth osteotomy." 1. How is the hump nose formed? The hump nose mainly results from excessive proliferation or development at the junction of the nasal bone and the upper lateral cartilage, which can be divided into: bony hump: mainly a nasal bone protrusion, hard texture, requiring osteotomy or bone grinding. Cartilaginous hump: characterized by nasal dorsal soft...

First, a direct answer Common nasal deformities can be divided into six categories: hump nose, saddle nose, crooked nose, hooked nose, garlic nose, and upward-facing nose. The corrective core is not "raising" but reconstructing the nasal bone and cartilage scaffold structure based on the cause (bony / cartilage / soft tissue / mixed): hump hook requires "subtraction + smoothness," saddle nose requires "structural support reconstruction," crooked nose requires "osteotomy + septum correction," "cartilage suturing + soft tissue thinning," and upward nose requires "lengthening the nasal septum." Most cases need to be completed within the comprehensive nasal framework, with moderate to severe cases often requiring autologous cartilage.
