Correction of Bulbous Nose + Hump Nose + Long Nose: Before and After
This post details a female patient's rhinoplasty to correct a bulbous, hump, and long nose, along with a low bridge and tip, using silicone, ear cartilage, and septal cartilage.

Hello. This is VIBE Plastic Surgery.
Today, we would like to show you a case of rhinoplasty for a female patient who had a bulbous nose, a hump nose, and a long nose.
Additionally, her existing nasal bridge and tip were low.
For the materials, silicone was used for the nasal bridge,
and ear cartilage and septal cartilage were used for the nasal tip.
Since her septum was quite large,
we were able to proceed without using additional donated costal cartilage.
Shall we take a look at how her nose became beautifully sculpted?

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used for bulbous nose and hooked nose correction?
In this case, silicone was used for the bridge of the nose, and ear cartilage and septal cartilage were used for the nasal tip. The appropriate implant and autologous cartilage are custom-selected for the surgery based on the patient's nose condition and the existing height of the bridge and tip of the nose.
Is donor rib cartilage always necessary for nose surgery?
No, it is not always necessary. In this surgical case, the patient's autologous septal cartilage was quite large, so successful nasal tip correction could be achieved without the additional use of donor rib cartilage.
When can I check the progress after surgery?
Typically, you can clearly see the before-and-after difference starting one month after the surgery. In the main text, we also compare side, 45-degree side, and frontal photos from before surgery and one month after surgery to show the changes in nose shape.
What side effects can occur after nose surgery?
Yes, after nose surgery, complications or side effects such as asymmetry, inflammation, infection, or bleeding may occur depending on the individual. Therefore, sufficient consultation with a specialist before surgery is necessary, and it is important to strictly follow the precautions given after surgery.
